Rails - Feb 2006 - make a method in a controller do something by console script

is there a possibility to automate a method in a controller by a ruby 
script ,

i have written a method which is taking rssfeeds from other sites and 
puts it to my database , but i want to have this method called each 15 
minutes , can you do it by a console script or do i have build a 
stand-alone program?
can somebody put me on the correct track?or give me some hints

greets

Klaas

Hi.
You could use the runner script to execute your method(s).

For example:

ruby script/runner -e production ''Import.run()''

Where ''Import'' is the model and ''run'' is the
method.

Put it in crontab and you are good to go!
