[Feature Request] Implement Settings Export #1962

Closed rotorgames closed 10 months ago

rotorgames commented 10 months ago

I wonder if I have ability to export all Fork settings into the .json file (or smth else) to keep a backup of all my settings and commands in the safe place just in case if my laptop is broken.

I found only an option to save commands locally into the repository but this is not what I'm looking for.

Cheers.

Custom commands and the list of repos are stored in ~/Library/Application Support/com.DanPristupov.Fork

@DanPristupov Thank you for the quick response. How's it safe using this db file as a backup? What if you make major changes in the file in over time and I'll not be able to use it? Or a structure of the file is not changing at all?

You only need *.json files, the db file is obsolete.

There is migration from the old config formats, but it was never tested in manual mode (i.e. when you have a settings you need to import).

Anyway, there's not much settings in Fork, excepting custom commands, so I think saving custom-commands.json should be enough.
