I want to import Configurable Product along with their associative products and images.
I imported the products it associative products are coming in configurable product but images are not uploaded for product.
can anyone help me out??
First save your product with all data without images, then load your product by sku
$image = 'abc.jpg';
$importDir = Mage::getBaseDir('media') . DS . 'import/'; //put your images in this folder
$imgpath = $importDir.$image;
$ConfigproductImg = Mage::getModel('catalog/product')->loadByAttribute('sku',$sku); //load product by sku
$simpleproductImg->setMediaGallery(array('images' => array(), 'values' => array()));//
$simpleproductImg->addImageToMediaGallery($imgpath, array('image','thumbnail','small_image'), false, false); // set images to media gallery
$simpleproductImg->save(); //save product
I have the following issue in Magento 1.9: there are categories with a lot of products in them and the default sort order is by position and all product position in Magento backend is 1. So what happens is that when you open a category on the frontend a lot of similar products show first followed by another set of similar type of products. I want to randomize their positions somehow (by a script or anything else) so that different kind of products show mixed together.
For example I have categories wine,
champagne and whisky and products
in them and I also have category birthday products that includes products from these categories. And when the category is opened on the frontend first a lot of whisky products
are shown then a lot of wine ... etc I want them mixed. Thanks in advance for
any help!
You can do as below :
First get the category :
$category = Mage::getModel('catalog/category')
->setStoreId(Mage_Core_Model_App::ADMIN_STORE_ID)
->load($categoryId);
Then its product positions :
$products = $category->getProductsPosition();
This will be an array organized like this :
product_id_1 => position_1
product_id_1 => position_2
So foreach one of those products just set a random position (here between 0 and 9999) :
foreach($products as $productId => $position ){
$products[$productId] = '' . rand(0,9999);
}
And finally save :
$category->setPostedProducts($products);
$category->save();
Here is below a script that you could put in /shell magento directory :
<?php
require_once './abstract.php';
class RandomCategoryOrder extends Mage_Shell_Abstract {
private $_categoryId = 188;
public function run(){
$category = Mage::getModel('catalog/category')
->setStoreId(Mage_Core_Model_App::ADMIN_STORE_ID)
->load($this->_categoryId);
$products = $category->getProductsPosition();
foreach($products as $productId => $position ){
$products[$productId] = '' . rand(0,9999);
}
$category->setPostedProducts($products);
try{
$category->save();
}catch(Exception $e){
echo $e->getMessage();
}
}
}
$randowCategoryOrder = new RandomCategoryOrder();
$randowCategoryOrder->run();
When I empty the 'image cache'
I run this script:
<?php
apc_clear_cache();
require '../app/Mage.php';
function getImages($store){
Mage::app()->setCurrentStore($store);
$products = Mage::getModel('catalog/product')->getCollection();
$products->addAttributeToSelect('name');
foreach($products as $product) {
echo 'product: '.$product->name.' IMAGE: '.$product->getImageUrl().'<br>';
}
}
foreach (Mage::app()->getWebsites() as $website) {
echo $website;
foreach ($website->getGroups() as $group) {
$stores = $group->getStores();
foreach ($stores as $store) {
getImages($store);
}
}
}
echo 'done';
What I want is that all the images in the cache get refreshed, but they don't (only when I load the urls in the browser)
How can I do this?
To create the images, you need to use the Mage::helper('catalog/image').
The problem is, that only the template file knows in which dimensions the image is needed, therefore you have to copy the code from the template (and all the other places where you have product images) and create the different sizes of the images via the helper.
One tipp: The create is in the __toString() method.
The following code deleting product data & images from magento store by entit_id.
$product_id = 22894; //use your own product id
$mediaApi = Mage::getModel("catalog/product_attribute_media_api");
try {
$items = $mediaApi->items($product_id);
foreach($items as $item) {
$mediaApi->remove($product_id, $item['file']);
Mage::getModel("catalog/product")->load( $product_id )->delete();
echo $product_id." >>> "." Product deleted Successfully";
}
} catch (Exception $exception){
var_dump($exception);
die('Exception Thrown');
}
This script deleting all product data and images, but image file is not delete from folder. How can I delete file from storage folder.
Thanks in advance !
