That should be enough to get it running. Go to the export selected module on the right in lighttable view, drop down the target storage list and you should see file to collection as a choice. If you select an image, then choose the export format, then choose export, it will show up in the collection grouped with the original image.

    I created contrib/export2collection.lua that adds a new exporter,
    file to collection. The selected images are exported, then
    imported back into the collection and grouped with the original
    images.  All tags, except the darktable ones, are copied over as
    well as any ratings.  The pull request has been submitted to get
    it into the script repository.  In the meantime you can get it

        There is no reload. It's called re-import.
        Feel free to google the differences.

        Until/unless the image is imported into the darktable's
        library, darktable
        does not know anything about it. If you want to see such an
        image,
        you need to import it.

        How?
        Lua can add export formats. I'm sure it is possible to adapt
        one of the existing
        scripts at https://github.com/darktable-org/lua-scripts
        <https://github.com/darktable-org/lua-scripts> to re-import
        after export.
        (basically by running  $ darktable <exported file>  if there
        is dbus,
        it will iimport
        the image in the current darktable instance.)
