Kohana 3.2 has support for cli (command line interface), and can be used like this:
php -q /path/to/kohana/site/index.php --uri=cron/update_demo_data This example assumes there is a Controller_Cron with an action_update_demo_data()
----...
Send an email in Kohana using the built in email class(module). In this case we are using a html email view and passing in a variable and then passing it over to the email handler.
