Cron job w/o cron task manager

[b33c00l]

Hi,

I want to create a cron job for my custom module but I don't want to use cron task manager as it needs to be installed by the user. I tried to search for the documentation but did not across any referring to cron jobs for Prestashop (1.6 - 1.7). Please advise. Thank You.

But which is the problem? AFAIK, Cron Task manager is not automatic, the user has to create the task.

I don't want for the user to be doing anything.  I want the module to do the product, order, customer sync in the background so I have to set the cron job inside the module.

Build some endpoints in your module, cron.php files or whatever and call with with your fave cron app

In that case, all who downloads a module will have to set up a call, I don't want that.
