[Cialug] Linux Classes

[David Champion]

If I need to do MySQL scripting, I usually write it in PHP. You can set up
PHP to run from the command-line (most distros have a package for that). If
you're running the MySQL script as part of a web app, this allows you to use
the same business logic code for the script and the web site.

You can also script calls to wget a PHP web page in cron tasks, but I don't
recommend that method.
