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

##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:

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

     <script src="/socket.io.js"></script>
     <script src="/angular.min.js"></script>
     <script src="/ng-server-time-factory.min.js"></script>
     <script src="/my-angular-app.js"></script>
  4. Initilaize the socket on the server:

    var server_time = require('ng-server-time');
    
    io.sockets.on('connection', function (socket) {
      server_time.init(socket);
    });

###Usage

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();
});
