|
|
<para><command>gsettings</command> offers a simple commandline
|
|
interface to <link linkend="GSettings"><type>GSettings</type></link>.
|
|
It lets you get, set or monitor an individual key for changes.
|
|
</para>
|
|
<para>
|
|
The <replaceable>SCHEMA</replaceable> and <replaceable>KEY</replaceable>
|
|
arguments are required for most commands to specify the schema id and the
|
|
name of the key to operate on. The schema id may optionally have a
|
|
:<replaceable>PATH</replaceable> suffix. Specifying the path is only needed
|
|
if the schema does not have a fixed path.
|
|
</para>
|
|
<para>
|
|
When setting a key, you also need specify a <replaceable>VALUE</replaceable>
|
|
The format for the value is that of a serialized
|
|
<link linkend="GVariant"><type>GVariant</type></link>,
|
|
so e.g. a string
|
|
must include explicit quotes: "'foo'". This format is also used when printing
|
|
out values.
|
|
</para>
|
|
<para>
|
|
Note that gsettings needs a D-Bus session bus connection to write changes to
|
|
the dconf database.
