ComfyUI Node: 🌻 Text Saver

🌻 Text Saver:

The AD_TextSaver node is designed to facilitate the saving of text data into a file format, making it an essential utility for managing and organizing text outputs within the ComfyUI environment. This node automates the process of writing text to a file, ensuring that your data is stored efficiently and systematically. It provides a robust mechanism to handle file naming conventions, directory management, and text encoding, which are crucial for maintaining a structured workflow. By leveraging this node, you can easily save generated text outputs with customizable file names and locations, enhancing your ability to manage and retrieve text data effectively. The node's primary function is to streamline the text-saving process, reducing manual effort and minimizing errors associated with file handling.

🌻 Text Saver Input Parameters:

text

This parameter represents the actual text content that you wish to save to a file. It is a required input and must be provided for the node to function. The text can be any string data that you want to store, and it will be written to the specified file in the chosen directory.

directory

The directory parameter specifies the location where the text file will be saved. By default, it is set to ./ComfyUI/output, but you can customize it to any valid directory path. This parameter ensures that your text files are organized in a specific location, making them easy to locate and manage.

filename_prefix

This parameter allows you to define a prefix for the filename of the saved text file. The default value is ComfyUI, and it helps in categorizing or identifying files based on their purpose or origin. The prefix is combined with other filename components to create a unique and descriptive filename.

filename_delimiter

The filename_delimiter parameter is used to separate different components of the filename, such as the prefix and any numbering. The default delimiter is an underscore (_), which is commonly used for readability and consistency in filenames.

filename_number_padding

This parameter determines the number of digits used for numbering files, which is useful when saving multiple files with similar names. The default value is 4, meaning numbers will be padded with zeros to ensure a consistent filename length. The minimum value is 0, and the maximum is 9, allowing flexibility in numbering conventions.

file_extension

The file_extension parameter specifies the type of file to be saved, with the default being .txt. This allows you to define the format of the saved file, ensuring compatibility with various text editors and applications.

encoding

This parameter defines the character encoding used when writing the text to the file. The default encoding is utf-8, which supports a wide range of characters and is suitable for most text data. You can change this if your text requires a different encoding format.

🌻 Text Saver Output Parameters:

File_Path

The File_Path output parameter provides the full path to the saved text file. This output is crucial as it confirms the successful execution of the node and allows you to easily access the saved file. It serves as a reference for locating the file within your directory structure.

🌻 Text Saver Usage Tips:

• Ensure that the directory path specified is valid and accessible to avoid errors during file saving.
• Use descriptive filename prefixes to categorize files effectively, making it easier to identify their content or purpose later.
• Adjust the filename_number_padding to suit your needs, especially if you anticipate saving multiple files with similar names.

🌻 Text Saver Common Errors and Solutions:

Error saving file <file_path>: <error_message>

• Explanation: This error occurs when there is an issue with writing the file to the specified directory. It could be due to permission issues, an invalid directory path, or insufficient disk space.
• Solution: Verify that the directory path is correct and that you have the necessary permissions to write to it. Ensure there is enough disk space available and that the directory exists or can be created.
