NTP Binding
The NTP binding is used for displaying the local date and time based update from an NTP server.
Supported Things
This binding supports one ThingType: ntp
Discovery
Discovery is used to place one default item in the inbox as a convenient way to add a Thing for the local time.
Binding Configuration
The binding has no configuration options, all configuration is done at Thing level.
Thing Configuration
The thing has a few configuration options:
Option | Description |
---|---|
hostname | The NTP server hostname, e.g. nl.pool.ntp.org |
refreshInterval | Interval that new time updates are posted to the eventbus in seconds. Default is 60s. |
refreshNtp | Number of updates between querying the NTP server (e.g. with refreshinterval = 60 (seconds) and refreshNtp = 30 the NTP server is queried each half hour). Default is 30. |
serverPort | The port that the NTP server could use. Default is 123. |
timeZone | The configured timezone. Can be left blank for using the timezone defined as openHAB configuration setting (or default system timezone if not defined). |
Channels
The ntp binding has two channels:
dateTime
which provides the data in a dateTime typestring
which provides the data in a string type. The string channel can be configured with the formatting of the date & time. This also allows proper representation of timezones other than the java machine default one.
See the java documentation for the detailed information on the formatting
Full Example
Things:
ntp:ntp:demo [ hostname="nl.pool.ntp.org", refreshInterval=60, refreshNtp=30 ]
Items:
DateTime Date "Date [%1$tA, %1$td.%1$tm.%1$tY %1$tH:%1$tM]" { channel="ntp:ntp:demo:dateTime" }
