The easy way is to follow the howto, and let the software do all the
work for you:

    https://gpsd.io/gpsd-time-service-howto.html

Writing your own software is a much bigger task.

When you start gpsd:
        gpsd -n /dev/ttyS0

That /dev/ttyS0 is your GNSS receiver.  When you send a WATCH, that
is what you use for path:
        "path":"/dev/ttyS0"

But if you only have one device, you can leave it empty.

The easiest way to see how this works is to watch the sample clients
run in debug mode.
