How to force fragment cache on rails from cron schedule?

Question

Is there any way I can trigger a page to be fragment cached without having someone to load the page the first time?

I am planning to use cron schedule, this is because my cron scheduler updates the database and that's when I want to force the fragment cache to happen.

Thanks.

It's a primitive solution but you could always have cron fire off a curl request to the URL of your page(s).
