Note This repository was for development of the WebServer feature for 3D Slicer. The feature has been merged into the main repository and is being further developed there.

Slicer modules that support web services and web applications.

(Still a work in progress, but starting to be useable)

This module can now be run from any slicer 4.2 binary download (release or nightly).

Simply run slicer with these arguments:

./path/to/Slicer --additional-module-paths path/to/SlicerWeb/WebServer

where 'path/to' is replaced with the appropriate paths. You could alternatively register the path/to/SlicerWeb/WebServer in the Module paths of the Application Settings dialog.

Go to the Servers->WebServer module and the server will start.

Access http://localhost:8080 with a web browser.

NOTE: after you select a demo, use the Reload button to trigger it.

NOTE: some demos require a WebGL compatible browser.

Direct API access:

• get a json dump of the names of all nodes in mrml:

http://localhost:8080/slicer/mrml

• get a png image of the threeD View

http://localhost:8080/slicer/threeD

• get a png image of the yellow slice view

http://localhost:8080/slicer/slice?view=yellow

Can now access image data in nrrd format!

curl -v http://localhost:8070/slicer/volume\&id='MRHead' -o /tmp/local.nrrd
