How to export all attributes and attribute sets from one magento installation and import to other installation?
I've done this to export all attributes and their options (if it is a dropdown attribute) from the source website:
exportAttributes.php in root directory of source website:
<?php
define('MAGENTO', realpath(dirname(__FILE__)));
require_once MAGENTO . '/app/Mage.php';
Mage::app();
$entity_type_id = Mage::getModel('catalog/product')->getResource()->getTypeId();
prepareCollection($entity_type_id);
function prepareCollection($ent_type_id){
$resource = Mage::getSingleton('core/resource');
$connection = $resource->getConnection('core_read');
$select_attribs = $connection->select()
->from(array('ea'=>$resource->getTableName('eav/attribute')))
->join(array('c_ea'=>$resource->getTableName('catalog/eav_attribute')), 'ea.attribute_id = c_ea.attribute_id');
// ->join(array('e_ao'=>$resource->getTableName('eav/attribute_option'), array('option_id')), 'c_ea.attribute_id = e_ao.attribute_id')
// ->join(array('e_aov'=>$resource->getTableName('eav/attribute_option_value'), array('value')), 'e_ao.option_id = e_aov.option_id and store_id = 0')
$select_prod_attribs = $select_attribs->where('ea.entity_type_id = '.$ent_type_id)
->order('ea.attribute_id ASC');
$product_attributes = $connection->fetchAll($select_prod_attribs);
$select_attrib_option = $select_attribs
->join(array('e_ao'=>$resource->getTableName('eav/attribute_option'), array('option_id')), 'c_ea.attribute_id = e_ao.attribute_id')
->join(array('e_aov'=>$resource->getTableName('eav/attribute_option_value'), array('value')), 'e_ao.option_id = e_aov.option_id and store_id = 0')
->order('e_ao.attribute_id ASC');
$product_attribute_options = $connection->fetchAll($select_attrib_option);
$attributesCollection = mergeCollections($product_attributes, $product_attribute_options);
prepareCsv($attributesCollection);
}
function mergeCollections($product_attributes, $product_attribute_options){
foreach($product_attributes as $key => $_prodAttrib){
$values = array();
$attribId = $_prodAttrib['attribute_id'];
foreach($product_attribute_options as $pao){
if($pao['attribute_id'] == $attribId){
$values[] = $pao['value'];
}
}
if(count($values) > 0){
$values = implode(";", $values);
$product_attributes[$key]['_options'] = $values;
}
else{
$product_attributes[$key]['_options'] = "";
}
/*
temp
*/
$product_attributes[$key]['attribute_code'] = $product_attributes[$key]['attribute_code'];
}
return $product_attributes;
}
function prepareCsv($attributesCollection, $filename = "importAttrib.csv", $delimiter = '|', $enclosure = '"'){
$f = fopen('php://memory', 'w');
$first = true;
foreach ($attributesCollection as $line) {
if($first){
$titles = array();
foreach($line as $field => $val){
$titles[] = $field;
}
fputcsv($f, $titles, $delimiter, $enclosure);
$first = false;
}
fputcsv($f, $line, $delimiter, $enclosure);
}
fseek($f, 0);
header('Content-Type: application/csv');
header('Content-Disposition: attachement; filename="'.$filename.'"');
fpassthru($f);
}
This will give a csv file [actually i used "|" to separate ;)] paste this csv file in MAGENTO_ROOT/attribImport directory of the destination website, i.e. website to which attributes need to be imported:
now put the following code in MAGENTO_ROOT/attribImport** directory of the destination website
<?php
define('MAGENTO', realpath(dirname(__FILE__)));
require_once MAGENTO . '/../app/Mage.php';
Mage::app();
// $fileName = MAGENTO . '/var/import/importAttrib.csv';
$fileName = 'importAttrib.csv';
// getCsv($fileName);
getAttributeCsv($fileName);
function getAttributeCsv($fileName){
// $csv = array_map("str_getcsv", file($fileName,FILE_SKIP_EMPTY_LINES));
$file = fopen($fileName,"r");
while(!feof($file)){
$csv[] = fgetcsv($file, 0, '|');
}
$keys = array_shift($csv);
foreach ($csv as $i=>$row) {
$csv[$i] = array_combine($keys, $row);
}
foreach($csv as $row){
$labelText = $row['frontend_label'];
$attributeCode = $row['attribute_code'];
if($row['_options'] != "")
$options = explode(";", $row['_options']); // add this to createAttribute parameters and call "addAttributeValue" function.
else
$options = -1;
if($row['apply_to'] != "")
$productTypes = explode(",", $row['apply_to']);
else
$productTypes = -1;
unset($row['frontend_label'], $row['attribute_code'], $row['_options'], $row['apply_to'], $row['attribute_id'], $row['entity_type_id'], $row['search_weight']);
createAttribute($labelText, $attributeCode, $row, $productTypes, -1, $options);
}
}

NOTE: Allthough exceptions have been handled, Backup your Database before you import these attributes, to be on safer side. Happy Importing!
