Name

xdg-settings - get various settings from the desktop environment

Synopsis

xdg-settings { get | check | set } {property} [subproperty] [value]

xdg-settings { --help | --list | --manual | --version }

Description

xdg-settings gets various settings from the desktop environment. For instance,
desktop environments often provide proxy configuration and default web browser
settings. Using xdg-settings these parameters can be extracted for use by
applications that do not use the desktop environment's libraries (which would
use the settings natively).

xdg-settings is for use inside a desktop session only. It is not recommended to
use xdg-settings as root.

Options

--help
    Show command synopsis.
--list
    List all properties xdg-settings knows about.
--manual
    Show this manualpage.
--version
    Show the xdg-utils version information.

Properties

When using xdg-settings to get, check or set a destkop setting, properties and
possibly sub-properties are used to specify the setting to be changed.

Some properties (such as default-web-browser) fully describe the setting to be
changed. Other properties (such as default-url-scheme-handler) require more
information (in this case the actual scheme to set the default handler for)
which must be provided in a sub-property.

Exit Codes

An exit code of 0 indicates success while a non-zero exit code indicates
failure. The following failure codes can be returned:

1
    Error in command line syntax.
2
    One of the files passed on the command line did not exist.
3
    A required tool could not be found.
4
    The action failed.

Examples

Get the desktop file name of the current default web browser

        xdg-settings get default-web-browser


Check whether the default web browser is firefox.desktop, which can be false
even if "get default-web-browser" says that is the current value (if only some
of the underlying settings actually reflect that value)

        xdg-settings check default-web-browser firefox.desktop


Set the default web browser to google-chrome.desktop

        xdg-settings set default-web-browser google-chrome.desktop


Set the default mailto URL scheme handler to be evolution.desktop

        xdg-settings set default-url-scheme-handler mailto evolution.desktop
