CI and cron - El Forum - 05-18-2011

I must write a cron script to use with my application. Doing it in CI would speed up the writing process. Is it a good (I mean mostly safe) idea to run this script in cron by using wget? Or maybe, there is other, better way?

you can run CI directly as a cron job.

although, there is a bug when running cli from cron. you'll probably need to apply this patch for now: https://bitbucket.org/ellislab/codeigniter-reactor/issue/274/codeigniter-cli
