Module worldtimeapi
API

ballerinax/worldtimeapi Ballerina library
Overview
This is a generated connector for WorldTimeAPI v0.6.1 OpenAPI Specification.
WorldTime API is a simple "microservice" which returns the local-time for a given timezone in both unixtime and ISO8601 format. The worldTimeAPI connector supports to get the current time based on a request with a timezone and additional information including whether that timezone is currently in Daylight Savings Time, when DST starts and ends, the UTC offset, etc.
Quickstart
- Listing all time zone as json
Step 1 - Import connector
ballerinax/worldtimeapi
Step 2 - Create a new connector instance
worldtimeapi:Client baseClient = check new Client();
Step 3 - Invoke connector operation
- Invoke connector operations using the client
worldtimeapi:ListJsonResponse output = check baseClient->listTimezones();
- Use
bal run
command to compile and run the Ballerina program.
