ComfyUI Extension: SDXL Prompt Styler

SDXL Prompt Styler Introduction

The sdxl_prompt_styler is a powerful extension designed for AI artists using ComfyUI. This extension allows you to style your prompts based on predefined templates stored in multiple JSON files. By using this tool, you can easily enhance your prompts with specific styles, making your AI-generated art more detailed and professional.

Key Features:

• Template-Based Styling: Replace a {prompt} placeholder in the template with your provided positive text.
• Negative Prompt Management: Combine your negative text with the template's negative_prompt field or use the default from the template.
• Flexibility: Create a diverse range of prompts by mixing and matching positive and negative text with different templates. This extension is particularly useful for AI artists who want to streamline their workflow and produce high-quality, stylistically consistent outputs without manually crafting each prompt.

How SDXL Prompt Styler Works

The sdxl_prompt_styler operates by using templates defined in JSON files. Each template contains a prompt field with a {prompt} placeholder and an optional negative_prompt field. When you input your positive and negative text, the extension replaces the {prompt} placeholder with your positive text and combines the negative text with the template's negative_prompt.

Example:

1. Template in JSON:

{
  "name": "sai-enhance",
  "prompt": "breathtaking {prompt} . award-winning, professional, highly detailed",
  "negative_prompt": "ugly, deformed, noisy, blurry, distorted, grainy"
}

2. Your Input:

• Positive Text: "a futuristic pop up tent in a forest"
• Negative Text: "dark"

3. Output:

• Positive Styled Prompt: "breathtaking a futuristic pop up tent in a forest . award-winning, professional, highly detailed"
• Negative Styled Prompt: "ugly, deformed, noisy, blurry, distorted, grainy, dark" This process allows you to quickly generate complex and nuanced prompts that can significantly enhance the quality of your AI-generated art.
