I had this running on a raspberry pi a while back (now using open energy monitor)
https://git.sr.ht/~eliotb/power-monitor

pulsein.py uses GPIO interrupt both to count pulses, and to measure the interval between pulses
to estimate the instantaneous power consumption.
Beware this is just a dump of experimental code.
