How to measure power consumption of my application on Android?

I have developed an Android application and I would like to know the power consumption of my app on an Android device. I came across various threads on Stack Overflow but none of them helped me.

Is there any application in Android which measures the power consumption of my app or any other viable method?

Edited

From the answers of this Stack Overflow post:

I used "Battery Historian" and generated batteryinfo.txt and batteryinfo.html

The Batteryinfo.txt is as follows

Battery History:

When I open Batteryinfo.html it displaying "Cannot Find End Time".

I followed the answers in the below post and commented out the code as mentioned

Battery historian cannot find end time android

This time when I run the command to generate batteryinfo.html from batteryinfo.html it displaying an error (which is referrinf to the commented out code of 3 lines).

NOTE: As my device is not supporting to use batterystats and so am using batteryinfo.

I want to open the batteryinfo.html with the details.

I don't know what you mean by can't read estimated value in the setting.

Look at my answer in Android App power consumption

" First, the powertutor from Google Play is out of date. I've checked the source code of it, and find that the power estimation model is for some old mobile model. The value from power tutor is way smaller than the actual power consumption.

Therefore, I would recommend to use Battery Historian which is development by google used to estimate battery consumption of each App. But it's written in Python/Go. It will show the hardware invocation in a html file. And you can find battery consumption of each App in a corresponding text file.

https://developer.android.com/studio/profile/battery-historian.html "

It will create a batterystats.txt, showing exactly the same as it in the setting.
