Team Explorer Everywhere Command-Line - Minimum requirements

Question

On a machine that contains Visual Studio 2010 installed (along with the Visual Studio Command Prompt + Team Foundation Client), I have developed a small bat file that contains TF commands in it.

Now I need to move it to our Windows Server 2012 and there is no Visual Studio installed in there. So I found this nice package: https://github.com/Microsoft/team-explorer-everywhere

Out of it, I would like to make use of the "Command-Line Client" only. I have downloaded its package but I realized that, in order to make it work nicely, I suspect that I may need to install a few other components, such as Java.

It isn't clear what exactly are these components. Does anyone have a clue?
