 It seems the problem was that directory must not be an array. This one worked for me:
 context.setupexternalfigures { directory = 'images,' .. resolvers.expandpath('IMG_PATH') }
 
 Thanks,
 Gilles

\directlua{
     context.setupexternalfigures {
%         directory = { 'images', 
(string.gsub(os.getenv('IMG_PATH'),'\\', '/')) }
%         directory = { 'images', 
resolvers.cleanpath(os.getenv('IMG_PATH')) }
         directory = { 'images', resolvers.expandpath('IMG_PATH') }
     }
}

(or pass the path on the command line, say --imagepath=... and get it 
with document.arguments.imagepath)

Using context.setupexternalfigures

[moi]

Hi,
I'm trying to setup the path for images using environment variables but
calling context.setupexternalfigures does not work for me. I am using the
latest version 2018.10.08 17:44 on Windows.

\directlua{
% This one works fine
%context("\\setupexternalfigures[directory={images, " ..
os.getenv('IMG_PATH'):gsub('\\', '/') .. "}]")
% Those do not (state: unknown)
context.setupexternalfigures({directory = {{'images',
os.getenv('IMG_PATH'):gsub('\\', '/')}}})
context.setupexternalfigures {directory = {{'images',
os.getenv('IMG_PATH'):gsub('\\', '/')}}} 
context.setupexternalfigures({'images', os.getenv('TEX_PATH'):gsub('\\',
'/')})
}
\starttext
\externalfigure[cow]
\stoptext

Called with $env:IMG_PATH =
'D:\Applications\Context\tex\texmf-context\tex\context\sample\common';
context test.tex

Additionally, using a path with non-ascii symbols in environment variables
does not seem to work at all but this is not a big issue for me.

How should I call context.setupexternalfigures?

Best regards,
Gilles
