Not sure what you mean by "color tag" but the color picker can be invoked with:
color = pdb.gimp_image_pick_color(image, drawable, x, y, sample_merged, sample_average, average_radius)

For each layer you can assign a 'color tag' in the properties dialog. They don't affect the image, but artists use them to mark layers.

How to get color tag of layer in python plugin script?

According to ./libgimp/gimpitem_pdb.c:879, gimp_item_get_color_tag gets the color tag of the specified item.

Does that help?

color_tag = pdb.gimp_item_get_color_tag(item)

I noticed that the layers dialog got really large. Thanks for the pointer!

Thanks! It would be cool if it was a property on the layer itself in python, and if there was a version that returned the actual colour name instead of a number. (there isn't, right?)

/Filers/Python Fu/Console has a browser button that gives a

searchable list of what can be done. I suggest that you search for "tag".

Thanks - I don't see anything other than the get and set function, so I think this confirms that there is no method for getting the color tag as a string. This is something that needs to be converted manually I think.

I was pleased to find that the new Layers Dialog is not just a pretty face....
