How do I programatically move the application window to current desktop?

In KDE it's really easy to setup window rules to be able to put application windows on specific desktop etc.
But how this can be done programmatically (not via keyboard shortcuts) but via scripting?
Particularly I'm interested to show the ksysguard application window (if it's running) on the current desktop after pressing a keyboard shortcut.

wmctrl tool can do this and really easy.
Prerequisites
Install wmctrl:
sudo apt install wmctrl
Use
"System Monitor" is the window name of ksysguard tool so we will use it:
# Switch window's desktop to current and activate that window:
wmctrl -R "System Monitor"
To make this even more robust we can use window's WM_CLASS (for ksysguard tool it's ksysguard):
# Switch window's desktop to current and activate that window:
wmctrl -x -R ksysguard
