ComfyUI Extension: ComfyUI-send-Eagle(slim)

ComfyUI-send-eagle-slim Introduction

ComfyUI-send-eagle-slim is an extension designed for ComfyUI, a powerful and modular interface for creating advanced stable diffusion pipelines. This extension allows you to seamlessly transfer generated images to Eagle, a digital asset management tool, in the webp format. By focusing on essential functionalities, this extension streamlines the process of integrating ComfyUI with Eagle, making it easier for AI artists to manage and organize their creative outputs. Whether you're looking to maintain high-quality image compression or need a reliable way to archive your work, ComfyUI-send-eagle-slim offers a practical solution.

How ComfyUI-send-eagle-slim Works

At its core, ComfyUI-send-eagle-slim operates by taking images generated within ComfyUI and converting them into the webp format, which is then sent to a locally running instance of Eagle. The webp format is chosen for its efficient compression capabilities, offering both lossy and lossless options to suit different quality needs. The extension automatically organizes these images into a structured directory format based on the date, ensuring that your work is neatly archived and easy to retrieve. Additionally, it embeds metadata into the images, allowing you to recreate the original workflow in ComfyUI by simply dragging the image back into the interface.

ComfyUI-send-eagle-slim Features

• Image Transfer: Automatically sends images to Eagle in webp format, supporting both lossy and lossless compression.
• Directory Organization: Creates a date-based subfolder in the ComfyUI output directory for organized storage.
• Metadata Embedding: Embeds workflow metadata into the image's exif information, enabling workflow recreation in ComfyUI.
• Annotation and Tagging: Analyzes prompts and other generation data to annotate images in Eagle and register tags for easy searching and categorization.

ComfyUI-send-eagle-slim Models

ComfyUI-send-eagle-slim does not directly involve different models but interacts with various nodes within ComfyUI. It supports standard nodes like KSampler, KSamplerAdvanced, and Empty Latent Image, as well as extensions like ComfyUI-SDXL-EmptyLatentImage. These nodes are crucial for defining the image generation process, and the extension ensures that relevant data from these nodes is captured and transferred to Eagle.
