ComfyUI-to-Python-Extension

banner

The ComfyUI-to-Python-Extension is a powerful tool that translates ComfyUI workflows into executable Python code. Designed to bridge the gap between ComfyUI's visual interface and Python's programming environment, this script facilitates the seamless transition from design to code execution. Whether you're a data scientist, a software developer, or an AI enthusiast, this tool streamlines the process of implementing ComfyUI workflows in Python.

Potential Use Cases

  • Streamlining the process for creating a lean app or pipeline deployment that uses a ComfyUI workflow
  • Creating programmatic experiments for various prompt/parameter values
  • Creating large queues for image generation (For example, you could adjust the script to generate 1000 images without clicking ctrl+enter 1000 times)
  • Easily expanding or iterating on your architecture in Python once a foundational workflow is in place in the GUI

V1.3.0 Release Notes

  • Generate .py file directly from the ComfyUI Web App

Save As Script

V1.2.1 Release Notes

  • Dynamically change comfyui_to_python.py parameters with CLI arguments
  • Hotfix to handle nodes that accept kwargs.

V1.2.0 Release Notes

  • Updates to adhere to latest changes from ComfyUI

V1.0.0 Release Notes

  • Use all the custom nodes!
    • Custom nodes are now supported. If you run into any issues with code execution, first ensure that the each node works as expected in the GUI. If it works in the GUI, but not in the generated script, please submit an issue.

Installation

  1. Navigate to your ComfyUI/custom_nodes directory

  2. Clone this repo

    git clone https://github.com/pydn/ComfyUI-to-Python-Extension.git

    After cloning the repo, your ComfyUI directory should look like this:

    /comfy
/comfy_extras
/custom_nodes
--/ComfyUI-to-Python-Extension
/input
/models
/output
/script_examples
/web
.gitignore

nodes.py
requirements.txt
server.py

Web App Use

  1. Launch ComfyUI

  2. Load your favorite workflow and click Save As Script

Save As Script

  1. Type your desired file name into the pop up screen.

  2. Move .py file from your downloads folder to your ComfyUI directory.

  3. Now you can execute the newly created .py file to generate images without launching a server.

CLI Usage

  1. Navigate to the ComfyUI-to-Python-Extension folder and install requirements

    pip install -r requirements.txt

  2. Launch ComfyUI, click the gear icon over Queue Prompt, then check Enable Dev mode Options. THE SCRIPT WILL NOT WORK IF YOU DO NOT ENABLE THIS OPTION!

Enable Dev Mode Options

  1. Load up your favorite workflows, then click the newly enabled Save (API Format) button under Queue Prompt

  2. Move the downloaded .json workflow file to your ComfyUI/ComfyUI-to-Python-Extension folder

  3. If needed, add arguments when executing comfyui_to_python.py to update the default input_file and output_file to match your .json workflow file and desired .py file name. By default, the script will look for a file called workflow_api.json. You can also update the queue_size variable to your desired number of images that you want to generate in a single script execution. By default, the scripts will generate 10 images. Run python comfyui_to_python.py --help for more details.

6a. Run the script with default arguments:

python comfyui_to_python.py

6b. Run the script with optional arguments:

python comfyui_to_python.py --input_file "workflow_api (2).json" --output_file my_workflow.py --queue_size 100

  1. After running comfyui_to_python.py, a new .py file will be created in the current working directory. If you made no changes, look for workflow_api.py.

  2. Now you can execute the newly created .py file to generate images without launching a server.
