Gnome-shell-pomodoro settings are stored with GSettings which uses dconf as the backend store. It's a simple Key based configuration system.

We recommend you use the Options menu to configure Pomodoro extension. If you still want to tinker with settings, you can use dconf-editor, settings for pomodoro are in org->gnome->shell->extensions->pomodoro tree.

Pomodoro gschema file also lists all configuration options.

Available options (in order of appearance in Options menu)

<UI Text> | <DConf key> <value type> : <Description>

  • Reset Counts and Timers : resets your pomodoro session count
  • Away from desk | away-from-desk <bool> : Automatically start next pomodoro session after pause. Useful if you're sitting away from computer.
  • Control presence status | change-presence-status <bool> : During a pomodoro session, mark your IM presence status to Busy
  • Show dialog messages | show-notification-dialogs <bool> : After completion of a pomodoro session, show a dialog box (system modal) that will force you to take a break :)
  • Sound notifications | play-sounds <bool> : Notify completion of pomodoro by playing a sound

To change the sound played for Pomodoro events, you can modify sound-uri with gsettings; or replace ~/.local/share/gnome-shell/extensions/pomodoro@arun.codito.in/bell.wav file.
