Hi there,

I have been thinking about buying RTC module(i2c) to attach to my esp8266 for precise time and date.
There is a really cheap ds3231 rtc module and I am wondering is it possible to get time with micropython?
If the answer is yes, can somebody give me some references how to do that?

thanks

You may try my lib for DS3231 module.

>>> ds.Date()
[2000, 1, 1]
>>> ds.DateTime([2019,3,11,1,12,58,8])
>>> ds.Date()
[2019, 3, 11]
>>> ds.ALARM(12, 20, 10, ds.PER_DISABLE)
Traceback (most recent call last):

>>> ds.ALARM(ds,12, 20, 10, ds.PER_DISABLE)

Getting following error.

It maybe a mistake in demo code, I will test it later.
