mise generate config

• Usage: mise generate config [FLAGS] [PATH]
• Effect: destructive — may delete or irreversibly overwrite
• Source code: src/cli/generate/config.rs

Generate a mise.toml file

Same as mise edit, which has the details. It opens the interactive editor, or without an interactive terminal (or with --yes) writes a commented starter template. If PATH already exists it stops with an error rather than replace the file; pass --force to replace it.

Arguments

• [PATH] — Config file to edit or create; defaults to mise.toml

Flags

• -g --global — Generate the global config file (~/.config/mise/config.toml)
• -n --dry-run — Print the result instead of writing it to the file
• -f --force — Replace an existing file with the starter template when not opening the editor
• -t --tool-versions <FILE> — Copy the tools from this .tool-versions file into the config, without opening the editor
• -h --help — Print help

Examples

Edit mise.toml in the current directory

mise generate config

Print the result instead of writing it

mise generate config -n
