and a link for the strftime format mask
8.1.7. strftime() and strptime() Behavior
date, datetime, and time objects all support a strftime(format) method, to create a string representing the time under the control of an explicit format string. Broadly speaking, d.strftime(fmt) acts like the time module’s time.strftime(fmt, d.timetuple()) although not all objects support a timetuple() method.
Conversely, the datetime.strptime() class method creates a datetime object from a string representing a date and time and a corresponding format string. datetime.strptime(date_string, format) is equivalent to datetime(*(time.strptime(date_string, format)[0:6])).
For time objects, the format codes for year, month, and day should not be used, as time objects have no such values. If they’re used anyway, 1900 is substituted for the year, and 1 for the month and day.
For date objects, the format codes for hours, minutes, seconds, and microseconds should not be used, as date objects have no such values. If they’re used anyway, 0 is substituted for them.
The full set of format codes supported varies across platforms, because Python calls the platform C library’s strftime() function, and platform variations are common. To see the full set of format codes supported on your platform, consult the strftime(3)documentation.
The following is a list of all the format codes that the C standard (1989 version) requires, and these work on all platforms with a standard C implementation. Note that the 1999 version of the C standard added additional format codes.
The exact range of years for which strftime() works also varies across platforms. Regardless of platform, years before 1900 cannot be used.
| Directive | Meaning | Example | Notes |
|---|
| %a | Weekday as locale’s abbreviated name. | Sun, Mon, ..., Sat (en_US); So, Mo, ..., Sa (de_DE) | (1) |
| %A | Weekday as locale’s full name. | Sunday, Monday, ..., Saturday (en_US); Sonntag, Montag, ..., Samstag (de_DE) | (1) |
| %w | Weekday as a decimal number, where 0 is Sunday and 6 is Saturday. | 0, 1, ..., 6 | |
| %d | Day of the month as a zero-padded decimal number. | 01, 02, ..., 31 | |
| %b | Month as locale’s abbreviated name. | Jan, Feb, ..., Dec (en_US); Jan, Feb, ..., Dez (de_DE) | (1) |
| %B | Month as locale’s full name. | January, February, ..., December (en_US); Januar, Februar, ..., Dezember (de_DE) | (1) |
| %m | Month as a zero-padded decimal number. | 01, 02, ..., 12 | |
| %y | Year without century as a zero-padded decimal number. | 00, 01, ..., 99 | |
| %Y | Year with century as a decimal number. | 1970, 1988, 2001, 2013 | |
| %H | Hour (24-hour clock) as a zero-padded decimal number. | 00, 01, ..., 23 | |
| %I | Hour (12-hour clock) as a zero-padded decimal number. | 01, 02, ..., 12 | |
| %p | Locale’s equivalent of either AM or PM. | AM, PM (en_US); am, pm (de_DE) | (1), (2) |
| %M | Minute as a zero-padded decimal number. | 00, 01, ..., 59 | |
| %S | Second as a zero-padded decimal number. | 00, 01, ..., 59 | (3) |
| %f | Microsecond as a decimal number, zero-padded on the left. | 000000, 000001, ..., 999999 | (4) |
| %z | UTC offset in the form +HHMM or -HHMM (empty string if the the object is naive). | (empty), +0000, -0400, +1030 | (5) |
| %Z | Time zone name (empty string if the object is naive). | (empty), UTC, EST, CST | |
| %j | Day of the year as a zero-padded decimal number. | 001, 002, ..., 366 | |
| %U | Week number of the year (Sunday as the first day of the week) as a zero padded decimal number. All days in a new year preceding the first Sunday are considered to be in week 0. | 00, 01, ..., 53 | (6) |
| %W | Week number of the year (Monday as the first day of the week) as a decimal number. All days in a new year preceding the first Monday are considered to be in week 0. | 00, 01, ..., 53 | (6) |
| %c | Locale’s appropriate date and time representation. | Tue Aug 16 21:30:00 1988 (en_US); Di 16 Aug 21:30:00 1988 (de_DE) | (1) |
| %x | Locale’s appropriate date representation. | 08/16/88 (None); 08/16/1988 (en_US); 16.08.1988 (de_DE) | (1) |
| %X | Locale’s appropriate time representation. | 21:30:00 (en_US); 21:30:00 (de_DE) | (1) |
| %% | A literal '%' character. | % | |
Notes:
Because the format depends on the current locale, care should be taken when making assumptions about the output value. Field orderings will vary (for example, “month/day/year” versus “day/month/year”), and the output may contain Unicode characters encoded using the locale’s default encoding (for example, if the current locale is ja_JP, the default encoding could be any one of eucJP, SJIS, or utf-8; use locale.getlocale() to determine the current locale’s encoding).
When used with the strptime() method, the %p directive only affects the output hour field if the %I directive is used to parse the hour.
Unlike the time module, the datetime module does not support leap seconds.
%f is an extension to the set of format characters in the C standard (but implemented separately in datetime objects, and therefore always available). When used with the strptime() method, the %f directive accepts from one to six digits and zero pads on the right.
New in version 2.6.
For a naive object, the %z and %Z format codes are replaced by empty strings.
For an aware object:
- %z
utcoffset() is transformed into a 5-character string of the form +HHMM or -HHMM, where HH is a 2-digit string giving the number of UTC offset hours, and MM is a 2-digit string giving the number of UTC offset minutes. For example, ifutcoffset() returns timedelta(hours=-3, minutes=-30), %z is replaced with the string '-0330'.
- %Z
If tzname() returns None, %Z is replaced by an empty string. Otherwise %Z is replaced by the returned value, which must be a string.
When used with the strptime() method, %U and %W are only used in calculations when the day of the week and the year are specified.

