Note
This documentation is for the new OMERO 5.3 version. See the latest OMERO 5.2.x version or the previous versions page to find documentation for the OMERO version you are using if you have not upgraded yet.
Using the Ice Java language mapping from ZeroC, OMERO provides access to your data within an OMERO.blitz server from Java code.
To make use of the OMERO Java API and interact with OMERO.blitz from your code, a client application needs the Java bindings available on the classpath.
The required .jar files can be obtained in a number of ways:
To access all the functionality available in omero_client.jar or to use the importer, you will need more jar files. To see all the current requirements, take a look at the builds on jenkins, or alternatively examine the dependencies in the ivy.xml files (e.g. components/insight/ivy.xml)
The Java Gateway is a wrapper around the Ice Java language mapping and the OMERO Application Programming Interface which makes it easier to interact with an OMERO server in Java.
The Gateway is the central object for maintaining the connection to the server, see Connect to OMERO
Functionality for interacting with the server is encapsulated into different facilities. For an example using the BrowseFacility to access Projects, Datasets, etc. see Read data.
As the plain Ice objects can be a bit ‘bulky’ to handle, they are usually wrapped into Java DataObjects.
LoginCredentials cred = new LoginCredentials(userName, password, host, port);
// Alternative using args array:
// args = new String[] { "--omero.host=" + hostName, "--omero.port=" + port,
// "--omero.user=" + userName, "--omero.pass=" + password };
// LoginCredentials cred = new LoginCredentials(args);
// If you want to join an existing session you can use the session ID as
// user name and a 'null' password:
// LoginCredentials cred = new LoginCredentials(sessionID, null, host, port);
//Create a simple Logger object which just writes
//to System.out or System.err
Logger simpleLogger = new SimpleLogger();
Gateway gateway = new Gateway(simpleLogger);
ExperimenterData user = gateway.connect(cred);
//for every subsequent call to the server you'll need the
//SecurityContext for a certain group; in this case create
//a SecurityContext for the user's default group.
SecurityContext ctx = new SecurityContext(user.getGroupId());
gateway.disconnect();
The BrowseFacility offers methods for browsing within the data hierarchy. A list of examples follows, indicating how to load Project, Dataset, Screen, etc.
If a Project contains Datasets, the Datasets will automatically be loaded.
BrowseFacility browse = gateway.getFacility(BrowseFacility.class);
Collection<ProjectData> projects = browse.getProjects(ctx);
Iterator<ProjectData> i = projects.iterator();
ProjectData project;
Set<DatasetData> datasets;
Iterator<DatasetData> j;
DatasetData dataset;
while (i.hasNext()) {
project = i.next();
String name = projet.getName();
long id = project.getId();
datasets = project.getDatasets();
j = datasets.iterator();
while (j.hasNext()) {
dataset = j.next();
// Do something here
// If images loaded.
// dataset.getImages();
}
}
BrowseFacility browse = gateway.getFacility(BrowseFacility.class);
Collection<DatasetData> datasets = browse.getDatasets(ctx);
Iterator<DatasetData> i = datasets.iterator();
DatasetData dataset;
Set<ImageData> images;
Iterator<ImageData> j;
ImageData image;
while (i.hasNext()) {
dataset = i.next();
images = dataset.getImages();
j = images.iterator();
while (j.hasNext()) {
image = j.next();
//Do something
}
}
BrowseFacility browse = gateway.getFacility(BrowseFacility.class);
Collection<ImageData> images = browse.getImagesForDatasets(ctx, Arrays.asList(datasetId));
Iterator<ImageData> j = images.iterator();
ImageData image;
while (j.hasNext()) {
image = j.next();
// Do something
}
BrowseFacility browse = gateway.getFacility(BrowseFacility.class);
ImageData image = browse.getImage(ctx, imageId);
The model is as follows: Image-Pixels i.e. to access valuable data about the image you need to use the pixels object. We now only support one set of pixels per image (it used to be more!).
PixelsData pixels = image.getDefaultPixels();
int sizeZ = pixels.getSizeZ(); // The number of z-sections.
int sizeT = pixels.getSizeT(); // The number of timepoints.
int sizeC = pixels.getSizeC(); // The number of channels.
int sizeX = pixels.getSizeX(); // The number of pixels along the X-axis.
int sizeY = pixels.getSizeY(); // The number of pixels along the Y-axis.
Note that the wells are not loaded.
BrowseFacility browse = gateway.getFacility(BrowseFacility.class);
Collection<ScreenData> screens = browse.getScreens(ctx);
Iterator<ScreenData> i = screens.iterator();
ScreenData screen;
Set<PlateData> plates;
Iterator<PlateData> j;
PlateData plate;
while (i.hasNext()) {
screen = i.next();
plates = screen.getPlates();
j = plates.iterator();
while (j.hasNext()) {
plate = j.next();
}
}
Given a plate ID, load the wells.
BrowseFacility browse = gateway.getFacility(BrowseFacility.class);
Collection<WellData> wells = browse.getWells(ctx, plateId);
Iterator<WellData> i = wells.iterator();
WellData well;
while (i.hasNext()) {
well = i.next();
//Do something
}
This is useful when you need for example the pixels intensity.
RawDataFacility rdf = gateway.getFacility(RawDataFacility.class);
PixelsData pixels = image.getDefaultPixels();
int sizeZ = pixels.getSizeZ();
int sizeT = pixels.getSizeT();
int sizeC = pixels.getSizeC();
Plane2D p;
for (int z = 0; z < sizeZ; z++)
for (int t = 0; t < sizeT; t++)
for (int c = 0; c < sizeC; c++) {
p = rdf.getPlane(ctx, pixels, z, t, c);
}
RawDataFacility rdf = gateway.getFacility(RawDataFacility.class);
PixelsData pixels = image.getDefaultPixels();
int sizeZ = pixels.getSizeZ();
int sizeT = pixels.getSizeT();
int sizeC = pixels.getSizeC();
int x = 0;
int y = 0;
int width = pixels.getSizeX()/2;
int height = pixels.getSizeY()/2;
Plane2D p;
for (int z = 0; z < sizeZ; z++) {
for (int t = 0; t < sizeT; t++) {
for (int c = 0; c < sizeC; c++) {
p = rdf.getTile(ctx, pixels, z, t, c, x, y, width, height);
}
}
}
This is useful when you need the pixels intensity.
PixelsData pixels = image.getDefaultPixels();
int sizeT = pixels.getSizeT();
int sizeC = pixels.getSizeC();

