Spring @Scheduled – 4 Ways to Schedule Tasks

Spring provides excellent support for both task scheduling and asynchronous method execution based on cron expression using @Scheduled annotation. The @Scheduled annotation can be added to a method along with trigger metadata.

In this post, I will show the means to use @Scheduled feature in 4 different ways.

1. @Scheduled Annotation
2. Fixed delay or Fixed rate
3. Cron expressions
4. Cron expression from properties file
5. Cron expression in context configuration

1. Spring @Scheduled Annotation

@Scheduled annotation is used for task scheduling. The trigger information needs to be provided along with this annotation.

1.1. fixedDelay vs fixedRate vs cron

You can use the properties fixedDelay/fixedRate/cron to provide the triggering information. where –

fixedRate makes Spring run the task on periodic intervals even if the last invocation may be still running.
fixedDelay specifically controls the next execution time when the last execution finishes.
cron is a feature originating from Unix cron utility and has various options based on your requirements.

Example usage can be as below:

@Scheduled(fixedDelay =30000)
public void demoServiceMethod () {... }

@Scheduled(fixedRate=30000)
public void demoServiceMethod () {... }

@Scheduled(cron="0 0 * * * *")
public void demoServiceMethod () {... }

1.2. How to enable @Scheduled annotation

To use @Scheduled in your spring application, you must first define below xml namespace and schema location definition in your applicationConfig.xml file. Also add task:annotation-driven to enable annotation based task scheduling.

xmlns:task="http://www.springframework.org/schema/task"
http://www.springframework.org/schema/task/
http://www.springframework.org/schema/task/spring-task-3.0.xsd

<task:annotation-driven>

Above additions are necessary because we will be using annotation based configurations.

1.3. Using @Scheduled annotation

Next step is to create a class and a method inside the class like below:

public class DemoService
{
	@Scheduled(cron="*/5 * * * * ?")
	public void demoServiceMethod()
	{
		System.out.println("Method executed at every 5 seconds. Current time is :: "+ new Date());
	}
}

In above example –

Using @Scheduled annotation would in turn make Spring container understand that the method underneath this annotation would run as a job.
Remember that the methods annotated with @Scheduled should not have parameters passed to them.
They should not return any values too.
If you want the external objects to be used within your @Scheduled methods, you should inject them into the DemoService class using autowiring rather than passing them as parameters to the @Scheduled methods.

2. @Scheduled with fixed delay or fixed rate

In this method, fixedDelay attribute is used with @Scheduled annotation. Alternatively, fixedRate can also be used.

A sample class will look like this:

package com.howtodoinjava.service;

import java.util.Date;
import org.springframework.scheduling.annotation.Scheduled;

public class DemoServiceBasicUsageFixedDelay
{
	@Scheduled(fixedDelay = 5000)
	//@Scheduled(fixedRate = 5000)	//Or use this
	public void demoServiceMethod()
	{
		System.out.println("Method executed at every 5 seconds. Current time is :: "+ new Date());
	}
}

And application configuration will look like this:

< ?xml  version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<beans xmlns="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans"
 xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
 xmlns:task="http://www.springframework.org/schema/task"
 xmlns:util="http://www.springframework.org/schema/util"
 xmlns:context="http://www.springframework.org/schema/context"
 xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans/spring-beans-3.0.xsd
 		http://www.springframework.org/schema/context/ http://www.springframework.org/schema/context/spring-context.xsd
 		http://www.springframework.org/schema/util/ http://www.springframework.org/schema/util/spring-util.xsd
      	http://www.springframework.org/schema/task/ http://www.springframework.org/schema/task/spring-task-3.0.xsd">

    <task:annotation-driven />

    <bean id="demoServiceBasicUsageFixedDelay" class="com.howtodoinjava.service.DemoServiceBasicUsageFixedDelay"></bean>

</beans>

3. @Scheduled with cron expression

In this method, cron attribute is used with @Scheduled annotation. Value of this attribute must be a cron expression.

