Description Vladimir Rutsky 2014-06-18 12:20:36 UTC 
gimp_export_image() from libgimp/gimpexport.h is not available to Python plugins.

It's useful for writing export plugins, I suggest to export it to Python.
Comment 1 Joao S. O. Bueno 2014-06-20 23:06:57 UTC 
Fixed in GIMP Master - should be available for GIMP 2.10.

In GIMP 2.8, I  advise one to simply perform the work of gimp_export_image
in the plug-in side. 

It is a 4-5 function call sequence, in most cases:

saving_image = pdb.gimp_image_duplicate(img)
saving_drawable = pdb.gimp_image_merge_visible_layers(saving_image)
# convert color spaces if needed.
pdb.gimp_file_save(...)
pdb.gimp_image_delete(saving_image)
