Guide to remove or delete products of a particular attribute set in Magento 2.

In this guide, I am going to show you, how to remove the product of a particular attribute set in Magento 2 programmatically?

First of all, you have to create a file called “deleteProducts.php” on Magento 2 root directory.

And then paste the below code into that file.

<?php
set_time_limit(0);
ini_set('display_errors', 1);
ini_set('memory_limit', -1);
use \Magento\Framework\App\Bootstrap;
require __DIR__ . '/app/bootstrap.php';

$bootstraps = Bootstrap::create(BP, $_SERVER);
$objectManager = $bootstraps->getObjectManager();


deleteAllProducts($objectManager);
 
function deleteAllProducts($objectManager) {
 
    $objectManager->get('\Magento\Framework\Registry')->register('isSecureArea', true);

    $attrSetName = 'Dress'; // Atribute set name
    $attribute_set_factoryCollection = $objectManager->get('\Magento\Eav\Model\ResourceModel\Entity\Attribute\Set\CollectionFactory');

    $attribute_set_collection = $attribute_set_factoryCollection->create();

    $attribute_set_collection
    ->addFieldToFilter('entity_type_id',4)
    ->addFieldToFilter('attribute_set_name',$attrSetName);

    $att_set = current($attribute_set_collection->getData());
    $attribute_set_id = $att_set["attribute_set_id"];

    $productCollection = $objectManager->create('\Magento\Catalog\Model\ResourceModel\Product\CollectionFactory');
    $collection = $productCollection->create()->addAttributeToSelect('*')->addFieldToFilter('attribute_set_id',$attribute_set_id)->load();
    $app_state = $objectManager->get('\Magento\Framework\App\State');
    $app_state->setAreaCode('frontend');

    foreach ($collection as $product){
        try {
            echo 'Deleted '.$product->getName().PHP_EOL;
            $product->delete();
        } catch (Exception $e) {
            echo 'Failed to remove product '.$product->getName() .PHP_EOL;
            echo $e->getMessage() . "n" .PHP_EOL;
        }
    }      
}

<?php

set_time_limit(0);

ini_set('display_errors', 1);

ini_set('memory_limit', -1);

use \Magento\Framework\App\Bootstrap;

require __DIR__ . '/app/bootstrap.php';

$bootstraps = Bootstrap::create(BP, $_SERVER);

$objectManager = $bootstraps->getObjectManager();

deleteAllProducts($objectManager);

function deleteAllProducts($objectManager) {

$objectManager->get('\Magento\Framework\Registry')->register('isSecureArea', true);

$attrSetName = 'Dress'; // Atribute set name

$attribute_set_factoryCollection = $objectManager->get('\Magento\Eav\Model\ResourceModel\Entity\Attribute\Set\CollectionFactory');

$attribute_set_collection = $attribute_set_factoryCollection->create();

$attribute_set_collection

->addFieldToFilter('entity_type_id',4)

->addFieldToFilter('attribute_set_name',$attrSetName);

$att_set = current($attribute_set_collection->getData());

$attribute_set_id = $att_set["attribute_set_id"];

$productCollection = $objectManager->create('\Magento\Catalog\Model\ResourceModel\Product\CollectionFactory');

$collection = $productCollection->create()->addAttributeToSelect('*')->addFieldToFilter('attribute_set_id',$attribute_set_id)->load();

$app_state = $objectManager->get('\Magento\Framework\App\State');

$app_state->setAreaCode('frontend');

foreach ($collection as $product){

try {

echo 'Deleted '.$product->getName().PHP_EOL;

$product->delete();

} catch (Exception $e) {

echo 'Failed to remove product '.$product->getName() .PHP_EOL;

echo $e->getMessage() . "n" .PHP_EOL;

}

And now you can run this file through cronjob and URL.

So the URL will be like this : http://yourdomainname/deleteProducts.php

That’s it.
