Documentation - Deedolith - 01-08-2025

Hello,

I am looking for any Gimp 3 python API documentation link.

For now, I am mainly searching on Google, wich most of the time, yeld Gimp 2 API results (outdated), or C API (nice but translating from C to python is a PITA, too many trials and errors).

Given that the API doc is auto-generated, not much incentive for anyone to write a Python version that could be invalidated by the next release.

But converting C to Python is not that hard. The main problem is that the doc is all over the place (Gimp, GimpUi,  Gegl, Babl, Gobject, Gegl procedures...)

I copied this from a post on GimpChat. The HTML documentation is very useful.

Browse to gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gimp/-/artifacts
Search for dev-docs
Search for gimp-api-docs-3.0.0-RC1+git.tar.xz
Download the zip, unpack it.
Find HTML-based documentation in gimp-api-docs-3.0.0-RC1+git/g-ir-docs/html/python/Gimp-3.0
