How do I import an iTerm2 profile?

问题

This question helped me with how to export a profile configuration file, but how do I import that file into iterm2 on my new machine?

(the file I exported was called com.googlecode.iterm2.plist, for what it's worth)

回答1:

just upload your *.plist to ~/Library/Preferences.
Notice, that checkbox:

Load preferences from a custom folder or URL

in Preferences - General (at the bottom) must be disabled.

回答2:

1. First export all the profiles from iTerm2 as below:

   • Go to Profiles
   • Open Profiles
   • Edit Profiles
   • Other actions
   • Copy All Profiles as JSON
   • Save it to some place you will remember

2. How to import from above JSON file format which is actually a plist format:

   • go to your home directory cd ~
   • cd Library/Application Support/iTerm2/DynamicProfiles
   • copy your json file you saves to this DynamicProfiles folder
   • cp {backuppath-where-you-exported-in-step1}/itermprofiles.json .

3. Restart iTerm2 now in profiles it should show all your old profiles
