Running tasks on schedule

Hello!

I want to send email notification to the users regularly. That means that some script should be running automatically on a regular basis. How to achieve this in CI?

As I see it's a general scheduling tool for the Unix environment. Any specifics for tying CI to it?

[eluser]InsiteFX[/eluser]
Do a search in the forums here, lots of users have posted code for doing it.

It's the same as executing CI via the CLI, which is in the manual.

That's how you'd create the entry in crontab (or task scheduler in windows).
