Geo2tz is a command-line utility that lets you get the time zone from a geographic coordinate using OpenStreetMap data. In this tutorial, we will guide you through the process of installing Geo2tz on NetBSD.
Before proceeding with the installation, you need to ensure that you have the following dependencies installed:
Step 1. Clone the Geo2tz repository from GitHub.
$ git clone https://github.com/noandrea/geo2tz.git
Step 2. Change the directory to the cloned repository.
$ cd geo2tz
Step 3. Run the make command to compile the source code.
$ make
Step 4. Install Geo2tz.
$ sudo make install
Step 5. Verify that Geo2tz is installed correctly.
$ geo2tz --version
If the installation was successful, the output should show the version of Geo2tz installed.
To use Geo2tz, type the following command in your terminal:
$ geo2tz <latitude> <longitude>
You can replace <latitude> and <longitude> with the coordinates of the location you want to get the time zone for.
For example, if you want to get the time zone of New York City, type:
$ geo2tz 40.7128 -74.0060
In this tutorial, we have shown you how to install and use Geo2tz on NetBSD. Geo2tz is an excellent tool for getting the time zone of any location, and the process of installation is easy to follow.
If you want to self-host in an easy, hands free way, need an external IP address, or simply want your data in your own hands, give IPv6.rs a try!
Alternatively, for the best virtual desktop, try Shells!
