Automatically Setting DST from Sparktime Library

General
2

you can do it programmatically (example for North America)

bool IsDST(int dayOfMonth, int month, int dayOfWeek)
{
  if (month < 3 || month > 11)
  {
    return false;
  }
  if (month > 3 && month < 11)
  {
    return true;
  }
  int previousSunday = dayOfMonth - (dayOfWeek - 1);
  if (month == 3)
  {
    return previousSunday >= 8;
  }
  return previousSunday <= 0;
}

and in loop:

void loop()
{
  bool daylightSavings = IsDST(Time.day(), Time.month(), Time.weekday());
  Time.zone(daylightSavings? -4 : -5);
  // your other stuff
}

or you can use a webhook:
