Easy scheduler

Describe when it should run.

Answer a few questions and get a working cron expression — plus the actual dates it will fire, so you can check it before trusting it.

How often?

At what time?

Your schedule

Runs every day at 9:00 AM

Day of week

That's the whole format: five values, always in this order. An * means "no restriction here".

It would next run

Sat, Sep 12, 9:00 AMin 18h 15m
Sun, Sep 13, 9:00 AMin 1 day
Mon, Sep 14, 9:00 AMin 2 days
Tue, Sep 15, 9:00 AMin 3 days
Wed, Sep 16, 9:00 AMin 4 days

Real times, calculated the same way cron itself would, in your browser's timezone.

Using it

  1. 1. Copy the expression above.
  2. 2. Run crontab -e on your server.
  3. 3. Add a line: the expression, a space, then the command to run.
