Spring Boot Scheduler using java pojo/enum in cron

Question

I want to use java expression inside cron for scheduling in Spring Boot.

@Scheduled(cron = "${FileConfig.FileEnum.getScheduleTime()}" )
public void scheduleFetchFiles() {

...//method body

}

Is there a direct way to use pojo object or enum value in cron?

It seems you just want any way to inject the value. You are betting of just setting it via property than the return value of a method.

@Scheduled(cron = "${scheduledTimes.cron}")
public void scheduleFetchFiles() {

...//method body

}

Where scheduledTimes.cron is specified in your properties.
