You have listed that the library Supports esp8266. Maybe it does but I can't get your example to compile. Some minor problems that I have dealt with, some dependencies that are not part of the ESP8266-Arduino platform.

In RTCtimeUtils.h I have had to include #include

// ------> I M P O R T A N T ! <------
// We can set our Time Zone and initialize the <time.h> library with it
// Initialization performed later, using the standard set_zone() function.

set_zone() is does not seem to be a standard function under ESP8266. So I commented it out in order to try and get further in the compile.

RTCtime_Example:197: error: 'isotime' was not declared in this scope

       strcpy(utc_timestamp, isotime(&utc_tm));

Another AVR dependency. After commented out all of those lines.

error: there are no arguments to 'mk_gmtime' that depend on a template parameter, so a declaration of 'mk_gmtime' must be available [-fpermissive]

       return mk_gmtime(&now);
                                              ^

And that is as far as I can get. I am not a programmer just a hacker.

• Have a version of SetTime() taking a time_t value instead of a "struct_tm"
• Have a version of GetTime returning a "struct tm" instead of a time_t value
• Add more examples for enhanced features
• Add support for more hardware

This issue is now locked and kept open only for announcements

If you find a real issue (a.k.a. "bug"), please open a new issue or push a PR if you have one ready.

@keyeh and @Makuna,

I added examples to my library: I will be really grateful if you could give a look/ride at it and at the whole library.

I only have an Uno and a DS3231, so any test with different hardware will be particularly useful.

Any advice/criticism/correction is wholeheartedly welcome.

Thanks!

See: Makuna/Rtc#49

Thanks @mrwgx3

i had to hardly browse the .h file to learn how to fully use this library, so...

please make a public functions list with parameters and maybe a brief explanation

please indicate also some other included libraries (like time.h for example) to go to find additional documentation there

thanks for your work

Has anyone tried to get this library working with a DUE R3?

I've tried adding from the Library Manager and manually from a Repo Clone.

I'm getting a bunch of compile errors when trying to build the DS3231_Alarms_and_Temperature.ino example.

Attached is the build output with the errors.

Thanks,
Michael

Although this library essentially uses "Unix Time" there are methods to set the date based on the Gregorian calendar, therefore it could be a good idea to check their formal validity.

Pinging @Martin-Laclaustra: do you have any issue if I'm going to use the code you proposed for Makuna-Rtc? Of course I will be glad to recognize your contribution. Thanks in advance.