If $item['file'] is path to file on filesystem you can try to use
unlink($item['file']);
after deleting product data.
This must be a such a simple programming task that I absolutely cannot find any information about it on the net. Basically, I'm trying to DELETE product images. I want to delete all images from a product's media gallery. Can I do this without wading through a million lines of code for such a simple task?
Please note that I've already tried this:
$attributes = $product->getTypeInstance()->getSetAttributes();
if (isset($attributes['media_gallery'])) {
$gallery = $attributes['media_gallery'];
$galleryData = $product->getMediaGallery();//this returns NULL
foreach($galleryData['images'] as $image){
if ($gallery->getBackend()->getImage($product, $image['file'])) {
$gallery->getBackend()->removeImage($product, $image['file']);
}
}
}
This absolutely does not work. I'm trying to delete images during an import so that I do not keep accruing duplicates. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Okay, this is how I finally fixed my problem.
if ($product->getId()){
$mediaApi = Mage::getModel("catalog/product_attribute_media_api");
$items = $mediaApi->items($product->getId());
foreach($items as $item)
$mediaApi->remove($product->getId(), $item['file']);
}
This is the link that finally set my head straight: http://www.magentocommerce.com/wiki/doc/webservices-api/api/catalog_product_attribute_media
Too bad it's not as simple as $product->getImages(), eh?
In Magento 1.7.0.2 I use this code for remove all images from a product gallery:
//deleting
Mage::app()->getStore()->setId(Mage_Core_Model_App::ADMIN_STORE_ID);
$mediaApi = Mage::getModel("catalog/product_attribute_media_api");
$items = $mediaApi->items($product->getId());
$attributes = $product->getTypeInstance()->getSetAttributes();
$gallery = $attributes['media_gallery'];
foreach($items as $item){
if ($gallery->getBackend()->getImage($product, $item['file'])) {
$gallery->getBackend()->removeImage($product, $item['file']);
}
}
$product->save();
With code from Davids Tay answer, I got the error:
Fatal error: Uncaught exception ‘Mage_Eav_Model_Entity_Attribute_Exception’ with message ‘SQLSTATE[23000]: Integrity constraint violation: 1452 Cannot add or update a child row: a foreign key constraint fails (base_xxx.catalog_product_entity_media_gallery_value, CONSTRAINT FK_CAT_PRD_ENTT_MDA_GLR_VAL_VAL_ID_CAT_PRD_ENTT_MDA_GLR_VAL_ID FOREIGN KEY (value_id) REFERENCES `catalog_prod)’
To remove all images from a product gallery:
$product = Mage::getModel('catalog/product')->load($id);
$mediaGalleryAttribute = Mage::getModel('catalog/resource_eav_attribute')->loadByCode($entityTypeId, 'media_gallery');
$gallery = $product->getMediaGalleryImages();
foreach ($gallery as $image)
$mediaGalleryAttribute->getBackend()->removeImage($product, $image->getFile());
$product->save();
During deleting of images I found one interesting thing. When you try this code:
$galleryData = $product->getMediaGallery(); //this returns NULL
Media gallery object depends on how your product was created, if:
$product = Mage::getModel('catalog/product')->loadByAttr('sku', $sku);
then media gallery will be empty, if:
$product = Mage::getModel('catalog/product')->load($id);
then media gallery is object and you can use this object to delete images from db.
To delete images from file system you have to add such code:
#unlink(Mage::getBaseDir('media') . '\catalog\product\' . $image['file']);
but if you want to change image and name it like previous image (image1.png replace with image1.png) in this case you will have browser caching issue.
Also you can try to load media gallery for product:
$product->getResource()->getAttribute('media_gallery')->getBackend()->afterLoad($product);
This is the code I finally decided to use for this task.
protected function _removeMediaGalleryImages(Mage_Catalog_Model_Product $product)
{
$mediaGalleryData = $product->getMediaGallery();
if (!isset($mediaGalleryData['images']) || !is_array($mediaGalleryData['images'])) {
return;
}
$toDelete = array();
foreach ($mediaGalleryData['images'] as $image) {
$toDelete[] = $image['value_id'];
}
Mage::getResourceModel('catalog/product_attribute_backend_media')->deleteGallery($toDelete);
}
Hopefully this answer isn't unwelcome, as it's technically not a solution achieved via Magento programming as you ask, but I have successfully purged all gallery images myself for the same purpose simply by truncating the relevant tables in Magento 1.4.2.0 (I believe it's the same table structure in 1.5 as well).
