There is no such command out of the shelf, I would personally just write a
short Python script to export the hosts (or anything else) in a format I need.

Example for host:

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
#!/usr/bin/python2

from ipalib import api
api.bootstrap(context='exporter', debug=False)
api.finalize()
api.Backend.xmlclient.connect()

hosts = api.Command['host_find']()['result']

for host in hosts:
   print host['fqdn'][0]
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

This will print one host for each new line.
