## Installation

Use the package manager pip to install foobar.

```bash
pip install enfobench
```

## Usage

Download the HuggingFace Dataset ['EDS-lab/electricity-demand'](https://huggingface.co/datasets/EDS-lab/electricity-demand),
and download the files from the data folder to your computer.

```python
import pandas as pd

from enfobench import Dataset
from enfobench.datasets import ElectricityDemandDataset
from enfobench.evaluation import cross_validate, evaluate_metrics
from enfobench.evaluation.metrics import mean_bias_error, mean_absolute_error, root_mean_squared_error

# Load the dataset from the folder that you downloaded the files to.
ds = ElectricityDemandDataset("/path/to/the/dataset/folder/that/contains/all/subsets")

# List all meter ids
ds.list_unique_ids()

# Get one of the meter ids
unique_id = ds.list_unique_ids()[0]

# Get dataset for a specific meter id
target, past_covariates, metadata = ds.get_data_by_unique_id(unique_id)

# Create a dataset
dataset = Dataset(
    target=target,
    past_covariates=past_covariates,
    future_covariates=None,
    metadata=metadata
)

# Import your model and instantiate it
model = MyForecastModel()

# Run cross validation on your model
cv_results = cross_validate(
    model,
    dataset,
    start_date=pd.Timestamp("2018-01-01"),
    end_date=pd.Timestamp("2018-01-31"),
    horizon=pd.Timedelta("24 hours"),
    step=pd.Timedelta("1 day"),
)

# Simply pass in the cross validation results and the metrics you want to evaluate.
metrics = evaluate_metrics(
    cv_results,
    metrics={
        "MBE": mean_bias_error,
        "MAE": mean_absolute_error,
        "RMSE": root_mean_squared_error,
    },
)
```

To get started with some examples check out the `models` folder and the [examples](https://attila-balint-kul.github.io/energy-forecast-benchmark-toolkit/examples) section of the documentation.

## Benchmarking

Once confident in your model, you can submit for evaluation.
The results of the benchmarks are openly accessible through various dashboards. The links you can find above.
