Ability to configure date & time format

[KomtGoed]

Thanks for directing me to the right place! :) Now I also found the earlier discussion related to this topic.

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
I am running Node-Red as an add-on on Home Assistant OS. HA OS seems not to work with locales (i.e. I did not find a way to use other locales than the standard locale LANG=C.UTF-8).

KNX Ultimate seems to rely on the locale of the underlying OS, as pointed out by Mikafila.

These two combined mean that the date and time under each KNX Ultimate node are displayed using the standard locale, meaning that the format is "Jan 5 05:08 PM" instead of e.g. "05 Jan 17:08".

Describe the solution you'd like
The standard NR nodes (I am seeing) use specific date/time settings configured in the HA OS config node:

See here for details

It would be great if KNX Ultimate would be able to incorporate this setting for displaying date/time, if run in a Home Assistant add-on.

Describe alternatives you've considered
Another option could be to include similar settings in the knxUltimate config node, as discussed in #171

Hi
I’ll take a look for the upcoming version.

Hi
V. 4.1.9 will be out today with the datetime format option.

Wow, this is awesome, grazie mille! I thought "next version" sometime in the future, next day is really impressive.

Just tested v4.1.10 and it works great.

One small thing. After changing the date/time format setting, the following error message is displayed:
KNXUltimate serial discovery failed: spawn udevadm ENOENT

The message does not appear when (re)starting the Node-Red addon. Does not seem to impact the operations.

Hi
KNXUltimate serial discovery failed: spawn udevadm ENOENT
is related to the serial interfaces autodiscovery. It has been introduced recently and it allows knx ultimate to work without ip gateway (only using serial or Kberry interfaces).
Don’t worry about that.

Check.

And again: thanks so much for your hard work on this great node!
