Community Nodes

These are nodes that have been developed by the community, for the community. If you're not sure what a node is, you can learn more about nodes here.

If you'd like to submit a node for the community, please refer to the node creation overview.

To use a node, add the node to the nodes folder found in your InvokeAI install location.

The suggested method is to use git clone to clone the repository the node is found in. This allows for easy updates of the node in the future.

If you'd prefer, you can also just download the whole node folder from the linked repository and add it to the nodes folder.

To use a community workflow, download the .json node graph file and load it into Invoke AI via the Load Workflow button in the Workflow Editor.

Anamorphic Tools

Description: A set of nodes to perform anamorphic modifications to images, like lens blur, streaks, spherical distortion, and vignetting.

Node Link: https://github.com/JPPhoto/anamorphic-tools

Adapters Linked Nodes

Description: A set of nodes for linked adapters (ControlNet, IP-Adaptor & T2I-Adapter). This allows multiple adapters to be chained together without using a collect node which means it can be used inside an iterate node without any collecting on every iteration issues.

ControlNet-Linked - Collects ControlNet info to pass to other nodes.
IP-Adapter-Linked - Collects IP-Adapter info to pass to other nodes.
T2I-Adapter-Linked - Collects T2I-Adapter info to pass to other nodes.

Note: These are inherited from the core nodes so any update to the core nodes should be reflected in these.

Depth Map from Wavefront OBJ

Description: Render depth maps from Wavefront .obj files (triangulated) using this simple 3D renderer utilizing numpy and matplotlib to compute and color the scene. There are simple parameters to change the FOV, camera position, and model orientation.

To be imported, an .obj must use triangulated meshes, so make sure to enable that option if exporting from a 3D modeling program. This renderer makes each triangle a solid color based on its average depth, so it will cause anomalies if your .obj has large triangles. In Blender, the Remesh modifier can be helpful to subdivide a mesh into small pieces that work well given these limitations.

Node Link: https://github.com/dwringer/depth-from-obj-node

Example Usage: </br>

Enhance Detail

Description: A single node that can enhance the detail in an image. Increase or decrease details in an image using a guided filter (as opposed to the typical Gaussian blur used by most sharpening filters.) Based on the Enhance Detail ComfyUI node from https://github.com/spacepxl/ComfyUI-Image-Filters

Node Link: https://github.com/skunkworxdark/enhance-detail-node

Example Usage: </br>

Image and Mask Composition Pack

Description: This is a pack of nodes for composing masks and images, including a simple text mask creator and both image and latent offset nodes. The offsets wrap around, so these can be used in conjunction with the Seamless node to progressively generate centered on different parts of the seamless tiling.

This includes 15 Nodes:

Adjust Image Hue Plus - Rotate the hue of an image in one of several different color spaces.
Blend Latents/Noise (Masked) - Use a mask to blend part of one latents tensor [including Noise outputs] into another. Can be used to "renoise" sections during a multi-stage [masked] denoising process.
Enhance Image - Boost or reduce color saturation, contrast, brightness, sharpness, or invert colors of any image at any stage with this simple wrapper for pillow [PIL]'s ImageEnhance module.
Equivalent Achromatic Lightness - Calculates image lightness accounting for Helmholtz-Kohlrausch effect based on a method described by High, Green, and Nussbaum (2023).
Text to Mask (Clipseg) - Input a prompt and an image to generate a mask representing areas of the image matched by the prompt.
Text to Mask Advanced (Clipseg) - Output up to four prompt masks combined with logical "and", logical "or", or as separate channels of an RGBA image.
Image Layer Blend - Perform a layered blend of two images using alpha compositing. Opacity of top layer is selectable, with optional mask and several different blend modes/color spaces.
Image Compositor - Take a subject from an image with a flat backdrop and layer it on another image using a chroma key or flood select background removal.
Image Dilate or Erode - Dilate or expand a mask (or any image!). This is equivalent to an expand/contract operation.
Image Value Thresholds - Clip an image to pure black/white beyond specified thresholds.
Offset Latents - Offset a latents tensor in the vertical and/or horizontal dimensions, wrapping it around.
Offset Image - Offset an image in the vertical and/or horizontal dimensions, wrapping it around.
Rotate/Flip Image - Rotate an image in degrees clockwise/counterclockwise about its center, optionally resizing the image boundaries to fit, or flipping it about the vertical and/or horizontal axes.
Shadows/Highlights/Midtones - Extract three masks (with adjustable hard or soft thresholds) representing shadows, midtones, and highlights regions of an image.
Text Mask (simple 2D) - create and position a white on black (or black on white) line of text using any font locally available to Invoke.

Oobabooga

Description: asks a local LLM running in Oobabooga's Text-Generation-Webui to write a prompt based on the user input.

Link: https://github.com/sammyf/oobabooga-node

Example:

"describe a new mystical creature in its natural environment"

can return

"The mystical creature I am describing to you is called the "Glimmerwing". It is a majestic, iridescent being that inhabits the depths of the most enchanted forests and glimmering lakes. Its body is covered in shimmering scales that reflect every color of the rainbow, and it has delicate, translucent wings that sparkle like diamonds in the sunlight. The Glimmerwing's home is a crystal-clear lake, surrounded by towering trees with leaves that shimmer like jewels. In this serene environment, the Glimmerwing spends its days swimming gracefully through the water, chasing schools of glittering fish and playing with the gentle ripples of the lake's surface. As the sun sets, the Glimmerwing perches on a branch of one of the trees, spreading its wings to catch the last rays of light. The creature's scales glow softly, casting a rainbow of colors across the forest floor. The Glimmerwing sings a haunting melody, its voice echoing through the stillness of the night air. Its song is said to have the power to heal the sick and bring peace to troubled souls. Those who are lucky enough to hear the Glimmerwing's song are forever changed by its beauty and grace."

Requirement

a Text-Generation-Webui instance (might work remotely too, but I never tried it) and obviously InvokeAI 3.x

Note

This node works best with SDXL models, especially as the style can be described independently of the LLM's output.
