Programatically Delete Products by Sku ( Using CSV )

Hi All, Recently while working on a project. I need to delete products from Magento and I only have a CSV having all the product's SKU. For that I have written a script which reads SKU from CSV file and deleting products.

Below is the code which you can use:

        
<?php

//Path to Magento

require_once('app/Mage.php');

umask(0);

Mage::app();

ini_set('display_errors', 1);



// Register a secure admin environment

Mage::register('isSecureArea', 1);



$file = "remove_product.csv"; // CSV File name with SKU's

$fileData=fopen($file,'r');



if (($handle = fopen("remove_product.csv", "r")) !== FALSE) {

  while (($data = fgetcsv($handle, 1000, ",")) !== FALSE) {

    $num = count($data);

    $row++;

    for ($c=0; $c < $num; $c++) {

        echo $data[$c] . "<br />\n";

        $sku = $data[$c];

        $product = Mage::getModel('catalog/product')->loadByAttribute('sku',  $sku);

        if($product) {

            try {

                $product->delete();

                echo $productSku . " Deleted<br>";

            } catch (Exception $e) {

                echo $productSku . " Not Deleted<br>";

            }

        } else {

            echo $productSku . " Not Available<br>";

        }

    }

  }

  fclose($handle);

}
