title: Typo3 scheduler: Can i somehow execute Action of controllers of my extension with it? Or how to run my own code with it?
body: <p>A while ago i was tasked to program a Typo3 extension to write so called .conf files for the icinga2 montoring tool (has nothing to do with Typo3). Still let me explain some parts of it: Basically the backend user needs to create records of records of specific classes and set values for each records properties. Then i need to process the records to create these .conf files with the specific values with a php script. </p>
  
  <p>I was tasked to use the scheduler in Typo3 for this. And here come the problems: How do i use this? I checked the documentation (<a href="https://docs.typo3.org/typo3cms/extensions/scheduler/Introduction/Index.html" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https://docs.typo3.org/typo3cms/extensions/scheduler/Introduction/Index.html</a>), but i still can't wrap my head around how to use it for my task. I can easily write an Action in a controller of a class to be executed in the frontend and in turn generate the con files... basically manually without the scheduler. But where do i put my php code to be run by the scheduler? I somehow seem not to understand the basical principle of the scheduler. Can i just run an Action of a specific controller of a class of my extension like i would in the Frontend via the scheduler?</p>
