ComfyUI Node: LogicUtil_SleepNode

LogicUtil_SleepNode:

The LogicUtil_SleepNodeAny node is designed to introduce a delay or pause in the execution of your workflow. This can be particularly useful in scenarios where you need to wait for a certain period before proceeding with the next steps, such as waiting for an external process to complete or simply adding a delay for timing purposes. The node leverages the time.sleep function to achieve this delay, ensuring that the specified interval is respected before passing the input data to the next node. This functionality can help in synchronizing processes and managing the flow of operations in your AI art projects.

LogicUtil_SleepNode Input Parameters:

interval

The interval parameter specifies the duration of the delay in seconds. This is a required parameter and must be provided for the node to function correctly. The value should be a floating-point number, allowing for precise control over the delay duration. For example, an interval of 2.5 will introduce a 2.5-second pause. The default value is 0.0, which means no delay if not specified. Adjusting this parameter can help manage the timing of your workflow effectively.

inputs

The inputs parameter is optional and can accept any type of data. This parameter allows you to pass through the data that you want to delay. The node will return this data unchanged after the specified interval. This can be useful for maintaining the flow of data through your workflow while introducing necessary pauses. The default value is 0.0, but it can be any type of data depending on your specific use case.

LogicUtil_SleepNode Output Parameters:

anytype

The output of the LogicUtil_SleepNodeAny node is the same data that was passed in through the inputs parameter. This ensures that the data flow is maintained while introducing the specified delay. The type of the output will match the type of the input data, making this node versatile and adaptable to various data types used in your workflow.

LogicUtil_SleepNode Usage Tips:

• Use the interval parameter to control the timing of your workflow, especially when waiting for external processes or synchronizing tasks.
• The inputs parameter can be any type of data, allowing you to pass through images, text, or other data types while introducing a delay.
• Consider using this node in combination with other nodes that require precise timing or synchronization to enhance the overall efficiency of your workflow.

LogicUtil_SleepNode Common Errors and Solutions:

Invalid interval value

• Explanation: The interval parameter must be a floating-point number. If an invalid value is provided, the node may not function correctly.
• Solution: Ensure that the interval parameter is set to a valid floating-point number. For example, use 2.5 for a 2.5-second delay.

Missing required parameter: interval

• Explanation: The interval parameter is required for the node to function. If it is not provided, the node will not execute the delay.
• Solution: Make sure to specify the interval parameter with a valid floating-point number to introduce the desired delay.

Unexpected input type for inputs parameter

• Explanation: The inputs parameter can accept any type of data, but if an unexpected type is provided, it may cause issues in the workflow.
• Solution: Verify that the data passed through the inputs parameter is of the expected type and format. Adjust the input data as necessary to ensure compatibility.
