#Netduino NTP Client A library for interacting with a network time server
##Download
You can download the latest version of this library on NuGet. To install netduino-ntp-client
, run the following command from the package manager console:
PM> Install-Package AngrySquirrel.Netduino.NtpClient
More information about NuGet package is avaliable at https://nuget.org/packages/AngrySquirrel.Netduino.NtpClient/.
##Using the Library Using the client is easy! If you simply want to set the time on your Netduino, this is all you need:
var coordinatedUniversalTime = NtpClient.GetDateTime();
var localTime = coordinatedUniversalTime.AddHours(-4); // Convert from UTC to your local time
Utility.SetLocalTime(localTime);
If you want more control, you can build your own NTP request and examine the response using the Send(NtpPacket, string, int)
method.
