Spring Boot offers several conveniences for working with the Quartz scheduler, including the spring-boot-starter-quartz ‘Starter’. If Quartz is available, a Scheduler will be auto-configured (via the SchedulerFactoryBean abstraction).

Beans of the following types will be automatically picked up and associated with the the Scheduler:

By default, an in-memory JobStore will be used. However, it is possible to configure a JDBC-based store if a DataSource bean is available in your application and if the spring.quartz.job-store-type property is configured accordingly:

spring.quartz.job-store-type=jdbc

When the jdbc store is used, the schema can be initialized on startup:

spring.quartz.jdbc.initialize-schema=true

	Note
	The database is detected by default and initialized using the standard scripts provided with the Quartz library. It is also possible to provide a custom script using the spring.quartz.jdbc.schema property.

Quartz Scheduler configuration can be customized using Quartz configuration properties (see spring.quartz.properties.*) and SchedulerFactoryBeanCustomizer beans which allow programmatic SchedulerFactoryBean customization.

Job can define setters to inject data map properties. Regular beans can also be injected in a similar manner:

public class SampleJob extends QuartzJobBean {

	private MyService myService;
	private String name;

	// Inject "MyService" bean
	public void setMyService(MyService myService) { ... }

	// Inject the "name" job data property
	public void setName(String name) { ... }

	@Override
	protected void executeInternal(JobExecutionContext context)
			throws JobExecutionException {
		...
	}

}
