Cron 表达式是表示时间周期的字符串，常用于各种定时任务解决方案，本文中代码示例基于 Spring @Scheduled 定时器

语法格式

Cron 字符串包含 6 或 7 个域，域之间使用空格分隔。

包含 6 个域的 Cron 表达式语法格式：

Seconds Minutes Hours DayofMonth Month DayofWeek

包含 7 个域的 Cron 表达式语法格式：

Seconds Minutes Hours DayofMonth Month DayofWeek Year

有效字符范围

每个域可使用的有效字符包括：

Seconds：0~59 的整数，或 , - * / 四个字符
Minutes：同 Seconds 域一致
Hours：0~23的整数，或 , - * / 四个字符
DayofMonth：0~31的整数，或 , - * / ? L W C 八个字符
Month：1~12的整数，或 JAN ~ DEC，或 , - * / 四个字符
DayofWeek：1~7的整数，或 SUN ~ SAT，或 , - * / ? L C # 八个字符，注意整数 1 代表星期日，每周第一天从周日开始
Year：1970~2099，或 , - * / 四个字符

特殊字符说明

(1) ,
用于分隔枚举值，如在 Seconds 域使用 10,15,25 表示在第 10 秒、15 秒和 25 秒触发一次，示例代码如下：

  1. @Scheduled(cron = "10,15,25 * * * * ?")
  2. public void scheduledTask() {
  3.     System.out.println("Task executed at " + LocalDateTime.now());
  4. }

匹配所在域有效范围内的任意值，如在 Minutes 域使用则每分钟触发一次，示例代码如下：

表示从起始时间开始，每隔固定时间触发一次，如在 Seconds 域使用 10/15 表示每分钟内第 10 秒触发以后，后续每隔 15 秒触发一次，即每分钟第 10 秒、第 25 秒、第 40 秒和第 55 秒各触发一次。注意：这种间隔循环只在每分钟内执行，即第 55 秒时中断每 15 秒的间隔循环，等到下一分钟的第 10 秒再次执行。

  1. @Scheduled(cron = "10/15 * * * * ?")
  2. public void scheduledTask() {
  3.     System.out.println("Task executed at " + LocalDateTime.now());

只能用于 DayofMonth 和 DayofWeek 这两个域，表示匹配任意值，如 DayofMonth 域使用固定值 10（表示每月第 10 天触发），则 DayofWeek 使用 ?，示例代码如下：

  2. public void scheduledTask() {
  3.     System.out.println("Task executed at " + LocalDateTime.now());
