    I need the following:
    A script that fetches data from a database and creates attribute groups and attributes.

    Data structure 1)
    Key, Name

    Data structure 2)
    Group, Name
    Key, Name

    The script should create the Key in a custom attribute set (constant name, set by variable).

    e.g.
    T123 mDataitem1 (DisplayOrder 2)
    T124 mDataitem2 (DisplayOrder 1)

    And
    H123 eHeading2
    T123 eDataitem21
    H124 eHeading3
    T125 eDataitem31 (DisplayOrder 1)
    T126 eDataitem32 (DisplayOrder 2)

    This should result in the following structure:
    $attributeset
    $defaultcat
    Key T124 - Text mDataitem2
    Key T123 - Text mDataitem1

    And
    $attributeset
    H1234 - mHeading3
    T125 mDataitem31
    T126 mDataitem32

    To be used: in command line
    Field types: All fields should be Text fields by default that are comparable
    The specific parameters at creation should be editable in the script.
    Implementation: PHP is ok. Needs to be implemented via Mage, no API like SOAP or XMLRPC is permitted. Direct SQL is also possible, if it is guaranteed to clear the relevant caches.

    Please line out your solution approach before acceptance of this.
