Description
The Green Metrics Tool is a developer tool indented for measuring the energy and CO2 consumption of software through a software life cycle analysis (SLCA).
It is designed to re-use existing infrastructure and testing files as much as possible to be easily integratable into every software repository and create transparency around software energy consumption.
Methodology
- tool is primarily designed to measure containerized applications
- uses runtime metrics from every container to measure, performance metrics and some metrics retrieved on a system level (like CPU energy or DRAM energy)
- uses the concept Standard Usage Scenario introduced by the team from Blauer Engel fΓΌr Software to be able to understand how an application would typically behave under real-world use cases
- for the purpose of reproducibility and open data the team provide a central repository for all measurements they make to compare measurements on a prepared fixed machine: Green Metrics Frontend
- Attribution of network traffic: GMT assumes that all traffic is with external services. If that's not the case, the energy consumption is greatly overestimated

Usage with GitHub Codespaces
GitHub Codespaces is using per default Ubuntu 20.04.6 LTS (as of 2024-07-08).
See https://github.com/green-coding-solutions/green-metrics-tool/blob/codespaces/.devcontainer/splash.md
Upgrade to glib 2.68 as documented is not required, because g_string_replace is only required for the metric provider lm-sensors (temperatures).
