HMVC Cron - menilanjan - 11-19-2019
I am using codeigniter HMVC for my project. I have set a function named with "updateCustomer". Everyday 5am this file will be run.
File path is application/modules/cron/controllers/Cron.php.
How will I set cron job for HMVC architecture? Please suggest

You need someone or something to open the controller function via a HTTP request for this to work. In this case you just need to hit URL at
/Cron/updateCustomer
Making a script for this is super easy in python. Here is some code you can use to run it everyday at 5:00 (Server time). Untested so let me know if you encounter any errors.
Code:
import schedule, requests
URL = 'http://localhost/Cron/updateCustomer'
def Cronjob():
try:
BU = requests.session()
result = BU.get(URL)
print(result.content)
except Exception as e:
#oops we have an error
print(e)
schedule.every().day.at("5:00").do(Cronjob)
print ('Waiting to start......')
while True:
schedule.run_pending()
time.sleep(10)
