## Time format JaniWeb uses the Quartz Cron syntax to define complex job timings. This extended version of the classic Cron syntax consists of six or seven fields: #### Quartz Cron syntax structure ```plaintext S M H DoM MoY DoW [Y] ``` 1. **Second (S)**: `0-59` 2. **Minute (M)**: `0-59` 3. **Hour (H)**: `0-23` 4. **Day of month (DoM)**: `1-31` 5. **Month of year (MoY)**: `1-12` or abbreviations like `JAN, FEB` 6. **Day of week (DoW)**: `1-7` (or `SUN, MON, ...`) 7. **Year (Y)** (optional): `1970-2099` #### Special characters - **`*`: Any value** - ****`,`: List of values (e.g. `MON,WED,FRI`)**** - ******`-`: Area (e.g. `1-5`)****** - ********`/`: Increment (e.g. `0/5` for all 5 units)******** - **********`?`: Any value, which is ignored in fields of conflict (only for `DoM` and `DoW`).******** #### Examples 1. **Every day at midnight**: ```plaintext 0 0 0 * * ? ``` 2. **Every Monday at 9:00 a.m**: ```plaintext 0 0 9 ? * MON ``` 3. **Every 5 minutes**: ```plaintext 0 0/5 * * * ? ``` 4. **On the first day of each month at 12:30 p.m.**: ```plaintext 0 30 12 1 * ? ``` 5. **Every 15 seconds**: ```plaintext 0/15 * * * * ? ``` #### Important differences to the classic Cron format - The field **second** is additionally available. - **`?`** replaces **`*`** in fields with conflicts between `DoM` and `DoW`. - Supports more detailed timings by combining steps and lists.
