VS Code Extension Settings CLI - visual-studio-code

Question

I want to create an automated script for setting up VS Code.
Part of this is the installation of the extensions and configuring them as necessary.
So I was able to install the extensions via CLI, but can't find how to change the extension settings by only using the command line.
For example - I want to change Jest Runner settings. I found this on their readme:
Jest Runner will work out of the box, with a valid Jest config.
If you have a custom setup use the following options to configure Jest Runner:
| Command | Description |
| --- | --- |
| jestrunner.configPath | Jest config path (relative to ${workFolder} e.g. jest-config.json) |
| jestrunner.jestPath | Absolute path to jest bin file (e.g. /usr/lib/node_modules/jest/bin/jest.js) |
| jestrunner.debugOptions | Add or overwrite vscode debug configurations (only in debug mode) (e.g. `"jestrunner.debugOptions": { "args": ["--no-cache"] }`) |
| jestrunner.runOptions | Add CLI Options to the Jest Command (e.g. `"jestrunner.runOptions": ["--coverage", "--colors"]`) https://jestjs.io/docs/en/cli |
| jestrunner.jestCommand | Define an alternative Jest command (e.g. for Create React App and similar abstractions) |
| jestrunner.disableCodeLens | Disable CodeLens feature
| jestrunner.codeLensSelector | CodeLens will be shown on files matching this pattern (default **/*.{test,spec}.{js,jsx,ts,tsx})
But don't know how to access it via cmd.
Any thoughts on how to do this?
Thanks!

Was able to find a solution now.
So it turns out that the settings are actually stored in:
<userFolder>\AppData\Roaming\Code\User\Settings.json
From there I can open up the json file and add in the commands as specified by the extension's readme.
