I have a FOR loop for parsing xml file as parts, but I using a $_GET paramets to receive variable sending at the end of loop in URL (meta http-equiv="Refresh" content="0; url...). In Web browser everything works fine but I want to use CRON job to do it automatically. So it is possible to do something like this? I'll be very grateful for any advice or example
My code:
$name = 'tmp_add_xml';
if(isset($_GET['file'])){
$xmlfile = 'import/'.$_GET['file'].'.xml';
} else {
$xmlfile = 'import/'.$name.'.xml';
$xmlurl = 'URL_XML_FILE';
$downxml = file_get_contents($xmlurl);
file_put_contents($xmlfile, $downxml);
}
$xml = simplexml_load_file($xmlfile);
$xml_offer = $xml->xpath("//offer");
$total = count($xml_offer);
if(isset($_GET['x']) && isset($_GET['exist']) && isset($_GET['added'])){
$x = $_GET['x'];
$product_exist = $_GET['exist'];
$product_added = $_GET['added'];
} else {
$x = $product_exist = $product_added = 0;
}
$limit = $x+1000;
for($z = $x; $z <= $limit; $z++){
$productid = $xml_offer[$z]->id;
if(mysql_num_rows(mysql_query("SELECT reference FROM ps_product WHERE reference = '".$productid."'")) > 0){
$product_exist++;
} else {
$product_added++;
}
if($z==$total){
echo 'Import 100%';
exit;
} elseif($z==$limit){
print '<meta http-equiv="Refresh" content="0; url='.$_SERVER['PHP_SELF'].'?x='.($x+1).'&file='.$name.'&exist='.$product_exist.'&added='.$product_added.'">';
exit;
}
$x++;
}
URL: script_name.php?x=VARIABLE&file=VARIABLE&exist=VARIABLE&added=VARIABLE

If you want to pass parameters to a cron, use $argv
sample.php
<?php
print_r($argv);
exit;
?>
...
> php sample.php apples oranges
Array
(
[0] => sample.php
[1] => apples
[2] => oranges
)
