# Ng Server Time

Synchronizes local browser time with server time
using clock synchronization algorithm, similar to
NTP.

## [Demo](http://ng-server-time.herokuapp.com/)
## [Demo code](https://github.com/mfbx9da4/ng-server-time-example)

## Installation

1. Ensure angular, socket.io and ng-server-time are installed correctly

```
npm install socket.io
npm install angular
npm install ng-server-time
```

2. Ensure you have an angular socket.io factory such as this one, it is required by the server time factory:

```js
app.factory('socket', function() {
var socket = io.connect();
return socket;
});
```
3. Include `ng-server-time-factory.min.js`:

```html




```
4. Initilaize the socket on the server:

```js
var server_time = require('ng-server-time');

io.sockets.on('connection', function (socket) {
server_time.init(socket);
});
```

###Usage

```js
app.controller('MainController', function($scope, ServerTime){
// Date.now() on the server
$scope.now = ServerTime.now();

// new Date() on the server
$scope.new = ServerTime.new();

// get offset in milliseconds between current browser
// time and server time
$scope.getOffset = ServerTime.getOffset();
});
```
