An application proving an graphical node-based user interface for creating ImageJ workflows, for Macro creation and image editing in general.
It provides you with the means to create macros by connecting nodes to form a workflow, which represents the way macro-commands are called by ImageJ. These workflows can be saved and loaded.
A workflow consists of Sources, which load or create images. They will be connected to other units to define the order of processing. A workflow requires at least one node to be defined as a display. The result of this unit will be opened after running the workflow.
ImageFlow is also available as a stand-alone program that uses ImageJ as a library. To run it, download and extract the archive Imageflow.zip and double click on the ImageFlow_.jar. Works on all platforms, Java 5.0 or later must be installed.
A number of unit-elements for building graphs are included, however the list is not very long yet. Documentation on how to create own units is included and can be used. I can incorporate more units in later releases. Feedback of any kind is well appreciated.
Delete the previous version, download Imageflow-binaries and extract somewhere on your hard drive. Start the jar to run the program.
To start Imageflow from ImageJ you have to move "ImageFlow"-folder into ImageJ's plugin directory. After restarting ImageJ you will find a menu-item in the Plugins-Menu to start the plugin.
Checkout the source code from github. The current stable version is on the Master-Branch, the latest Version is on the Development-Branch. Compile the sources to executable jars by running the build-script.
$ ant build
The resulting build will be in "dist/release/", there are two differen jar variants:
- in
executableis the Standalone executable Jar - in
pluginis the All-In-One ImageJ Plugin Jar
Both can be used as ImageJ plugins, the latter is more compact.
I welcome any feedback: ideas, use cases, bugs as well as code contribution. Just fork and play around.
