Description
I've been running this on a qt-py-esp32-s2 for a couple days and had intermittent random code failures. It turns out that very occasionally the NTP response wasn't coming back within socket_timeout
seconds, which manifested as an OSError
exception that caused my code.py
to exit. Took a while to recreate but fairly obvious how to fix.
In order to save others the time of having to recreate the problem in order to witness it in the REPL, I'd like to add some words to the inline documentation about both how 1) accesses to ntp.datetime
are what cause the NTP request to be sent, and therefore 2) accesses to ntp.datetime
may throw an OSError
exception, which should be caught and handled appropriately. I will (attempt to) open a PR with these changes.
Thanks for making this NTP code. It was just what I needed for my project!
