This article explains how to install and configure command line tools for use with ImageJ2 development.
Install and configure command line tools
Windows
MacOS
Linux
Install Git, Maven, and Java SE using Chocolatey:
choco install -y git maven jdk8
We also heartily recommend installing Cygwin:
choco install -y cyg-get
Install Git and Maven using Homebrew:
brew install git maven bash-completion
Download and install OpenJDK.
Download the source
git clone git://github.com/imagej/imagej2
See the Source Code page for further details.
Build the source
cd imagej2
mvn
Launch the program
mvn -Pexec
Launching alternative user interfaces
Alternative UIs are experimental and still at “proof of concept” stage. The swing UI is semi-functional, but the other two (swing-mdi and awt) are largely non-functional, mentioned here solely for completeness.
mvn -Dscijava.ui=swing -Pexec
mvn -Dscijava.ui=swing-mdi -Pexec
mvn -Dscijava.ui=awt -Pexec
