Programmatically export a Qgis project

Question

I have a QGis project that I programmatically modify using the Python xml.etree library. Now, I would like to know if it is possible to add few lines to my script in order to export the modified project to a new jpg image. The python script should be run OUTSIDE the QGis python console. Thanks!

Export from composer, with map, title, labels, tables, logos... thanks! — Andreampa, Aug 13 '14 at 20:58

You may use the printPageAsRaster (int page) function from the QgsComposition class

print composer page to image If the image does not fit into memory, a null image is returned More...

This Q/A gives an example of it exporting to png (which you can change to jpg).

Programmatically load composer from template and generate atlas using pyQgis
