Minimal OMERO client

Minimal Maven project for connecting to OMERO using the Java gateway based on https://github.com/imagej/minimal-ij1-plugin. Thanks to @dscho and @ctrueden for the original example.

Build

Install Gradle, and build this project:

gradle build

Run from source

gradle run --args="--omero.host=localhost --omero.user=USERNAME --omero.pass=PASSWORD"

Install

cd build/distributions
unzip minimal-omero-client-5.5.x.zip

Run

./minimal-omero-client-5.5.x/bin/minimal-omero-client --omero.host=localhost --omero.user=USERNAME --omero.pass=PASSWORD

You can pass additional properties, e.g. to debug SSL issues pass --IceSSL.Trace.Security=1.

Using development CI libraries

You can build against a development version of a library from the OME CI systems

Make the following change to build.gradle, changing version to the CI version:

diff --git a/build.gradle b/build.gradle

gradle build should pull in the new library.