View Full Version : HOW-TO: Set system time clock with rdate
Mr. Gadget
02-08-2011, 08:29 PM
Set your system time with RDATE or NTPD
You can set your PBO system time clock to the current time using the command 'rdate'. You will need to download and add the latest Busybox commands (do not overlay on existing commands, unless you know what you are doing).
1) Perform the addition of the latest Busybox commands to your system. You can run them from your HD or USB, not sure about using internal memory. The Busybox file is only 1.6Mb, but I would not want to deny the OS from using available space. If you want to test this feature before making it permanent, insert a USB drive on the PBO, browse to the USB drive from your PC, map it to a drive letter like V:, then download busybox-mipsel.asc file to the mapped/USB drive (save target, and add the file extension .asc).
Snappy has this file information listed here: http://www.patriotmem.com/forums/showthread.php?t=3737
A quick test to see if the new BBox commands work (I placed my file in the root of the front USB, which is /tmp/usbmounts/sda1).
Create an alias to your new commands on Venus:
Venus> alias bb="/tmp/usbmounts/sda1/busybox-mipsel.asc"
Test it with 'whoami', it should return root, if you get "-sh: whoami: not found" you are not linked to the proper file.
Venus> bb whoami
root
2) Next you should modify your /etc/profile to match your proper TZ (timezone). Example: TZ=MST7MDT
This will allow you to see your time in your local format (assuming the timezone file is current for your location, too detailed for this mod).
You can display the 'current' set date/time for your timezone, but if you did not set the date manually already, it will be wrong. Just enter the command 'date'. Don't worry about any of the fields other than your timezone, ie MST, PST...
3) Now your system is armed to get access and display the proper time. So, first we will update the System clock from the network. We need to use an older time server since most do not accept the rdate protocol command. If we can get NTP loaded on the PBO, then we can use any Stratum NTP server available (pool.ntp.org).
Enter the command:
Venus> bb rdate -sp time-nw.nist.gov
Tue Feb 8 12:53:33 2011
So now your system has the correct time. But the hardware clock is still out of sync with the system time. We can view this using the 'hwclock' command.
Venus> hwclock
Thu Dec 31 17:12:33 2009 0000000000.000000 seconds
Let's fix the hardware clock and sync it with the system clock.
Venus> hwclock -w
Now verify the System clock and Hardware clock are in sync. Just enter the 'date' command, then compare with the 'hwclock' command results.
Your system is now set to the current time, and your display should be set to your local timezone.
Update: Use NTP to set clock. Can ignore hwclock settings at this point in time, the RTC does not advance after setting anyway.
(Verbose mode)
Venus> bb ntpd -dnq -p pool.ntp.org
(Quiet mode)
Venus> bb ntpd -nq -p pool.ntp.org
TODO:
Decide which clock is more important: System (telnet) time, or PBO (GUI) time.
(GUI Time displays UTC time, telnet system clock shows TZ time).
Make it permanent (every system boot).
DONE:
Install NTP for greater accuracy and more system support. Part of the new busybox command set.
WOW -- The hwclock clock NEVER advances automatically - something I hadn't noticed at first. I thought it was slow.

Excellent write up,
Thanks,
I suspect the "drift" is why some of the firmwares have dropped the ability to set the time.

The NTPD work fine, but how did that NTPD refresh automatically every time when I turn on the PBO? :rolleyes:

You can add whatever commands that starts the service to your /usr/local/etc/rcS (startup script).

I installed busybox 1.18.1 on my PBO successfully. When I run "ntpd -nq -p pool.ntp.org" via telnet after startup, it works fine, but it doesn't work when I put it in rcS. Am I doing anything wrong, or will it simply not work in the startup script?

My guess would be that your network connection is not active yet when running from the rcS file. I personnally only have one extra entry in my rcS file to another script which make all the magic happen. The first thing that happen in my script is a loop to make sure my network (wireless/ethernet) is up an running before anything happen. After that loop is completed I then mount my NAS, setup the time, launch lighttpd etc......
Hope this helps!
Cheers!!!

I have a few dirty programs I use to boot my system.
First, I added a call in the rcS1 file to myStartup.sh (see imbedded comment)
Then, myStartup.sh calls all of my utilities to do my system setup:
1) Run setMGWY.sh to determine what the default gateway should be
2) Run chknet.sh to see if the network is operational yet
3) Run getTime.sh to set the time using NTPD
4) Run myMount.sh to mount my SMB shares (not included here)
You may name the programs with our without the .sh, if you add, then be sure to edit the files to include the correct name.
(By default, the only file with .sh is myStartup.sh)

# This program will check the status of the network, if up

If you want to see myMount.sh, let me know (it also uses chknet to see if network is up, then mount shares).

I tried the simple approach: I placed the "ntpd -nq -p pool.ntp.org" command at the very end of the rcS script, immediately preceded by "sleep 30".
For now, that seems to be working well for my setup.

Good to hear it works for you.
Just a word of caution, if the network is not operational for any reason (using PBO in hotel, on the road...), some commands may not allow your PBO to boot completely (if you are waiting for the network). Be sure to test your commands in various situations if you plan to take it on the road.
