ComfyUI-N-Sidebar

A simple sidebar for ComfyUI. For what i know nobody did it, so i did it. Maybe you don't need it. I need it >.<

Updates

• 08-09-2024

  • Custom shortcuts!

• 04-09-2024

  • Changed the resize system of the n-sidebar (it can now be resized directly from its sides NOTE: the top side wilL only move the bar)
  • Added the ability to directly download CIVITAI models into chosen folders (this includes Checkpoint, Textual Inversion, Hypernetwork, Aesthetic Gradient, LORA, LoCon, DoRA, Controlnet, Upscaler, Motion Module, VAE, Poses, Wildcards, Workflows). More Info.
  • Added the ability to import/export your settings.
  • EXPERIMENTAL: You can now embed ComfyUI's native bar within the n-sidebar
  • EXPERIMENTAL: Added a small console (useful if you don’t have direct access to the machine). If you want to remove this feature, simply delete the terminal folder within ComfyUI-N-Sidebar/app/panels
  • EXPERIMENTAL: Added the ability to edit the layout of the bar, this functionality is highly unstable and its use may lead to unexpected behaviors
  • Redesigned configuration menu
  • Fixed some bugs

• 01-08-2024

  • A lot of people are having trouble with the CSS class change in the last update because of a browser cache issue: the old CSS file keeps loading from disk instead of the new one with the latest changes (thanks, modern browsers!). To fix this, I've changed the name of the CSS file, which SHOULD force browsers to load the new one. If this doesn't fix the issue, I'm not sure what will 😭.
  • Added the new option Show at Startup in the settings. This lets you have the sidebar open at startup (if it's not in fixed mode).
  • Changed the refresh icon so that it displays correctly in Chromium browsers on macOS.
  • Minor change to the CSS

• 30-07-2024

  • Changed the name of the sidebar class to prevent a conflict with the comfyui-search-navigation node.

NOTE: If you had some custom categories in the workflow panel, at the first start they will be migrated to the new system (since I did a full rewrite to support the folders). It is possible that you need to refresh the page more than once to see them again. Also, a backup of the settings.json will be created before the migration in case anything goes wrong.

NOTE2: I hope I did not break anything T_T

ASSETS DOWNLOADER

This new panel allows you to download CIVITAI models (Checkpoint, TextualInversion, Hypernetwork, AestheticGradient, LORA, LoCon, DoRA, Controlnet, Upscaler, MotionModule, VAE, Poses, Wildcards, Workflows).
The various models will be downloaded into the folders set in the settings.
There is also the option to rebuild the "My Library" section (the dots at the top right corner):
once the reference folders are set in the settings, by launching the rebuild, the already existing models will be identified and added to the library (if they exist in the CivitAI database).

NOTE: you can set your own API key for models that are not publicly available.

Todo:

• Reordering pinned nodes
• Node preview (i don't think it will be an image)
• Color integration with Jovimetrix
• Better search
• Custom Categories!!
• Workflows
• Templates
• Export and Import Settings
• Custom Shortcuts
• Touch Support

Known Issues:

• After you drag a template onto the workflow, if you drag any other file from your PC that does not include a workflow, it will paste the last template you dragged again.
