NAME

6       cronnext - time of next job cron will execute
7

SYNOPSIS

9       cronnext [-i  users] [-e users] [-s] [-a] [-t time] [-q time] [-l] [-c]
10                [-f] [-h] [-V] [file]...
11

DESCRIPTION

13       Determine the time cron will execute the next job.  Without  arguments,
14       it  prints  that  time  considering  all crontabs, in number of seconds
15       since the Epoch, rounded to the minute. This number  can  be  converted
16       into other formats using date(1), like date --date @43243254
17
18       The  file  arguments  are  optional. If provided, cronnext uses them as
19       crontabs instead of the ones installed in the system.

OPTIONS

22       -i user,user,user,...
23              Consider only the crontabs of the specified users.  Use *system*
24              for the system crontab.
25
26       -e user,user,user,...
27              Do not consider the crontabs of the specified users.
28
29       -s     Do  not  consider  the  system crontab, usually the /etc/crontab
30              file.  The system crontab usually contains  the  hourly,  daily,
31              weekly  and  montly  crontabs,  which might be better dealt with
32              anacron(8).
33
34       -a     Use the crontabs installed in the system in addition to the ones
35              passed as file arguments. This is implicit if no file is passed.
36
37       -t time
38              Determine the next job from this time, instead of now.  The time
39              is expressed in number of seconds since the Epoch,  as  obtained
40              for  example  by  date +%s --date "now + 2 hours", and is inter‐
41              nally rounded to the minute.
42
43       -q time
44              Do not check jobs over this time, expressed in the same  way  as
45              in option -t.
46
47       -l     Print the whole entries of the jobs that are the next to be exe‐
48              cuted by cron.  The default is to only print their next time  of
49              execution.
50
51       -c     Print every entry in every crontab with the next time it is exe‐
52              cuted.
53
54       -f     Print all jobs that are executed in the given interval. Requires
55              option -q.
56
57       -h     Print usage output and exit.
58
59       -V     Print version and exit.
