gkale Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 I am working on developing a search engine that gives results based on the data stored in MySQL. MySQL will get all the data from RSS feeds. I want to program this in a way so that the RSS feeds are refreshed and downloaded in MySQL every 6 hours. Is this something possible or should I look at other tools to do this? Thanks..

Maq Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 You would either use a crontab (linux) or task scheduler (windows) to execute your script every 6 hours.

ttocskcaj Posted February 2, 2011 Share Posted February 2, 2011 I would probably use python, or another scripting language you know. (not php) to update the mysql table from feeds. And use a scheduler like Maq said, to run it every 6 hours. Correct me if I'm wrong. using py over php may not have any advantages..
