ComfyUI Node: Image Send HTTP

Image Send HTTP:

The Image Send HTTP node is designed to facilitate the transmission of images over HTTP, making it an essential tool for AI artists who need to share their generated images with web services or other online platforms. This node allows you to send one or multiple images to a specified URL using HTTP methods such as POST. By converting images to a suitable format and packaging them into an HTTP request, this node simplifies the process of integrating image data into web-based workflows. Whether you are uploading images to a server for further processing, sharing them on social media, or integrating them into a web application, the Image Send HTTP node provides a streamlined and efficient solution.

Image Send HTTP Input Parameters:

images

This parameter accepts a list of images that you want to send over HTTP. Each image in the list is processed and converted into a format suitable for HTTP transmission. The images should be in a tensor format, which will be converted to PNG before being sent. There is no strict limit on the number of images, but sending a large number of images may impact performance and network bandwidth.

url

The URL to which the images will be sent. This should be a valid web address where the server is configured to accept image uploads. The default value is "example.com", but you should replace this with the actual URL of your target server. Ensure that the URL is correct to avoid connection errors.

method_type

Specifies the HTTP method to be used for the request. The default method is "post", which is suitable for uploading data. You can also use other methods like "put" if required by your server. The method type should be in lowercase.

request_field_name

The name of the field in the HTTP request that will contain the image data. The default value is "image". This field name should match the expected field name on the server side to ensure proper handling of the uploaded images.

additional_request_headers

Optional parameter for specifying additional HTTP headers to include in the request. This can be useful for adding authentication tokens, content-type specifications, or other custom headers required by the server. If not provided, no additional headers will be included.

Image Send HTTP Output Parameters:

status_code

The HTTP status code returned by the server after the request is processed. This code indicates whether the request was successful (e.g., 200 for OK) or if there were any errors (e.g., 404 for Not Found, 500 for Internal Server Error). Understanding the status code helps in diagnosing issues with the request.

response_text

The text content of the server's response. This can include messages indicating the success or failure of the request, error details, or other information provided by the server. Analyzing the response text can provide insights into any issues that occurred and help in troubleshooting.

Image Send HTTP Usage Tips:

• Ensure that the URL parameter is correctly set to the target server's address to avoid connection errors.
• Use the additional_request_headers parameter to include necessary authentication tokens or custom headers required by the server.
• Test the node with a single image first to ensure that the server is correctly receiving and processing the image before sending multiple images.
• Check the status_code and response_text output parameters to verify the success of the request and diagnose any issues.

Image Send HTTP Common Errors and Solutions:

HTTP Error: (URL): 404 Client Error: Not Found

• Explanation: The server could not find the requested URL.
• Solution: Verify that the URL parameter is correct and that the server is configured to accept requests at that URL.

Connection Error: (URL): Failed to establish a new connection

• Explanation: The node could not connect to the server, possibly due to network issues or incorrect URL.
• Solution: Check your network connection and ensure that the URL is correct and the server is reachable.

Timeout Error: (URL): The request timed out

• Explanation: The request took too long to complete, possibly due to network latency or server issues.
• Solution: Try increasing the timeout setting on the server or check for network issues that may be causing delays.

Request Exception: (URL): An error occurred

• Explanation: A general error occurred during the request.
• Solution: Check the response_text output for more details on the error and ensure that all input parameters are correctly set.
