Class TriggerBuilder<T extends Trigger>

java.lang.Object
  org.quartz.TriggerBuilder<T>

public class TriggerBuilder<T extends Trigger>
extends java.lang.Object

TriggerBuilder is used to instantiate Triggers.

Quartz provides a builder-style API for constructing scheduling-related entities via a Domain-Specific Language (DSL). The DSL can best be utilized through the usage of static imports of the methods on the classes TriggerBuilder, JobBuilder, DateBuilder, JobKey, TriggerKey and the various ScheduleBuilder implementations.

Client code can then use the DSL to write code such as this:

         JobDetail job = newJob(MyJob.class)
             .withIdentity("myJob")
             .build();
             
         Trigger trigger = newTrigger() 
             .withIdentity(triggerKey("myTrigger", "myTriggerGroup"))
             .withSchedule(simpleSchedule()
                 .withIntervalInHours(1)
                 .repeatForever())
             .startAt(futureDate(10, MINUTES))
             .build();
         
         scheduler.scheduleJob(job, trigger);
