Hi Michael,
I have a small embedded device (
https://www.espruino.com) that doesn’t have a real-time clock or NTP library support but it does have networking and WiFi.
Additionally, it has library support for setting the devices date from ISO 8601 time string.
On bring up, the device could contact
time.google.com, get the current time, and set the devices time to that time. Would be even cooler if based on the IP address, the response could estimate the TZ information.
I do see (via curl) that the redirect response does include the “Date” header but I don’t think the Espruino library has support for extracting the header information, just the returned data.
Dan
