gsettings

Query and modify dconf settings with schema validation.

=> More information.

• Set the value of a key. Fails if the key doesn't exist or the value is out of range:

gsettings set {org.example.schema} {example-key} {value}

• Print the value of a key or the schema-provided default if the key has not been set in dconf:

gsetings get {org.example.schema} {example-key}

• Unset a key, so that its schema default value will be used:

gsettings reset {org.example.schema} {example-key}

• Display all (non-relocatable) schemas, keys, and values:

gsettings list-recursively

• Display all keys and values (default if not set) from one schema:

gsettings list-recursively {org.example.schema}

• Display schema-allowed values for a key (helpful with enum keys):

gsettings range {org.example.schema} {example-key}

• Display the human-readable description of a key:

gsettings describe {org.example.schema} {example-key}
