I want to have a trigger to see if there are any changes in the SVN every night from Monday to Friday at 22:00. I understand that I must put the following syntax "H 22 ** 1-5" is this correct?
At the root of this I have a question:
The company is in Spain, then what time is 22:00 Spanish or American?
Thank you very much and best regards.
You can set your timezone by logging into your instance and then going to JENKINS_URL/configure (Global properties).

How to setup jenkins job to only run biweekly at 8 AM in the morning.
Considering only the working days, Monday through Friday.
Basically running the build every second Friday.
You can use the following cron expression
0 8 8-14,22-28 * 5
The format explained looks as:
{Minute} {Hour} {DayOfMonth} {Month} {DayofWeek}

This doesn't work, refer issue JENKINS-19756
However, a workaround that doesn't look good but works, check this answer.
Another workaround, that looks fine but works little erratically:
*0 7 1-7,15-21,29-31 * 1*
"all Mondays in 1st, 3rd and 5th week"
(error in this one: if there's a 5th week, it works its next week as well as its the first week of next month)
My goal is for the app's viewController to do something when it reaches 6:00 pm server time. The problem is that if I use the generic code:
let timestamp = FIRServerValue.timestamp(),
Then it only gets called once, and I can't see the data updated to check against 6:00. Any solutions or workarounds would be very helpful. Thank you in advance.
Once you get the timestamp, compare it to the difference of your current computer. So for instance if you get it at it's 4:01 but your current computer is 4:00 then you know you have +1 minutes.
Then just wait for 6:00 - difference, in this case 1 minute and your server time will read 5:59 but firebase will be +1 therefore it will be 6:00.
I tried to schedule a job run every 28 days but still not have solution yet.
Please help!
Thank!
As the documentation shows, using */X executes in intervals of X.
So, applying this to the "day of month" field, under "Build periodically", you could use the following to build at some consistent point in time once every 28 days:
H H */28 * 2
As an example, the 2 at the end signifies that the build should run on a Tuesday. Otherwise, it will probably build on whatever day of the week the current month started with.
I didn't try it yet so I may be wrong, but how about putting days as hours.
For example, if you want to run Jenkins job every 10 days, you schedule it to run every 240 hours.
Task: Given every zipcode of locations in US, I need to get the exact utf_timeoffset and exact dst(daytime savings offset), but I can ignore zip_code belonging to AP/FPO/DPO.
I need take into account of the timezone differences inside each state, and also need care about the exception of Hawaii, Arizona and several zipcode in PR, VI when it comes to daylight savings between Mar 11 2013, 2:00 and Nov 3 2013, 2:00.
I wonder if there is a standard module existing in Pytz(the famous timezone s/w package), because I can't located any proper function with zip_code parameter. Besides, I am perfectly fine with other package than pytz, and also any other programming languages other than Python.
At the same time, with some handmade code, I have managed to get "time_zone name" and "utf_time offset" for each zip_code. Based on provision of some websites, I also managed to get a copy of dataset containing zip_code and their daylight savings flag. A.K.A the current dst policy for each zip_code in US)
So far It works fine, but I dont really trust my own code, didn't get a way to validate its correctness.
No, pytz do not have such a functionality. See also: Mapping US zip code to time zone
Do you have the option to use the raw ZIP code data? Because if you do, it might be very helpful to use a zip code database such as the kind you would find here. They have the ZIP code associated with specific time zones as well as daylight savings info for each one. Looks like the annual price is currently $139 for 12 monthly updates.
I don't work there but I know a lot about ZIP codes and addresses since I work at SmartyStreets.
In some versions of crontab you can set the time zone for when the job should run like:
TZ=GMT
30 11 * * *
This would run at 11:30am GMT every day, even if the server was in some other time zone.
Even though Jenkins scheduling is based on cron, it doesn't seem to have this specific syntax. Is there some other way to do this in Jenkins?
Thanks
As Michael mentioned in his answer, this functionality was added. Here's an example:
TZ=Europe/Kiev
0 1 * * 5
That would run at 1:00 AM Ukraine time, once a week on Friday.
To get the names of time zones to use, you can use the column marked "TZ database name" in https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_tz_database_time_zones
Looks like they added this in 2.60.2.
There's no way to do this in Jenkins. You could trigger the builds by calling a URL from cron though.
Edit: This has since been added; see the other answers.
