[Ovmsdev] System date set?

[Mark Webb-Johnson]

I’ve done a very rough implementation of this:

OVMS > time set 1519486746
Time set (at stratum 15)

OVMS > time status
UTC Time:   Sat Feb 24 15:39:09 2018
Local Time: Sat Feb 24 15:39:09 2018
Provider:   time

PROVIDER             STRATUM  UPDATE TIME
*time                     15       4 Sat Feb 24 15:39:10 2018

OVMS > time status
UTC Time:   Sat Feb 24 15:39:14 2018
Local Time: Sat Feb 24 15:39:14 2018
Provider:   time

PROVIDER             STRATUM  UPDATE TIME
*time                     15       9 Sat Feb 24 15:39:15 2018

I’ll work on it some more tomorrow. As it is, components can now call MyTime.Set(…) to feed their opinion of time into the system.

Regards, Mark.
