Project description

Introduction

Documentation Status Discord Build Status

Network Time Protocol (NTP) helper for CircuitPython.

Dependencies

This driver depends on:

Please ensure all dependencies are available on the CircuitPython filesystem. This is easily achieved by downloading the Adafruit library and driver bundle.

Installing from PyPI

On supported GNU/Linux systems like the Raspberry Pi, you can install the driver locally from PyPI. To install for current user:

pip3 install adafruit-circuitpython-ntp

To install system-wide (this may be required in some cases):

sudo pip3 install adafruit-circuitpython-ntp

To install in a virtual environment in your current project:

mkdir project-name && cd project-name
python3 -m venv .env
source .env/bin/activate
pip3 install adafruit-circuitpython-ntp

Usage Example

import time
import board
import busio
from digitalio import DigitalInOut
from adafruit_esp32spi import adafruit_esp32spi
from adafruit_ntp import NTP

# If you are using a board with pre-defined ESP32 Pins:
esp32_cs = DigitalInOut(board.ESP_CS)
esp32_ready = DigitalInOut(board.ESP_BUSY)
esp32_reset = DigitalInOut(board.ESP_RESET)

# If you have an externally connected ESP32:
# esp32_cs = DigitalInOut(board.D9)
# esp32_ready = DigitalInOut(board.D10)
# esp32_reset = DigitalInOut(board.D5)

spi = busio.SPI(board.SCK, board.MOSI, board.MISO)
esp = adafruit_esp32spi.ESP_SPIcontrol(spi, esp32_cs, esp32_ready, esp32_reset)

print("Connecting to AP...")
while not esp.is_connected:
    try:
        esp.connect_AP(b"WIFI_SSID", b"WIFI_PASS")
    except RuntimeError as e:
        print("could not connect to AP, retrying: ", e)
        continue

# Initialize the NTP object
ntp = NTP(esp)

# Fetch and set the microcontroller's current UTC time
ntp.set_time()

# Get the current time in seconds since Jan 1, 1970
current_time = time.time()
print("Seconds since Jan 1, 1970: {} seconds".format(current_time))