store.setPixelsId(pixelsId, false);
for (int t = 0; t < sizeT; t++) {
for (int c = 0; c < sizeC; c++) {
byte[] plane = store.getStack(c, t);
//Do something
}
}
} finally {
store.close();

To attach a file to an object e.g. an image, few objects need to be created:

//Now we save the originalFile object

In the following example, we create a table with 2 columns.
TableDataColumn[] columns = new TableDataColumn[3];
columns[0] = new TableDataColumn("ID", 0, Long.class);
columns[1] = new TableDataColumn("Name", 1, String.class);
columns[2] = new TableDataColumn("Value", 2, Double.class);
Object[][] data = new Object[3][5];
data[0] = new Long[] {1l, 2l, 3l, 4l, 5l};
data[1] = new String[] {"one", "two", "three", "four", "five"};
data[2] = new Double[] {1d, 2d, 3d, 4d, 5d};
TableData tableData = new TableData(columns, data);
TablesFacility fac = gateway.getFacility(TablesFacility.class);
// Attach the table to the image
tableData = fac.addTable(ctx, image, "My Data", tableData);
// Find the table again
Collection<FileAnnotationData> tables = fac.getAvailableTables(ctx, image);
long fileId = tables.iterator().next().getFileID();
// Request second and third column of the first three rows
TableData tableData2 = fac.getTable(ctx, fileId, 0, 2, 1, 2);
// do something, e.g. print to System.out

}
To learn about the model see the ROI Model documentation. Note that annotations can be linked to ROI or shape.
In this example, we create an ROI with a rectangular shape and attach it to an image.

//Add a mask

long pixelsId = pixels.getId();
RawPixelsStorePrx store = gateway.getPixelsStore(ctx);
try {

byte[] mask = store.getStack(0, 0);

}
//Create an ellipse.

//Not setting the Z and T for this shape object, this is also allowed in the model.
//set angle of rotation

//create transform object
AffineTransformI newTform = omero.model.AffineTransformI();
newTform.setA00(omero.rtypes.rdouble(cos(theta)));
newTform.setA10(omero.rypes.rdouble(-sin(theta)));

It is possible to delete Projects, datasets, images, ROIs etc. and objects linked to them depending on the specified options (see Deleting in OMERO).
In the following example, we create an image and delete it.
DataManagerFacility dm = gateway.getFacility(DataManagerFacility.class);
//First create an image.
ImageData image = new ImageData();
image.setName("image1");
image.setDescription("descriptionImage1");
IObject object = dm.saveAndReturnObject(ctx, image.asIObject());

PixelsData pixels = image.getDefaultPixels();
long pixelsId = pixels.getId();

ByteArrayInputStream stream = bull;
try {
proxy.lookupPixels(pixelsId);
if (!(proxy.lookupRenderingDef(pixelsId))) {
proxy.resetDefaultSettings(true);
proxy.lookupRenderingDef(pixelsId);
}
proxy.load();
//Now can interact with the rendering engine.
proxy.setActive(0, Boolean.valueOf(false));
PlaneDef pDef = new PlaneDef();
pDef.z = 0;
pDef.t = 0;
pDef.slice = omero.romio.XY.value;
//render the data uncompressed.
int[] uncompressed = proxy.renderAsPackedInt(pDef);
byte[] compressed = proxy.renderCompressed(pDef);
//Create a buffered image
stream = new ByteArrayInputStream(compressed);
BufferedImage image = ImageIO.read(stream);
} finally {
proxy.close();
if (stream != null) stream.close();
}
ThumbnailStorePrx store = gateway.getThumbnailService(ctx);
ByteArrayInputStream stream = null;
try {
PixelsData pixels = image.getDefaultPixels();
store.setPixelsId(pixels.getId())
//retrieve a 96x96 thumbnail.
byte[] array = store.getThumbnail(

stream = new ByteArrayInputStream(array);
//Create a buffered image to display
ImageIO.read(stream);
} finally {

}
The following example shows how to create an Image from an Image already in OMERO. Similar approach can be applied when uploading an image.
//See above how to load an image.

}
}
} finally {

}
}
if (type == null)
throw new Exception("Pixels Type not valid.");
//Create new image.

//Link the new image and the dataset hosting the source image.
DatasetImageLink link = new DatasetImageLinkI();
link.setParent(new DatasetI(datasetId, false));
link.setChild(new ImageI(newImage.getId(), false));
gateway.getUpdateService(ctx).saveAndReturnObject(link);
//Write the data.

}
}
//Save the data.
store.save();
} finally {
