I'd like to change the settings for Language Switcher from the command line (as part of a bash script I run after a fresh installation of Ubuntu 16.04 LTS) to be like in the screenshot:
This is how it shows up in dconf-editor:
command-line input-language

It looks like the only keys being changed aresourcesandxkb-options. You could simply set those keys to the values seen here usinggsettings

Changing to Hebrew (second item in the sources list):
gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.input-sources current 1
Changing to English (US) (first item in the sources list):
gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.input-sources current 0
Note: This does not apply as from Ubuntu 17.10, since it uses GNOME and the keys for the purpose are slightly different.
Edit:
Changing the shortcut for switching input source to "Shift+Alt L":
gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.wm.keybindings switch-input-source "['<Shift>Alt_L']"

thanks Gunnar, but it seems I wasn't clear: Right after installing Ubuntu, the default key combination to switch between sources is set toSuper+Space(god knows why...) and I'd like to change it toALT+Shift Lfrom within a bash script I run post-installation.

Great! Worked! My only problem - I run the script as superuser. This change is user specific. Is there a way to set it globally - so every user that logs in to that machine gets this setting as a default?

@PenguinCSC: This is untested, but editing/usr/share/glib-2.0/schemas/org.gnome.desktop.wm.keybindings.gschema.xmlmay be what you want.

Looks promising. I'll try. Thank you!
