Initiates segmented workflow processes for task distribution and management.
The SectionStart
node is designed to initiate a segmented process within a workflow, particularly useful in scenarios where tasks need to be distributed or managed in sections. This node serves as a starting point for a section, allowing you to define and manage the beginning of a segmented task. It is particularly beneficial in distributed systems or workflows where tasks are divided into sections for better load management and efficiency. By using SectionStart
, you can ensure that each section of your workflow is properly initialized and ready to execute its designated tasks. This node is part of the "lam" category, indicating its role in managing segmented or layered processes.
The server
parameter allows you to specify the server or channel where the section will be initiated. It is crucial for directing the section to the appropriate server, ensuring that the tasks are executed in the correct environment. The default option is default
, but additional servers can be specified if they are available. This parameter impacts the node's execution by determining the server context for the section, which can affect performance and resource allocation.
The images
parameter is optional and allows you to input images that may be used or processed within the section. This can be useful if the section involves image processing tasks. The presence of images can influence the node's execution by adding image-related operations to the workflow.
The sectype
parameter is a hidden integer that defines the type of section being initiated. Although not directly visible to users, it plays a role in determining the specific behavior or configuration of the section. The default value is 0, but it can be adjusted internally to suit different section types.
The data
parameter is a hidden string that can be used to pass additional data or configuration settings to the section. This allows for more customized and flexible section management, although it is not directly visible to users.
The unique_id
parameter is a hidden identifier that ensures each section has a unique reference. This is important for tracking and managing sections within a larger workflow, preventing conflicts or overlaps.
The SECTION
output represents the initialized section, ready for execution. It is a crucial output that signifies the successful start of a section, allowing subsequent nodes to recognize and interact with this section as part of the workflow.
The IMAGE
output provides any images that were processed or passed through the section. This output is important for workflows that involve image manipulation or analysis, as it allows for the continuation of image-related tasks in subsequent nodes.
