Legacy 1.0.x Make Yapeal Automatic

Prev: Handling Sections

This is the last part of Starter Guide and will cover how to make Yapeal run automatic with a crontab job or the Windows Task Scheduler.

Linux (crontab)

For Linux (Unix) LAMP platforms you should read this guide: crontab Setup

Windows (Task Scheduler)

For Windows users, we haven't made any guide for it but you should be able to figure out from the commands you were using to manually run yapeal.php in the Testing Yapeal page and use the Task Scheduler that is built into Windows since Windows 2000.

You should also read this website on how you can setup a Task Scheduler: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/814596

Summary

We have now covered a lot things that should give you a very good start on using Yapeal and how to interface your software with it.

I hope you have enjoyed reading about it as well.
