is there any jvm util (hopefully in kotlin) for dealing/expressing POSIX cron syntax nicely in Kotlin?

There's at least this one: https://github.com/jmrozanec/cron-utils. It's Java, so the API will not be as good as it could, but it does the job if you don't find anything else

uhm, too much verbose, I think I'm gonna do in my own

Thanks anyway 🙂

remember you can always improve an existing API with extension methods and DSL in general, so you could use that lib and adapt its API the way you want, as opposed to writing an utility from scratch

I went with a small builder class in my lib

nothing standalone

both quartz and jobrunr have code for parsing cron expressions. But both are not small

I see, thanks
