You don't need to register the python code as a plugin if you are only using it in this kind of script.

Link to a ZIP with a sample Python script and a sample shell

Can I improve this somehow?

I have a gimp plugin as myplugin.py. I want to run this from the command line on given file(s). I wrote this script which works, but I'm wondering if I can improve it at all. I have this script in a folder, and the plugin in a subfolder gimpplugin/

FILENAME="$1" if [ ! -f "$FILENAME" ]; then
echo File not found - you must pass the psd file to be converted with gimp
exit 1
fi
BASE="${FILENAME%.*}"
mkdir "$BASE"
DIR_OF_THIS_SCRIPT="$( cd "$( dirname "${BASH_SOURCE[0]}" )" && pwd )" echo "(plug-in-path
\"\${gimp_dir}/plug-ins:\${gimp_plug_in_dir}/plug-ins:$DIR_OF_THIS_SCRIPT/gimpplugin\")"

gimprc

gimp -i -g gimprc -b "
(let* ((image (car (gimp-file-load RUN-NONINTERACTIVE \"$FILENAME\" \"$FILENAME\")))
(drawable (car (gimp-image-get-active-layer image)))) (python-fu-myplugin RUN-NONINTERACTIVE image drawable) (gimp-image-delete image))" -b '(gimp-quit 0)'

rm gimprc echo $BASE done
