Switched from Ubuntu Budgie to KDE Plasma and I am excited.
I created a simple bash script for Ubuntu Budgie to automatically adjust a few things with regard to the desktop, panel layout, theme etc. Enabling Night Light at 21PM etc. Basic stuff + install some apps and remove some. Not hard core tweaking.
To figure out what command I needed to for example enable dark mode, on Gnome I could run this:
dconf watch /
Then open Settings and start tinkering around. In terminal I would see the commands. Next, I could easily create a bash script using that info.
I tried the same command with Manjaro (KDE), but nothing happens.
With KDE Plasma, does something similar exist?
You should read about kcmshell5 and other KDE cli tools. That’s probably not all command you need to know, sometimes you need to reload module or all Plasma – read about command line options for kwin and plasmashell. You also need to know config file names and parameters (required for modifying with kwriteconfig5) – most of them are placed in ~/.config directory. If you need something more advanced, read KDE System Administration - KDE UserBase Wiki.
