How to set up a php script to run via cron?

Question

PHP

Good afternoon!
There is a php script for importing goods. There are a lot of goods and it is necessary to import them in parts, for example, 50 pieces. I usually do this with ajax, saving the steps to the session and restarting the script. But now we need the script to run automatically without user intervention.
I tried to run the path / to / script.php from the php console, I thought that there were no limits and you could do without steps, but after a few seconds it says Killed.
How can I do this via cron so that the script runs every day and imports the products in batches? Can cron work with sessions and restart the script within the same task?
