ComfyUI Node: Load V-Kps Path

Load V-Kps Path:

The Load_Kps_Path node is designed to facilitate the loading of keypoint (KPS) paths from a specified directory. This node is particularly useful for AI artists working with keypoint data, as it simplifies the process of selecting and loading the appropriate keypoint files for further processing. By automating the retrieval of keypoint paths, this node helps streamline workflows, ensuring that you can quickly and efficiently access the necessary data without manually navigating through directories. The primary function of this node is to list all available keypoint files with a .pth extension in a predefined input directory and allow you to select one for loading. This can be especially beneficial in scenarios where you need to work with multiple keypoint files and want to ensure consistency and accuracy in your data handling.

Load V-Kps Path Input Parameters:

kps_path

The kps_path parameter allows you to select a keypoint file from a list of available .pth files in the specified input directory. This parameter is crucial as it determines which keypoint data will be loaded and used in subsequent processes. The list of files is dynamically generated based on the contents of the input directory, ensuring that you always have access to the most up-to-date files. There are no minimum or maximum values for this parameter, as it is a selection from a list. The default value is an empty list if no .pth files are found in the directory.

Load V-Kps Path Output Parameters:

VKPS_PATH

The VKPS_PATH output parameter provides the full path to the selected keypoint file. This output is essential as it serves as the reference to the keypoint data that will be used in further processing steps. By providing the complete path, this output ensures that subsequent nodes or functions can accurately locate and utilize the keypoint file without any ambiguity. The value of this parameter is a string representing the file path.

Load V-Kps Path Usage Tips:

• Ensure that your input directory contains the necessary .pth files before using this node to avoid an empty file list.
• Use descriptive and consistent naming conventions for your keypoint files to make it easier to identify and select the correct file from the list.
• Combine this node with other nodes that process keypoint data to create a seamless workflow for handling and analyzing keypoints.

Load V-Kps Path Common Errors and Solutions:

No .pth files found in the directory

• Explanation: This error occurs when the input directory does not contain any files with a .pth extension.
• Solution: Verify that the input directory is correctly specified and contains the necessary .pth files. Add the required files to the directory if they are missing.

Selected file path is invalid

• Explanation: This error occurs when the selected keypoint file path is not valid or accessible.
• Solution: Ensure that the selected file has not been moved or deleted from the input directory. Check the file permissions to make sure it is accessible.

Directory not found

• Explanation: This error occurs when the specified input directory does not exist.
• Solution: Verify that the input directory path is correct and that the directory exists. Create the directory if it is missing.
