Description
Offers a dashboard of defined jobs and the ability to perform actions on these jobs (cancel, reschedule, edit, etc). The application is available on the Scheduler space of your wiki.
The cron expressions are used to configure how often the jobs will be triggered. Cron expressions are strings that are actually made up of seven sub-expressions, that describe individual details of the schedule (see this tutorial on the quarts scheduler documentation). These sub-expression are separated with white-space, and represent:
- Seconds
- Minutes
- Hours
- Day-of-Month
- Month
- Day-of-Week
- Year (optional field)
Below some example of valid cron expression, from the official quartz scheduler documentation:
| Cron expression | Meaning |
|---|---|
| 0 15 10 * * ? | Fire at 10:15am every day |
| 0 15 10 ? * MON-FRI | Fire at 10:15am every Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday |
| 0 0/5 14 * * ? | Fire every 5 minutes starting at 2pm and ending at 2:55pm, every day |
| 0 15 10 ? * 6L | Fire at 10:15am on the last Friday of every month |
