clockwall

clockwall

GOPL, exercise 8.1.

It has three packages:

• timezone, whose only purpose is to validate timezones according to the IANA database (taken usually from /usr/share/timezone in *nix systems).
• clock, creates a fake clock server.
• main.go (clockwall itself), a client that reads from multiple servers concurrently.

Run

Assuming you have Go installed, init.sh will:

• Build the clock package into a binary called clok.
• Build the main.go into a binary called clockwall
• Setup some time servers by calling clok multiple times
• Run clockwall, reading time for each of the time servers and displaying them in a table.
