Correct workflow for importing new products in a CLI script?

[itsnewtjam]

I've been poking around trying to setup a CLI script that we could use to periodically import a CSV of product data (updates to existing products as well as new products). I thought I was on the right track using the Populator and Importer classes but I'm not having much luck. The script runs okay, but I don't see anything reflected in the Admin UI.

I'm sure I'm just overlooking something obvious, but if anyone could point me in the right direction I'd really appreciate it!

Hi!

Do you see anything in the database? Also, the populator is only intended for new products - it will not update existing products but will create a new one instead.
