Get Google API Access Token using JSON Private Key using NIST Time Server Date/Time

Demonstrates how to get a Google API access token using a JSON service account private key, using the NIST time server date/time rather than the local system date/time. CkPython

import sys
import chilkat

success = False

# This example requires the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
# See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

# First, let's get the current date/time from time-c.nist.gov
socket = chilkat.CkSocket()

# Connect to an NIST time server and read the current date/time
maxWaitMs = 8000
useTls = False
success = socket.Connect("time-c.nist.gov",37,useTls,maxWaitMs)
if (success != True):
    print(socket.lastErrorText())
    sys.exit()

# The time server will send a big-endian 32-bit integer representing
# the number of seconds since since 00:00 (midnight) 1 January 1900 GMT.
# The ReceiveInt32 method will receive a 4-byte integer, but returns
# True or False to indicate success.  If successful, the integer
# is obtained via the ReceivedInt property.
bigEndian = True
success = socket.ReceiveInt32(bigEndian)
if (success != True):
    print(socket.lastErrorText())
    sys.exit()

dt = chilkat.CkDateTime()

# Show the current local date/time
bLocalTime = True
print("Current local date/time: " + dt.getAsRfc822(bLocalTime))

maxWaitMs = 10
socket.Close(maxWaitMs)

# ------------------------------------------------------------------------
# OK, we have the current date/time.  We'll use it to set the IAT property
# in the code below.

# First load the JSON key into a string.