TRUNCATE TABLE `catalog_product_entity_media_gallery`
TRUNCATE TABLE `catalog_product_entity_media_gallery_value`
Then follow up by removing all the image files within the /media/catalog/product directory.
I did look for a way to do this programmatically myself, but found this much more efficient and have experienced no negative side effects.
Just use this code to create .php file and place it to root folder of magento.
<?php
require_once 'app/Mage.php';
Mage::app();
Mage::app()->getStore()->setId(Mage_Core_Model_App::ADMIN_STORE_ID);
$products = Mage::getModel('catalog/product')->getCollection();
//->addAttributeToFilter('entity_id', array('gt' => 14000));
$mediaApi = Mage::getModel("catalog/product_attribute_media_api");
foreach($products as $product) {
$prodID = $product->getId();
$_product = Mage::getModel('catalog/product')->load($prodID);
$items = $mediaApi->items($_product->getId());
foreach($items as $item) {
$mediaApi->remove($_product->getId(), $item['file']);
}
}
?>
What About this
Mage::app()->getStore()->setId(Mage_Core_Model_App::ADMIN_STORE_ID);
$mediaApi = Mage::getModel("catalog/product_attribute_media_api");
$items = $mediaApi->items($product->getId());
$attributes = $product->getTypeInstance()->getSetAttributes();
$gallery = $attributes['media_gallery'];
foreach($items as $item){
if ($gallery->getBackend()->getImage($product, $item['file'])) {
$gallery->getBackend()->removeImage($product, $item['file']);
}
}
$product->save();
Fastest way to remove image,then follow below steps:
delete all records from
catalog_product_entity_media_gallery
catalog_product_entity_media_gallery_value'
table because magento is save all product image data at those table.
Then index from Index management from admin for set image black.
Then remove image from dir then goto Your magento dir at media/catalog/product and from this folder delete all file.
Another Process:
Andy Simpson,you need a script which is delete all product from your system which will delete from DB and file system.
Step1: Create a php at root direct of magento system which include Mage.php at first code.
require_once "YOURMAGENTODIR/app/Mage.php";
umask(0);
Step2: set current store is admin and set Developer mode
Mage::app('admin');
Mage::setIsDeveloperMode(true);
Step3: Get Product Collection and create a loop for get one product by one by one
$productCollection=Mage::getResourceModel('catalog/product_collection');
Step4: fetch product image by one and remove image one using below code:
$remove=Mage::getModel('catalog/product_attribute_media_api')->remove($product->getId(),$eachImge['file']);
FULL CODE:
<?php
require_once "YOURMAGENTODIR/app/Mage.php";
umask(0);
Mage::app('admin');
Mage::setIsDeveloperMode(true);
$productCollection=Mage::getResourceModel('catalog/product_collection');
foreach($productCollection as $product){
echo $product->getId();
echo "<br/>";
$MediaDir=Mage::getConfig()->getOptions()->getMediaDir();
echo $MediaCatalogDir=$MediaDir .DS . 'catalog' . DS . 'product';
echo "<br/>";
$MediaGallery=Mage::getModel('catalog/product_attribute_media_api')->items($product->getId());
echo "<pre>";
print_r($MediaGallery);
echo "</pre>";
foreach($MediaGallery as $eachImge){
$MediaDir=Mage::getConfig()->getOptions()->getMediaDir();
$MediaCatalogDir=$MediaDir .DS . 'catalog' . DS . 'product';
$DirImagePath=str_replace("/",DS,$eachImge['file']);
$DirImagePath=$DirImagePath;
// remove file from Dir
$io = new Varien_Io_File();
$io->rm($MediaCatalogDir.$DirImagePath);
$remove=Mage::getModel('catalog/product_attribute_media_api')->remove($product->getId(),$eachImge['file']);
}
}
If you want to remove more products like 1000 or 5000 then use bottom one with direct query.
