ImageJ as a Library or API

[vicbelletti]

Hello,
I'm new in Java and Image Processing and I'd like to know if it's possible to use the ImageJ as a library or API, like JAI.

I'd like to develop a simple app to open an image and apply some filters, but I don't want to develop a plugin for ImageJ, I want to make my own App...


Thank you and sorry for my english.

If you are truly committed to not using a macro in ImageJ for what
appears a straight forward project, I'd suggest that you look at the
development of ImageJ2 which is theoretically being designed with use in
headless mode as a design goal.  It is far enough along that by the time
you get your Java and Image Processing skills developed it should be
released.  The URL:
http://developer.imagej.net/downloads

Hi,
I do that all the time using the Netbeans IDE for development
(netbeans.org, free download). You just need to add the main ImageJ jar
(ij.jar) and any plugins you want to use into the libraries directory of
your project. You can then develop anything you want using the graphical
designer for the user interface.

bye,
Rob

Thanks a lot Dr. Rob,

any idea where I can find tutorials, guide, etc, to learn the basics about it?

I appreciate your help.

One major goal of the ImageJ2 project (https://github.com/imagej/imagej) is
to make these sorts of use cases easier. It is still in beta, with more
functionality to be added, but the existing core API has become reasonably
stable.

For ImageJ1:
- http://imagej.nih.gov/ij/developer/index.html

For ImageJ2:
- https://github.com/imagej/imagej-tutorials
- http://developer.imagej.net/development

Much more to be added as the project continues!

Regards,
Curtis

One of the best things I found in terms of self-contained little
programs were the imglib2 tutorials.

http://fiji.sc/wiki/index.php/ImgLib2_Examples

These are some nice self contained examples that go through opening
image data, writing generic algorithms, applying filters, etc.

Hi Victor,
I found this book http://www.imagingbook.com/ very helpful to get me
going. Lots of examples of code and a good description of image analysis
basics, al using ImageJ. The image J devloper resources page
(http://rsbweb.nih.gov/ij/developer/index.html) also has a lot of good
information plus access to API and source code.
bye,
Rob
