# sntp
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
An SNTP v4 client (RFC4330) for node. Simpy connects to the NTP or SNTP server requested and returns the server time
|
||
|
|
along with the roundtrip duration and clock offset. To adjust the local time to the NTP time, add the returned `t` offset
|
||
|
|
to the local time.

# Usage
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```javascript
|
||
|
|
var Sntp = require('sntp');
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
// All options are optional
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
var options = {
|
||
|
|
host: 'nist1-sj.ustiming.org', // Defaults to pool.ntp.org
|
||
|
|
port: 123, // Defaults to 123 (NTP)
|
||
|
|
resolveReference: true, // Default to false (not resolving)
|
||
|
|
timeout: 1000 // Defaults to zero (no timeout)
|
||
|
|
};
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
// Request server time
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Sntp.time(options, function (err, time) {
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
if (err) {
|
||
|
|
console.log('Failed: ' + err.message);
|
||
|
|
process.exit(1);
|
||
|
|
}
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
console.log('Local clock is off by: ' + time.t + ' milliseconds');
|
||
|
|
process.exit(0);
|
||
|
|
});
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
If an application needs to maintain continuous time synchronization, the module provides a stateful method for
|
||
|
|
querying the current offset only when the last one is too old (defaults to daily).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```javascript
|
||
|
|
// Request offset once
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Sntp.offset(function (err, offset) {
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
console.log(offset); // New (served fresh)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
// Request offset again
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Sntp.offset(function (err, offset) {
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
console.log(offset); // Identical (served from cache)
|
||
|
|
});
|
||
|
|
});
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
To set a background offset refresh, start the interval and use the provided now() method. If for any reason the
|
||
|
|
client fails to obtain an up-to-date offset, the current system clock is used.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```javascript
|
||
|
|
var before = Sntp.now(); // System time without offset
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Sntp.start(function () {
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
var now = Sntp.now(); // With offset
|
||
|
|
Sntp.stop();
|
||
|
|
});
|
||
|
|
```
|
