    WordPress has the own cron system.

    For using cron by command line need to change wp-config.php :

    1. Open your wp-config.php file

    2. Go to the bottom of the database settings in wp-config.php. Add the code:

    define('DISABLE_WP_CRON', 'true');

    For scheduling your task need to use the function "wp_schedule_event"

    register_activation_hook( __FILE__, 'wpshout_plugin_activation' );

function wpshout_plugin_activation() {
    if ( ! wp_next_scheduled( 'wpshout_do_thing' ) ) {
        wp_schedule_event( time(), 'daily', 'wpshout_do_thing' );
    }
}

    After this, you can add the cron command to "Cron Jobs":

    php -q /home3/samadha1/xxxx.in/wp-cron.php

    You could just include wp-load.php from your your cfile.php.

    <?php
require_once __DIR__ . '/../../../wp-load.php';

// check if woo-wallet has been enabled 
if (!is_plugin_active('woo-wallet/woo-wallet.php')) {
  echo 'woo-wallet plugin is not active';
  exit(1);
}

// call any function of woo-wallet
