set ntp publish interval

[nopnop2002]

Thank you for useful Firmware.

After NTP sync has been completed successfully once, the local time will be published every second under the topic "$SYS/broker/time" in the format "hh:mm:ss".

I want to set publish interval.

set ntp_local_interval1 600 set ntp_local_interval2 3600 set ntp_local_interval3 12:00:00 set ntp_local_interval4 0:00:00

the local time will be published every 10 minute under the topic "$SYS/broker/time1" in the format "hh:mm:ss".

the local time will be published every 60 minute under the topic "$SYS/broker/time2" in the format "hh:mm:ss".

the local time will be published at 12:00:00 under the topic "$SYS/broker/time3" in the format "hh:mm:ss".

the local time will be published at 00:00:00 under the topic "$SYS/broker/time4" in the format "hh:mm:ss".

This is quite a specific request. This could be done in the code, but in order to keep that somewhat generic, I would suggest to use a script with two timers and two alarms.

[nopnop2002]

Thank you very much for your answer. I'll use a script.

[martin-ger]

As it might be soewhat tricky, here is a script that does the job:

% Example for some regular timers

% Config params, overwrite any previous settings from the commandline
config ntp_server   1.pool.ntp.org
config ntp_timezone 1

% Now the initialization, this is done once after booting
on init
do
    setvar $t_prefix = "$SYS/broker/time"
    setvar $tt1 = $t_prefix | "1"
    setvar $tt2 = $t_prefix | "2"
    setvar $tt3 = $t_prefix | "3"
    setvar $tt4 = $t_prefix | "4"

    % Starts, when time is synced
    subscribe local $t_prefix

% Now the events, checked whenever something happens

on topic local $t_prefix
do
    % Wait for sync
    unsubscribe local $t_prefix
    settimer 1 1000
    setalarm 1 "12:00:00"
    setalarm 2 "00:00:00"

on timer 1
do
    % Check for full 10 minutes
    if (substr($timestamp,4,4) = "0:00") then
        publish local $tt1 $timestamp
            % Check for full hour
            if (csvstr($timestamp,1,":") = "00") then
            publish local $tt2 $timestamp
            endif
    endif
    settimer 1 1000

on alarm 1
do
    publish local $tt3 "12:00:00"

on alarm 2
do
    publish local $tt4 "00:00:00"

I worried about this

the local time will be published every 10 minute 8:10 8:20 8:30 8:40 .......

the local time will be published every 60 minute 9:00 10:00 11:00 12:00 ......

Thank you.

[martin-ger]

Not what you requested for? Do you want an event exactly 10 min after sync?

[nopnop2002]

Your script works perfectly.

But I have more questions.

Q1) I wrote firmware in the same ESP-12 again. But my script and uplink-AP setting still stays.

Q2) When a reset button of ST(WeMos as MQTT Client) is pressed during a ST connection, esp_mqtt also resets at the same time. When this occurs, ST can't be connected to Broker. This isn't usual, it sometimes occurs.

Japan will be the New Year holiday now. So I can't response till end of holiday. Thank you.

Q1: That't correct, the script and the WiFi-Settings are stored independently from the code. Clear flash (or write any file to 0x00000 - at least 64 KB). This will reset the settings as well.

Q2: Don't know yet...

Happy New Year!