Before try this one take backup of your database
<?php
require_once 'app/Mage.php';
umask(0);
Mage::app();
set_time_limit(0);
ini_set('display_error','1');
$resource = Mage::getSingleton('core/resource');
$connection = $resource->getConnection('core_write');
$id = 101;
$product = Mage::getModel('catalog/product')->load($id);
$q = "DELETE FROM `catalog_product_entity_media_gallery` where entity_id = '".$product->getId()."'";
$connection->query($q);
?>
Accessing the Database for such things is a bad idea.
You can delete images ( or reorder them by changing the 'position' value ) using the following snippet in a custom module ( for the sake of simplicity i'm using ObjectManager, but you should place ProductFactory and ProductRepositoryInterface in the constructor )
$objectManager = ObjectManager::getInstance();
//Get ProductFactory in order to instatiate the Product Object
$productFactory = $objectManager->get('\Magento\Catalog\Model\ProductFactory');
//We have to use ProductRepositoryInterface in order to save the changes bellow to the product
$productRepository = $objectManager->get('\Magento\Catalog\Api\ProductRepositoryInterface');
//Load a Product by ID in this case 1
$product = $productFactory->create()->load(1);
//Gets an array containing arrays representing each image in the gallery
$mediaGalleryEntries = $product->getMediaGalleryEntries();
//Here we delete every image, you can use conditions in foreach
foreach ($mediaGalleryEntries as $key => $imageEntry) {
unset($mediaGalleryEntries[$key]);
}
//Finally set the altered entries and save using productRepository
$product->setMediaGalleryEntries($mediaGalleryEntries);
$productRepository->save($product);
The code above tested in Magento 2.3 and it also removes images from the filesystem. You can use it to either delete or alter an entry ( change position, image roles etc )
To view each imageEntry you can access its data using $imageEntry->getData()
I had to do something similar not too long ago - needed to replace all product images during an import.
This link helped a lot: http://www.sharpdotinc.com/mdost/2010/03/02/magento-import-multiple-images-or-remove-images-durring-batch-import/
Hopefully it will give you a nudge in the right direction.
DELETE FROM catalog_product_entity_media_gallery WHERE value_id NOT IN (SELECT * FROM (SELECT MIN(value_id) FROM `catalog_product_entity_media_gallery` GROUP BY LEFT(value,17), entity_id having count(*) > 1) x)
why 17 ?
The expamle you have duplicate like this:
/0/0/000116810609_1.jpg
/0/0/000116810609_2.jpg
/0/0/000116810609_3.jpg
/0/0/000116810609_4.jpg
LEFT(value,17)
/0/0/000116810609
/0/0/000116810609
/0/0/000116810609
/0/0/000116810609
No they are duplicates ;)
Place the below script in magento root and execute
<?php
require_once("app/Mage.php");
umask(0);
Mage::app();
$ob = new Clean();
$ob->removemedia();
Class Clean {
function removemedia() {
$read = Mage::getSingleton('core/resource')->getConnection('core_read');
$select = $read->select()
->from('catalog_product_entity_media_gallery', '*')
->group(array('value_id'));
$flushImages = $read->fetchAll($select);
echo count($flushImages);
$array = array();
foreach ($flushImages as $item1) {
$array[] = $item1['value'];
}
$valores = $array;
$pepe = 'media' . DS . 'catalog' . DS . 'product';
$leer = $this->listDirectories($pepe);
foreach ($leer as $item) {
try {
$item = strtr($item, '\\', '/');
if (!in_array($item, $valores)) {
$valdir[]['filename'] = $item;
unlink('media/catalog/product' . $item);
}
} catch (Zend_Db_Exception $e) {
} catch (Exception $e) {
//Mage::log($e->getMessage());
}
}
}
function listDirectories($path) {
if (is_dir($path)) {
if ($dir = opendir($path)) {
while (($entry = readdir($dir)) !== false) {
if (preg_match('/^\./', $entry) != 1) {
if (is_dir($path . DS . $entry) && !in_array($entry, array('cache', 'watermark'))) {
$this->listDirectories($path . DS . $entry);
} elseif (!in_array($entry, array('cache', 'watermark')) && (strpos($entry, '.') != 0)) {
$this->result[] = substr($path . DS . $entry, 21);
}
}
}
closedir($dir);
}
}
return $this->result;
}
}
