Load config via Nix

[DanConwayDev]

I want to use nix to store my roo-code config. How are the settings currently stored as I can probably populate this using nixos?

Hello @DanConwayDev! I'm Dosu, here to help you solve bugs, answer questions, and navigate your way to becoming a contributor. While you wait for a human maintainer, feel free to ask me anything!

Roo Code configurations are stored in JSON format. There are two main configuration files:

1. Global Configuration: Stored in mcp_settings.json, accessible via VS Code settings. This configuration applies across all workspaces unless overridden by a project-level configuration.

2. Project-level Configuration: Located in a .roo/mcp.json file within the project's root directory. This allows for project-specific configurations and takes precedence over the global configuration if a server name exists in both ^[1][2].

Currently, there is no specific guidance or integration steps for using Nix or similar tools for configuration management in the Roo Code documentation ^[3]. However, you can potentially use Nix to manage these JSON files by populating them with the necessary configuration data.

Thanks @dosu. where is mcp_settings.json located on linux?

[dosubot[bot]]

On Linux, the mcp_settings.json file is typically located in the user's home directory under .config/roo-code/. You can navigate to this path to find and manage your global configuration settings.

@dosu that was the first place I looked but it seems to be stored in .config/VSCodium/User/globalStorage/rooveterinaryinc.roo-cline/settings/mcp_settings.json

Hey @DanConwayDev! It looks like you've found the mcp_settings.json file in a different location. I'm here to help with bugs and technical questions, but I can't dive into specifics about file locations beyond what's documented. If you think I should have more info on this, feel free to reach out to the Dosu Team. They'll be happy to hear your feedback! 😊

.config/VSCodium/User/globalStorage/rooveterinaryinc.roo-cline doesnt contain the config eg api keys and settings that I'm looknig for.
Perhaps they are stored elsewhere or we could run the 'import' script with a config file?
