How do I schedule a build job in Jenkins from 8 PM to 6 AM?

Question

I need to schedule a Jenkins job for every minute from 8 PM to 6 AM. Is there any way to do this in Jenkins? The hour options are from 0-23: for example it will work with * 6-20 * * * (from 6 am to 8 pm) but I want something like * 20-6 * * * .

Answer 1

You can apply more than one schedule for a Jenkins job.

0 0/1 20/1 ? * * *
0 0/1 0-6 ? * * *

The first expression will build the job every minute starting at minute 00 , every hour starting at 20:00 , of every day.
The second expression will build the job every minute starting at minute 00 , every hour between 00:00 and 06:00 , of every day.
In this way the job is scheduled to build every minute from 8 PM to 6 AM.
