[Feature Suggestion] Export only enabled mods

[YoYoK3nny]

Would be cool if only the enabled mods were exported. (When clicking "Modlist Backup Only This Game")

I've looked at how Vortex stores the enabled state of mods. Following is the json paths needed. (Anything between <> is obtained elsewhere):

profileId: settings.profiles.lastActiveProfile.<game> type is string

isEnabled: persistent.profiles.<profileId>.modState.<mod.attributes.name>.enabled type is boolean

Should be viable whether or not profile management is enabled (Since the default profile for each game has to be there regardless)

Thanks for the suggestion. I've been thinking about this, and I wanted to do it as part of a larger feature where it also backs up the different profiles that you have, and can then restore mods to the same enabled/disabled state across multiple profiles.

A full featured profile backup/restore system might take me a while to do though (mostly because I don't use profiles), so you're right and I should allow this one feature, then people can have per-profile mod list backups on their own

a handful of years late to the conversation, but i'd request a possibility to export enabled mods in deploy order. Idea being, it would help in migrating from Vortex to MO2 with bigger modlists. If an update to do such thing is not in the pipeline(i expect not, considering the date of the last version of this extension), some pointers would suffice so i could attempt to do it myself.

Reasoning being that, while we do have the mod manager migrator tool, it doesnt make a 1:1 copy of the deploy order and due to that, a lot of manual work is needed to have your loadorder identical in both modmanagers, especially if you got a ton of rules in vortex. Having a export file with all mods in deploy order which could be converted to a form that MO2 can use to organize mods accordingly would save a lot of time and effort for people who want or need to migrate to MO2(in a sense i was lucky to have just 466mods with most being about in the right place, but still had to relocate ~100mods with both managers open on their own screens to make sure everything is 1:1)
