This article explains how to install and configure command line tools for use with ImageJ2 development.
Install and configure command line tools
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.
sudo apt-get install default-jdk git maven
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
