Create your CRON job logic as a 'normal' CI controller function.

Then, in your standard, non-CI, PHP cronjob file just load the URL of the controller via

get_get_contents('http:example.com/cronjob/');

This will treat the URL as being hit just as by any other user and the entire CI framework is at your disposal in the CI controller.

You create a regular controller that performs the actions you wish the be executed, and then set up the cronjob in for example cPanel like this:

/usr/local/bin/php /home/sitefolder/public_html/index.php/controller/function
