About this Cron Parser
The Cron Parser translates a cron expression into a plain sentence and shows the next run times, with a builder for putting expressions together field by field. No more counting asterisks to work out whether a job runs every five minutes or at five in the morning.
How to use the Cron Parser
- Paste a cron expression to read it in plain words.
- Check the upcoming run times against what you expect.
- Or use the builder to compose a new schedule and copy the expression.
Good to know
- The classic mistake is field order: minute, hour, day of month, month, day of week.
- Next run times catch timezone surprises before production does.
- Quartz style expressions with a seconds field are supported too.
