Command Line Options

Most of the options supported by ComfyUI are supported.

They can be specified when starting manually:

python3 -m visionatrix run --ui --use-split-cross-attention --disable-smart-memory

Here are the list of the supported command line options related to Visionatrix for run command:

--backend_dir BACKEND_DIR

Directory for the backend(folder with ComfyUI)

Default: vix_backend

--flows_dir FLOWS_DIR

Directory for the flows

Default: vix_flows

--models_dir MODELS_DIR

Directory for the models

Default: `vix_models

--tasks_files_dir TASKS_FILES_DIR

Directory for input/output files

Default: vix_task_files

--host HOST

Host to be used by Visionatrix

--port PORT

Port to be used by Visionatrix

--ui

Flag to enable User interface(JS frontend).

Supported ComfyUI options

--cuda-device DEVICE_ID

Set the id of the cuda device this instance will use.

--cuda-malloc

Enable cudaMallocAsync (enabled by default for torch 2.0 and up).

--disable-cuda-malloc

Disable cudaMallocAsync.

--force-fp32

Force fp32 (If this makes your GPU work better please report it).

--force-fp16

Force fp16.

--bf16-unet

Run the UNET in bf16. This should only be used for testing stuff.

--fp16-unet

Store unet weights in fp16.

--fp8_e4m3fn-unet

Store unet weights in fp8_e4m3fn.

--fp8_e5m2-unet

Store unet weights in fp8_e5m2.

--fp16-vae

Run the VAE in fp16, might cause black images.

--fp32-vae

Run the VAE in full precision fp32.

--bf16-vae

Run the VAE in bf16.

--cpu-vae

Run the VAE on the CPU.

--fp8_e4m3fn-text-enc

Store text encoder weights in fp8 (e4m3fn variant).

--fp8_e5m2-text-enc

Store text encoder weights in fp8 (e5m2 variant).

--fp16-text-enc

Store text encoder weights in fp16.

--fp32-text-enc

Store text encoder weights in fp32.

--disable-ipex-optimize

Disables ipex.optimize when loading models with Intel GPUs.

--use-split-cross-attention

Use the split cross attention optimization. Ignored when xformers is used.

--use-quad-cross-attention

Use the sub-quadratic cross attention optimization. Ignored when xformers is used.

--use-pytorch-cross-attention

Use the new pytorch 2.0 cross attention function.

--disable-xformers

Disable xformers.

--force-upcast-attention

Force enable attention upcasting, please report if it fixes black images.

--dont-upcast-attention

Disable all upcasting of attention. Should be unnecessary except for debugging.

--gpu-only

Store and run everything (text encoders/CLIP models, etc… on the GPU).

--highvram

By default models will be unloaded to CPU memory after being used. This option keeps them in GPU memory.

--normalvram

Used to force normal vram use if lowvram gets automatically enabled.

--lowvram

Split the unet in parts to use less vram.

--novram

When lowvram isn’t enough.

--cpu

To use the CPU for everything (slow).

--disable-smart-memory

Force ComfyUI to aggressively offload to regular ram instead of keeping models in vram when it can.

Additional commands

install-flow

Can be used for Workers that do not have a user interface.

python3 -m visionatrix install-flow --directory path_to_folder

Folder should contain flow.json and flow_comfy.json

python3 -m visionatrix install-flow --name photo_stickers

This will install flow by it’s ID which is equal to it’s folder name here
