Wrap up PyImageJ customized plugins Informations:

[xp1632]

• [x] 2.3 - customized plugins

  • could only be defined in jar and add to classpath before imagej.init()
  • reference: https://github.com/imagej/pyimagej/blob/main/doc/Initialization.md#plugins-without-maven-endpoints
  • more specifically, we need to check the _set_ij_env function in PyimageJ/src/imagej/__init__.py

  def _set_ij_env(ij_dir):
  """
  Create a list of required jars and add to the java classpath.
  
  :param ij_dir: System path for Fiji.app.
  :return: num_jar(int): Number of jars added.
  """
  jars = []
  # search jars directory
  jars.extend(find_jars(ij_dir + "/jars"))
  # search plugins directory
  jars.extend(find_jars(ij_dir + "/plugins"))
  # add to classpath
  sj.config.add_classpath(os.pathsep.join(jars))
  return len(jars)

  • The add_classpath function is where we add jars to current classpath

We don't consider doing customized plugin for now, I'll leave the information here in case we need it in the future
