I have a script file for parsing through a SQLite database. I now need to create a CRON job that will download and unzip said database from a third-party (already hosting as SQLITE). I understand this can be done using WGET and UNZIP, but given Heroku's read only file system, is this possible entirely in memory? Thanks.
