Manage dconf settings¶

Here is an example (thanks @gmvelencoso) using dotdrop to manage dconf settings:

actions:
  dconf_load: dconf load "{0}" < "{{@@ _dotfile_abs_src @@}}"
trans_update:
  dconf_dump: dconf dump "{2}" > "{1}"
dconf_tilix:
    src: config/tilix/tilix.dconf
    dst: /tmp/tilix.dconf 
    actions:
      - dconf_load /com/gexperts/Tilix/
    trans_update: dconf_dump /com/gexperts/Tilix/
    link: nolink

On install/compare, the action dconf_load will call dconf to load the configuration from the file stored in the dotpath under config/tilix/tilix.dconf.

On update, the transformation trans_update will dump the configuration entry and use it to update the file in the dotpath.
