I want to automatically transfer data from a web scraper (title, website content) to a MySQL database. Both run via an Apache web server and the aim is to automatically fill a content management system with content.

The web server and the database itself already exist. Unfortunately, I don’t know how to transfer data from the scraper to the database. My first idea was a cronjob, which executes a PHP script regularly.
I don’t know how and whether this is possible at all, so I would appreciate any tips and solutions.
