A handy way to toggle Do Not Disturb in Gnome

toggle_dnd.sh

#!/bin/bash

# Get the current Do Not Disturb status
current_status=$(gsettings get org.gnome.desktop.notifications show-banners)

# Toggle the status
if [ "$current_status" = "true" ]; then
    gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.notifications show-banners false
    echo "Do Not Disturb mode activated"
else
    gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.notifications show-banners true
    echo "Do Not Disturb mode deactivated"
fi

# Make the script executable with the command:
# chmod +x toggle_dnd.sh

# Run the script to toggle Do Not Disturb mode:
# ./toggle_dnd.sh

# Want this to be an alias? No problem!

# Open your shell configuration file (usually ~/.bashrc for Bash or ~/.zshrc for Zsh) in a text editor.

# Add the following alias definition to the file:

# alias toggle_dnd='current_status=$(gsettings get org.gnome.desktop.notifications show-banners); if [ "$current_status" = "true" ]; then gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.notifications show-banners false && echo "Do Not Disturb mode activated"; else gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.notifications show-banners true && echo "Do Not Disturb mode deactivated"; fi'

# Save the file and close your text editor.

# To apply the changes immediately, source your shell configuration file:

# source ~/.bashrc  # If you're using Bash
# or
# source ~/.zshrc   # If you're using Zsh
