Magento allows you to schedule custom tasks in an XML configuration, in a similar manner to the UNIX crontab style. Here is an example from app/code/core/Mage/CatalogRule/etc/config.xml:
Expand |
Embed | Plain Text
Copy this code and paste it in your HTML
<config> ... <crontab> <jobs> <catalogrule_apply_all> <schedule><cron_expr>0 1 * * *</cron_expr></schedule> <run><model>catalogrule/observer::dailyCatalogUpdate</model></run> </catalogrule_apply_all> </jobs> ... </crontab> ... </config>