A sample class will look like this:

package com.howtodoinjava.service;

import java.util.Date;
import org.springframework.scheduling.annotation.Scheduled;

public class DemoServiceBasicUsageCron
{
	@Scheduled(cron="*/5 * * * * ?")
	public void demoServiceMethod()
	{
		System.out.println("Method executed at every 5 seconds. Current time is :: "+ new Date());
	}
}

And application configuration will look like this:

< ?xml  version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<beans xmlns="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans"
 xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
 xmlns:task="http://www.springframework.org/schema/task"
 xmlns:util="http://www.springframework.org/schema/util"
 xmlns:context="http://www.springframework.org/schema/context"
 xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans/spring-beans-3.0.xsd
 		http://www.springframework.org/schema/context/ http://www.springframework.org/schema/context/spring-context.xsd
 		http://www.springframework.org/schema/util/ http://www.springframework.org/schema/util/spring-util.xsd
      	http://www.springframework.org/schema/task/ http://www.springframework.org/schema/task/spring-task-3.0.xsd">

    <task:annotation-driven />

    <bean id="demoServiceBasicUsageCron" class="com.howtodoinjava.service.DemoServiceBasicUsageCron"></bean>

</beans>

4. Cron expression from properties file

In this method, cron attribute is used with @Scheduled annotation. Value of this attribute must be a cron expression as in previous method, BUT, this cron expression will be defined in a properties file and key of related property will be used in @Scheduled annotation.

This will decouple the cron expression from source code, thus making changes easy.

package com.howtodoinjava.service;

import java.util.Date;
import org.springframework.scheduling.annotation.Scheduled;

public class DemoServicePropertiesExample {

	@Scheduled(cron = "${cron.expression}")
	public void demoServiceMethod()
	{
		System.out.println("Method executed at every 5 seconds. Current time is :: "+ new Date());
	}

}

And application configuration will look like this:

<?xml  version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<beans xmlns="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans"
 xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
 xmlns:task="http://www.springframework.org/schema/task"
 xmlns:util="http://www.springframework.org/schema/util"
 xmlns:context="http://www.springframework.org/schema/context"
 xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans/spring-beans-3.0.xsd
 		http://www.springframework.org/schema/context/ http://www.springframework.org/schema/context/spring-context.xsd
 		http://www.springframework.org/schema/util/ http://www.springframework.org/schema/util/spring-util.xsd
      	http://www.springframework.org/schema/task/ http://www.springframework.org/schema/task/spring-task-3.0.xsd">

    <task:annotation-driven />

    <util:properties id="applicationProps" location="application.properties" />

	<context:property-placeholder properties-ref="applicationProps" />

    <bean id="demoServicePropertiesExample" class="com.howtodoinjava.service.DemoServicePropertiesExample"></bean>

</beans>

5. Cron expression in context configuration

In this method, cron expression is configured in properties file, and job scheduling is configured in configuration file using property key for cron expression. Major change is that you do not need to use @Scheduled annotation on any method. Method configuration is also done in application configuration file.

A sample class will look like this:

package com.howtodoinjava.service;

import java.util.Date;

public class DemoServiceXmlConfig
{
	public void demoServiceMethod()
	{
		System.out.println("Method executed at every 5 seconds. Current time is :: "+ new Date());
	}

}

And application configuration will look like this:

<?xml  version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<beans xmlns="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans"
 xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
 xmlns:task="http://www.springframework.org/schema/task"
 xmlns:util="http://www.springframework.org/schema/util"
 xmlns:context="http://www.springframework.org/schema/context"
 xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans/spring-beans-3.0.xsd
 		http://www.springframework.org/schema/context/ http://www.springframework.org/schema/context/spring-context.xsd
 		http://www.springframework.org/schema/util/ http://www.springframework.org/schema/util/spring-util.xsd
      	http://www.springframework.org/schema/task/ http://www.springframework.org/schema/task/spring-task-3.0.xsd">

