Gsettings-info is a command line tool. It allows you to get gschema information which the gsettings command does not give. You can get summary, description, default value, and/or type of keys. If the specified gschema is gettextized and its message catalog is installed, you will get translated schema info.
::
$ gsettings-info help Usage: gsettings-info COMMAND [ARGS...]
Commands: help Show this information summary Get the summary of keys desc Get the description of keys default Get the default value of keys show Show the information of keys
Use 'gsettings-info help COMMAND' to get detailed help
To get the descprition of the key 'autorotate' in the schema 'org.gnome.eog.view'
::
$ gsettings-info desc org.gnome.eog.view autorotate Whether the image should be rotated automatically based on EXIF orientation.
If no key is given, you get the description of all the keys in the schema.
::
$ gsettings-info desc org.gnome.eog.view autorotate: Whether the image should be rotated automatically based on EXIF orientation. background-color: The color that is used to fill the area behind the image. If the use-background-color key is not set, the color is determined by the active GTK+ theme instead. interpolate: Whether the image should be interpolated on zoom-out. This leads to better quality but is somewhat slower than non-interpolated images. extrapolate: Whether the image should be extrapolated on zoom-in. This leads to blurry quality and is somewhat slower than non-extrapolated images. transparency: Determines how transparency should be indicated. Valid values are CHECK_PATTERN, COLOR and NONE. If COLOR is chosen, then the trans-color key determines the color value used. scroll-wheel-zoom: Whether the scroll wheel should be used for zooming. zoom-multiplier: The multiplier to be applied when using the mouse scroll wheel for zooming. This value defines the zooming step used for each scroll event. For example, 0.05 results in a 5% zoom increment for each scroll event and 1.00 result in a 100% zoom increment. trans-color: If the transparency key has the value COLOR, then this key determines the color which is used for indicating transparency. use-background-color: If this is active, the color set by the background-color key will be used to fill the area behind the image. If it is not set, the current GTK+ theme will determine the fill color.
You can get a summary or a default value as well as description like that. Gsettings-info shows all the information of keys as below.
::
$ gsettings-info show org.gnome.eog.view KEY: autorotate TYPE: b SUMMARY: Automatic orientation DESCRIPTION: Whether the image should be rotated automatically based on EXIF orientation. DEFAULT: true
KEY: background-color TYPE: s SUMMARY: Background Color DESCRIPTION: The color that is used to fill the area behind the image. If the use-background-color key is not set, the color is determined by the active GTK+ theme instead. DEFAULT: '#000000'
KEY: interpolate TYPE: b SUMMARY: Interpolate Image DESCRIPTION: Whether the image should be interpolated on zoom-out. This leads to better quality but is somewhat slower than non-interpolated images. DEFAULT: true
KEY: extrapolate TYPE: b SUMMARY: Extrapolate Image DESCRIPTION: Whether the image should be extrapolated on zoom-in. This leads to blurry quality and is somewhat slower than non-extrapolated images. DEFAULT: true
KEY: transparency TYPE: SUMMARY: Transparency indicator DESCRIPTION: Determines how transparency should be indicated. Valid values are CHECK_PATTERN, COLOR and NONE. If COLOR is chosen, then the trans-color key determines the color value used. DEFAULT: 'checked'
KEY: scroll-wheel-zoom TYPE: b SUMMARY: Scroll wheel zoom DESCRIPTION: Whether the scroll wheel should be used for zooming. DEFAULT: true
KEY: zoom-multiplier TYPE: d SUMMARY: Zoom multiplier DESCRIPTION: The multiplier to be applied when using the mouse scroll wheel for zooming. This value defines the zooming step used for each scroll event. For example, 0.05 results in a 5% zoom increment for each scroll event and 1.00 result in a 100% zoom increment. DEFAULT: 0.05
KEY: trans-color TYPE: s SUMMARY: Transparency color DESCRIPTION: If the transparency key has the value COLOR, then this key determines the color which is used for indicating transparency. DEFAULT: '#000000'
KEY: use-background-color TYPE: b SUMMARY: Use a custom background color DESCRIPTION: If this is active, the color set by the background-color key will be used to fill the area behind the image. If it is not set, the current GTK+ theme will determine the fill color. DEFAULT: true
The program supports completion for bash and zsh.
bash
To take advantage of bash completion feature, load
completion/bash/gsettings-info in your ~/.bash_completion.
You can load it using the source command or dot (.) command. For more
details, see the bash manual ($ man bash).
zshTo take advantage of zsh completion feature, copy completion/zsh/_gsettings-info into ${prefix}/zsh/site-functions/ ($prefix is /usr/local in most cases) or your private directory. If you copy it into your private directory, make sure that the direcotry is included in $fpath.
