You should make a search in the forum, this subjet already has an answer:

$data = new sfPropelData();
$data->dumpData(sfConfig::get('sf_data_dir').DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR.'fixtures/dump.yml');

Dump existing data into YAML file

http://www.symfony-project.org/forum/index.php/m/2046/#msg_2046

With symfony 1, this is now nice and easy….

Add your database settings to the config files.

Generate your schema from the database.

Build your objects.

Then create and run the following batch file…

<?php

define('SF_ROOT_DIR',    realpath(dirname(__FILE__).'/..'));
define('SF_APP',         'frontend');
define('SF_ENVIRONMENT', 'dev');
define('SF_DEBUG',       true);

require_once(SF_ROOT_DIR.DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR.'apps'.DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR.SF_APP.DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR.'config'.DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR.'config.php');

 // initialize database manager
$databaseManager = new sfDatabaseManager();
$databaseManager->initialize();

$data = new sfPropelData();
$data->dumpData(sfConfig::get('sf_data_dir').DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR.'fixtures/dump.yml');

?>
