Import Products

Hi guys,

I need your help. I was wondering how I do a batch or massive import of products without sql queries because it's quite tedious.

viewtopic.php?f=9&t=415 (option 2)

In my view, the easier way would be to use the CatalogService with "saveProduct" method. But, I don't understand how to put it into a context on Spring.

viewtopic.php?f=11&t=1528

I'm thinking in two ways (always using CatalogService) in which I find the same problem (Spring context and how to execute/test):

- Make an external program or application able to comunicate with database

- Extending a Service in a new package (core)

To be honest, I'm a dummy :roll: with Spring so it's very difficult for me to do use of service layer in Broadleaf.

I have also noticed that in Admin there is a way to create a new product, so maybe it's a good idea to understand how it was did and tested. If I understand this (unfortunately, I have not done it yet), it would seem easier.

In conclusion, what are the basic steps to get this infrastructure. I feel lost.

Any Ideas?

Before at all, I am thankful for your assistance