    <task:annotation-driven />

    <util:properties id="applicationProps" location="application.properties" />

	<context:property-placeholder properties-ref="applicationProps" />

	<bean id="demoServiceXmlConfig" class="com.howtodoinjava.service.DemoServiceXmlConfig" />

	<task:scheduled-tasks>
	  	<task:scheduled ref="demoServiceXmlConfig" method="demoServiceMethod" cron="#{applicationProps['cron.expression']}"></task:scheduled>
	</task:scheduled-tasks>

</beans>

Thanks Lokesh, great article.
I am using @Scheduled in spring boot application, to send the new news after every 5minutes, find below code snippet:
```
@Component
public class NewsScheduler{

	@Scheduled(cron = "0 0/5 * 1/1 * ?" , zone="Asia/Calcutta")
	public synchronized void syncData() {
                 System.out.println("inside scheduled job ");
                 sendTodaysNews();
       }
}
```
But the problem is:
*** The code is not working on AWS EC2 windows server 2016 instance, but same is working on Elastic Beanstalk instance. There is no any log or exception printed so unable to trace it out.
Can you please help me? Many thanks in advance.

Somehow your properties are not resolved. ${cron.expression} should have been resolved. Check if file properties file is in classes folder after building source code.

Hi I have a spring mvc (4.2) based GUI web application to which I want to add a spring based scheduler. I am using the approach mentioned in method #2. What I have observed is that the scheduler does not run automatically when the application is deployed. However the scheduler starts only after the web application GUI is launched. Any idea how to start the scheduler when the web application is deployed?

  If you are using java annotation config, then you don’t need to define the beans in context file.

Load can be varying, burst of request can occur. How to handle such use case.
- Lokesh Gupta
  August 14, 2014
  
  I will bet on HornetQ. It performs real well under load. Not sure of @Async capability under load. You need to load test it first.

Hi Lokesh,

- Lokesh Gupta
  March 29, 2014
  
  Set/Save a flag in config table in database and mark it down when condition met. Everytime scheduler run, it should check the flag first before executing further.

    Thanks Lokesh. I have implemented it the same way and in addition I am using a static class variable to avoid calling database multiple times. I was expecting to have some ‘disable scheduling for current method’ kind of property from spring API. However I am fine with this too. Thanks again!!

- Lokesh Gupta

  @Async annotation helps in asynchronous processing, means you do not want to wait for completion of task. Use it when you have a valid usecase. Putting @Async annotation is enough.

- Lokesh Gupta
  October 4, 2013
  
  If I am understanding correctly, you want to schedule based on user preferences which multiple users can have differently, and schedule information stored in database. If it is your case, use something else e.g. quartz.

Hi,
I am planning to write a web-app to create appointments with teachers. Student should be able to create an appointment with teacher at a time. How can we do this using Spring.
Pradeep
September 18, 2013

Hi,
I referred to your Spring MVC blog and it was very useful to me. I am planning to write an application using java to schedule appointment with teachers. Students can fix appointment with teachers by specifying the time. Student can fix one slot with one teacher at a time. Once the time is fixed, the application should not allow the student or the teacher to book the slot to others.
How can I use the Spring scheduler to achieve this? Also can Spring take date and time values to set up an appointment? Please let me know how to do this in spring.
Regards,
Pradeep
- Lokesh Gupta
  September 18, 2013
  
  Why you need Spring scheduler for this. Schedulers are for executing a repeating task in certain interval. You just need to store appointment details in database using simple MVC and validate against it in other places.
  Am i missing anything?
  - Pradeep
    September 18, 2013
    
    But If I store the appointment details in the DB, I need to do a lot of validation so that the student cannot crete another appointment with someone at the same time, the teacher cannot have appointment with other student at the same time.. etc. Is there any better way to do this?
    - Lokesh Gupta
      September 18, 2013
      
      Why lots of validations? You can reduce lots of logic by creating well-thought SELECT queries and unique key constraints.
