Change xfce4-power-manager option from terminal
I'd like to change a xfce4-power-manager
setting (what to do when laptop lid is closed on AC) via the terminal so that I can assign a keyboard shortcut to do it.
Is there a way how to do it? Similar to dconf-editor set
for gnome..
EDIT
ok, I found the file at ~/.config/xfce4/xfconf/xfce-perchannel-xml/xfce4-power-manager.xml
. But changing it doesn't do anything. How do I reload xfce4-power-manager
? I tried xfce4-power-manager --restart
but that doesn't help.
Solution 1:
Found it, have to use xconf-query
.
To get the value:
xfconf-query -c xfce4-power-manager -p /xfce4-power-manager/lid-action-on-ac
To set the value:
xfconf-query -c xfce4-power-manager -p /xfce4-power-manager/lid-action-on-ac -s 1
-c
specify channel, -p
is for property within that channel, -s
is for setting value, 1
for suspend, 0
for do nothing.
