This project provides a comprehensive LoRA management extension for ComfyUI, designed to streamline the organization, previewing, downloading, and integration of LoRA models. It targets users of ComfyUI, particularly those working extensively with LoRA models for Stable Diffusion, offering significant workflow enhancements through features like recipe management, automatic path correction, and browser integration.

How It Works

The extension integrates directly into ComfyUI, providing a dedicated interface for managing LoRA models. Key features include direct downloading from Civitai with advanced path templating, automatic preview image fetching, and the ability to save and apply LoRA combinations as "recipes." It also introduces custom nodes like "Lora Loader (LoraManager)" that can automatically apply preset strengths and trigger words, simplifying the process of integrating LoRAs into ComfyUI workflows.

Quick Start & Requirements

• Installation: Recommended via ComfyUI Manager (search for lora-manager). Manual installation involves git clone and pip install -r requirements.txt. A standalone portable edition is also available.
• Prerequisites: ComfyUI, Python. A CivitAI API key is required for download functionality.
• Setup: Seamless integration with ComfyUI. Standalone mode requires configuring settings.json with model paths and API key.
• Docs: Tutorials and detailed information are linked within the README.

Highlighted Details

• Browser Extension: Companion extensions for Chrome and Firefox enhance Civitai browsing, showing local models and enabling one-click downloads.
• Workflow Integration: Features like "Copy LoRA syntax" and the "Lora Loader (LoraManager)" node allow for quick application of LoRAs with preset parameters.
• Advanced Management: Includes duplicate detection (hash verification), tag management, creator search, and bulk operations for models.
• Recipe System: Allows saving and sharing LoRA combinations and generation parameters for easy reuse.

Maintenance & Community

The project is under active development with frequent updates addressing bugs and adding features. Feedback and feature requests are encouraged via GitHub issues. A Discord community is available for support and discussions. Pull requests are temporarily not accepted due to ongoing refactoring.

Licensing & Compatibility

The repository does not explicitly state a license in the provided text. Compatibility with ComfyUI and certain custom nodes (e.g., ComfyUI-Custom-Scripts, efficiency-nodes-comfyui) is actively maintained.

Limitations & Caveats

The cache file functionality is temporarily disabled pending rework. Pull requests are not currently being accepted due to the project's early stage and ongoing refactoring, which may indicate a higher bus factor or potential for breaking changes as the architecture stabilizes.
