It can be done via gsettings.

  1. Find the key you need(play around with grep to find the exact key, its easy):

    # gsettings list-recursively | grep hotcorner
org.pantheon.desktop.gala.behavior hotcorner-custom-command ''
org.pantheon.desktop.gala.behavior hotcorner-bottomright 'none'
org.pantheon.desktop.gala.behavior hotcorner-topright 'none'
org.pantheon.desktop.gala.behavior hotcorner-bottomleft 'window-overview'
org.pantheon.desktop.gala.behavior hotcorner-topleft 'none'

  2. Next - set it (example below sets top-left corner to open slingshot, the applications menu):

    # gsettings set  org.pantheon.desktop.gala.behavior hotcorner-topleft 'open-launcher'
