SysAdmin Guide

Perl Time Sync Script

Perl runs deep in the infrastructure of the internet. If you are maintaining legacy backend scripts, use `LWP::UserAgent` to query our API for accurate timestamps and logging data.

PERL

use LWP::UserAgent;
        use JSON;
        use strict;
        use warnings;

        my $ua = LWP::UserAgent->new;
        my $url = 'https://time.now/developer/api/timezone/Asia/Seoul';

        my $response = $ua->get($url);

        if ($response->is_success) {
            my $data = decode_json($response->decoded_content);
            print "Seoul Time: " . $data->{'datetime'} . "
";
            print "Unix Epoch: " . $data->{'unixtime'} . "
";
        } else {
            die $response->status_line;
        }
