nvram integer limitations

[kjm]

I've been storing epoch time stamps in nvram for some VIP events

>>> import pycom; pycom.nvs_set('VIP', 1591319102); print(pycom.nvs_get('VIP'))
1591319102

But a typo has just shown me that this is only going to work till Jan 19 2038

>>> import pycom; pycom.nvs_set('VIP', 2147483649); print(pycom.nvs_get('VIP'))
-2147483647

I'm such a sloppy programmer!

@kjm said in nvram integer limitations:

1591319102); print(pycom.nvs_get('VIP'))

Yes, NVRam only fits 32bit integers (signed). 2,147,483,647 is the maximum value you can fit in!
Of course you can create your own workaround to use multiple keys.
