Run PHP code from command line on Linux:

$php code.php

Add PHP file to run as a cron job:

$crontab -e

Add the schedule to cron.

Ex:

1 0 * * *  /usr/bin/php /var/www/code.php > /dev/null 2>&1

You can Use PHP CLI to run your code.

Like

$php -q /var/www/code.php

and using crontab -l and crontab -e command you can setup cronjobs.
