Presentation

Cytomine-java-client is an opensource Cytomine client. It is a JAR file that you can import in your JVM application (Java, Groovy, …). You will be able to manage data in a Cytomine instance according to your credentials: manage users, add annotations, upload images,...

How to build the Java-client

On the project root directory, run this command:

mvn package

This will build the client and produce two jars in the target directory.

How to import the Java-client

Version higher than 2.2.13 are available in the Maven central repository.

Maven

<dependency>
    <groupId>be.cytomine.client</groupId>
    <artifactId>cytomine-java-client</artifactId>
    <version>2.2.13</version>
</dependency>

Gradle

implementation group: 'be.cytomine.client', name: 'cytomine-java-client', version: '2.2.13'

Groovy with Grape

import be.cytomine.client.models.Ontology

@Grab('be.cytomine.client:cytomine-java-client:2.2.13')

Ontology ontology = new Ontology();
...

How to use the Java-client

You need 3 paramters:

CYTOMINE_URL: The full URL of the Cytomine core (“http://...cytomine.be”).
PUBLIC_KEY: Your cytomine public key.
PRIVATE_KEY: Your cytomine private key.

You first need to init the connection object:

Cytomine cytomine = new Cytomine(CYTOMINE_URL, PUBLIC_KEY, PRIVATE_KEY);

Here is a sample code that should print “Hello ” with your Cytomine username and print the list of projects available.

import be.cytomine.client.*
import be.cytomine.client.models.*
import be.cytomine.client.collections.*

Cytomine cytomine = new Cytomine(CYTOMINE_URL, PUBLIC_KEY, PRIVATE_KEY);
System.out.println("Hello " + cytomine.getCurrentUser().get("username"));
System.out.println("******* You have access to these projects: *******");
ProjectCollection projects = cytomine.getProjects();
for(int i=0;i<projects.size();i++) {
    Project project = projects.get(i);
    System.out.println(project.get("name"));
}
