## ⏬ Install <a name="install"></a>

Welcome to the installation guide for the EEG UHB Library! Whether you're setting up a controlled virtual environment or installing system-wide, follow these steps to get started quickly. For optimal compatibility and to avoid conflicts with other Python packages, we strongly recommend using a virtual environment. Also, it is necessary to have the UHB software, see “Dependencies” section.

### 🐍 <a name="inEnv"></a> Installation in a Python virtual environment 

1. Open a terminal or Anaconda Prompt.
2. Create a new virtual environment (for example: myenv):

- Using a Command Prompt (Windows/Linux/Mac):

```bash
python -m venv myenv
```

- Using Anaconda Prompt:

```bash
conda create --name myenv
```

3. Enable the virtual environment:
- Windows:

```bash
myenv\Scripts\activate
```

- Anaconda Prompt:

```bash
conda activate myenv
```

- macOS/Linux:

```bash
source myenv/bin/activate
```

4. Install the library inside the virtual environment:

```bash
pip install eeg-uhb
```
### 🔽 <a name="pypi"></a> Install on the whole system 

You can install the library directly from PyPI using pip:

```bash
pip install eeg-uhb
```

### :octocat: <a name="fromGithub"></a> Installation from GitHub (optional) 

If you want to install the latest version directly from the repository, run:

```bash
pip install git+https://github.com/IngAmaury/EEG_UHB_LIBRARY.git
```

> [!NOTE]
> You should install it in a virtual environment to avoid conflicts with other system libraries. If you do not know the procedure to do it in a virtual environment go back to the “Installation in a Python virtual environment” section.

### 🔨 Dependencies <a name="requirements"></a>

The library requires the following dependencies, which will be installed automatically with pip:
- numpy
- pylsl
- scipy
- scikit-fuzzy
  
🔻🔻🔻
> [!IMPORTANT]
> If you want to make the acquisition with Unicorn Hybrid Black you need to install [Unicorn Suite Hybrid Black](https://github.com/unicorn-bi/Unicorn-Suite-Hybrid-Black-User-Manual/blob/main/UnicornSuite.md#install-unicorn-suite-hybrid-black), You can also watch their [video tutorial](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LOfIr2F7-Tc). Within the application, you will need to install the Unicorn Recorder from the Apps section or the Unicorn LSL from the DevTools section.
  
🔺🔺🔺

## 🔄 Upgrade or uninstall <a name="upgrade-uninstall"></a>

Already had an older version of the library, you can updated to the latest version with the code:

```bash
pip install --upgrade eeg-uhb
```

If you no longer wish to have the library installed, activate the virtual environment where you installed it and run it:

```bash
pip uninstall eeg-uhb -y
```

## 🎯 Use example <a name="example"></a>

If you are acquiring through the Unicorn LSL Interface, see the image below, you can use the example code below the image, you must put in the start_adquisition function in the stream_name attribute the same name that you put in the “Streamname” box inside the LSL settings of the Unicorn LSL.

> [!TIP]
> If you have never used the Unicorn LSL Interface before, we recommend that you read its user [documentation](https://github.com/unicorn-bi/Unicorn-Network-Interfaces-Hybrid-Black/blob/main/LSL/unicorn-lsl-interface.md).

![Unicorn Hybrid Black acquisition tool using LSL protocol](docs/images/UnicornLSL.png)

```python
from eeg_uhb import EEGAcquisitionManager
import time

if __name__=='__main__':
    EEG = EEGAcquisitionManager()
    start_time = time.time()
    duration = 0.04  # segundos

    '''
    # Connect to any available stream without saving
    eeg.start_acquisition(stream_name='UN-2023.07.40')  

    # Connect to specific stream and save data
    eeg.start_acquisition(stream_name='UN-2023.07.40', 
                        save=True,
                        save_path='./eeg_data/')
    '''
    
    # the stream_name depends on the one you choose
    EEG.start_acquisition(stream_name='UN-2023.07.40', save=True)
    start = time.sleep(duration)
    print(EEG.data)
    print(f'Length: {len(EEG.data)}')
    EEG.stop_acquisition()
```

If you are acquiring through the Unicorn Recorder App, see the image below, you can use the example code below the image, you must not put anything in start_acquisition in the stream_name attribute as the app assigns one internally, the other attributes can be used as normal.

![Unicorn Recorder App acquisition tool](docs/images/UnicornRecorder.png)

```python
from eeg_uhb import EEGAcquisitionManager
import time

if __name__=='__main__':
    EEG = EEGAcquisitionManager()
    start_time = time.time()
    duration = 0.04  # segundos

    '''
    # Connect stream and save data
    eeg.start_acquisition(save=True, save_path='./eeg_data/')
    '''
    
    # the stream_name depends on the one you choose
    EEG.start_acquisition()
    start = time.sleep(duration)
    print(EEG.data)
    print(f'Length: {len(EEG.data)}')
    EEG.stop_acquisition()
```

### 🟢 Class Methods <a name="methods"></a>

Methods within EEGAcquisitionManager Class.

#### 🔵 `resolve_eeg_stream(name = None, timeout = 1)`

Static method that searches and resolves an EEG data stream available through the **Lab Streaming Layer (LSL)** protocol.

**Parameters:**
- `name` *(None | str)*: Specific name of the EEG stream to search for. If `None`, it will search by default for a stream of type `EEG`.
- `timeout` *(float)*: Maximum waiting time (in seconds) to resolve the flow (default: 1).

**Return**:
- Returns the EEG stream found or an empty list if none is found.

**Example:**
```python
from eeg_uhb import EEGAcquisitionManager

stream = EEGAcquisitionManager.resolve_eeg_stream()
```

#### 🔵 `start_acquisition(stream_name = None, save = False, save_path = None)`

Starts EEG data acquisition.

**Parameters:**
- `stream_name` *(None | str)*: Tag that identifies an LSL data stream. (default: `None`).
- `save` *(bool)*: If `True`, saves the data in `save_path`, otherwise it creates a “Data” folder in the current project. (default: `False`)
- `save_path` *(None | str)*: If `True`, serves as path to store the data (default: `None`).

**Return:**
- `True` if the acquisition was started correctly, otherwise `False`.

**Example:**
```python
eeg.start_acquisition(
    save=True,
)
```

#### 🔵 `stop_acquisition()`
Stops the acquisition and closes open files.

**Example:**
```python
# it is necessary to have used before: start_acquisition()
eeg.stop_acquisition(
    save=True,
)
```
