Does anyone know of a good JSON time server?

As of Jan. 07th 2020 http://worldtimeapi.org/ is working fine. we can get current date and time details for specfic time-zone or ip address easily in either json format or plain text format.

http://worldtimeapi.org/api/timezone/America/Santiago

the above url will give you the current date and time details in json for “America/Santiago”.

http://worldtimeapi.org/api/timezone/Asia/Kolkata

the above url will give you the current date and time details in json for “Asia/Kolkata”.

Request the current time based on your public IP (as JSON):

$ curl “http://worldtimeapi.org/api/ip

Note: by default, the API returns JSON. Adding a suffix of .txt to any API URL will return a plain-text response, which may be easier to parse on some systems.
