Examples
- "What time is it?"
- "What time is it in Paris?"

- "What day is it"
- "What's the date?"
- "Tell me the day of the week"
- "How many days until July 4th"
- "What day is Memorial Day 2020?"
Configuration
You can adjust the skill's behavior in the settings.json file.
The skill includes 2 sound files, "casio-watch.wav" and "clock-chime.mp3", to signal when the hour changes.

{
"play_hour_chime": true,
"hour_sound": "clock-chime.mp3"
}

The default isfalse.hour_sound: (string) Sets the path to the audio file for the hourly chime. By default, it points tocasio-watch.wavin theresfolder. You can set it to the path of any audio file you prefer.

Resolving a timezone from coordinates queries that database through the
timezonefinder package, which installs it unmodified. The ODbL asks for the
attribution above, and its share-alike clause covers a derivative of the
database: anyone who alters the bundled boundary data and passes it on must
offer the altered database under the ODbL as well. Using the skill, and
building on the skill's own Apache-2.0 code, carries no such obligation.
