## **Interactive Command Line Interface**

The `invoke.py` script, located in `scripts/`, provides an interactive
interface to image generation similar to the "invoke mothership" bot that Stable
AI provided on its Discord server.

Unlike the `txt2img.py` and `img2img.py` scripts provided in the original
[CompVis/stable-diffusion](https://github.com/CompVis/stable-diffusion) source
code repository, the time-consuming initialization of the AI model
initialization only happens once. After that image generation from the
command-line interface is very fast.

The script uses the readline library to allow for in-line editing, command
history (++up++ and ++down++), autocompletion, and more. To help keep track of
which prompts generated which images, the script writes a log file of image
names and prompts to the selected output directory.

In addition, as of version 1.02, it also writes the prompt into the PNG file's
metadata where it can be retrieved using `scripts/images2prompt.py`

The script is confirmed to work on Linux, Windows and Mac systems.

!!! note

    This script runs from the command-line or can be used as a Web application. The Web GUI is
    currently rudimentary, but a much better replacement is on its way.

![invoke-py-demo](../assets/dream-py-demo.png)

The `invoke>` prompt's arguments are pretty much identical to those used in the
Discord bot, except you don't need to type `!invoke` (it doesn't hurt if you do).
A significant change is that creation of individual images is now the default
unless `--grid` (`-g`) is given. A full list is given in
[List of prompt arguments](#list-of-prompt-arguments).

## Arguments

The script itself also recognizes a series of command-line switches that will
change important global defaults, such as the directory for image outputs and
the location of the model weight files.

### List of arguments recognized at the command line

These command-line arguments can be passed to `invoke.py` when you first run it
from the Windows, Mac or Linux command line. Some set defaults that can be
overridden on a per-prompt basis (see [List of prompt arguments](#list-of-prompt-arguments). Others

!!! warning deprecated

    These arguments are deprecated but still work:

    <div align="center" markdown>

    | Argument           |  Shortcut  |  Default            |  Description |
    |--------------------|------------|---------------------|--------------|
    | `--weights <path>`   |            | `None`                | Pth to weights file; use `--model stable-diffusion-1.4` instead |

    </div>

!!! tip

      On Windows systems, you may run into
      problems when passing the invoke script standard backslashed path
      names because the Python interpreter treats "\" as an escape.
      You can either double your slashes (ick): `C:\\path\\to\\my\\file`, or
      use Linux/Mac style forward slashes (better): `C:/path/to/my/file`.

## List of prompt arguments

After the invoke.py script initializes, it will present you with a
`invoke>` prompt. Here you can enter information to generate images
from text ([txt2img](#txt2img)), to embellish an existing image or sketch
([img2img](#img2img)), or to selectively alter chosen regions of the image
([inpainting](#inpainting)).

### txt2img

!!! example

    ```bash
    invoke> waterfall and rainbow -W640 -H480
    ```

    This will create the requested image with the dimensions 640 (width)
    and 480 (height).

Here are the invoke> command that apply to txt2img:

| Argument <img width="680" align="right"/> | Shortcut <img width="420" align="right"/> | Default <img width="480" align="right"/> | Description |
|--------------------|------------|---------------------|--------------|
| "my prompt"        |            |                    | Text prompt to use. The quotation marks are optional. |
| --width <int>      | -W<int>   | 512                 | Width of generated image |
| --height <int>     | -H<int>   | 512                 | Height of generated image |
| --iterations <int> | -n<int>   | 1                   | How many images to generate from this prompt |
| --steps <int>      | -s<int>   | 50                  | How many steps of refinement to apply |
| --cfg_scale <float>| -C<float> | 7.5                 | How hard to try to match the prompt to the generated image; any number greater than 1.0 works, but the useful range is roughly 5.0 to 20.0 |
| --seed <int>       | -S<int>   | None                | Set the random seed for the next series of images. This can be used to recreate an image generated previously.|
| --sampler <sampler>| -A<sampler>| k_lms              | Sampler to use. Use -h to get list of available samplers. |
| --hires_fix        |           |                     | Larger images often have duplication artefacts. This option suppresses duplicates by generating the image at low res, and then using img2img to increase the resolution |
| --png_compression <0-9> | -z<0-9> |  6           | Select level of compression for output files, from 0 (no compression) to 9 (max compression)         |
| --grid             | -g        | False               | Turn on grid mode to return a single image combining all the images generated by this prompt |
| --individual       | -i        | True                | Turn off grid mode (deprecated; leave off --grid instead) |
| --outdir <path>    |  -o<path> | outputs/img_samples  | Temporarily change the location of these images |
| --seamless         |           | False               | Activate seamless tiling for interesting effects |
| --seamless_axes    |           | x,y                 | Specify which axes to use circular convolution on. |
| --log_tokenization | -t        | False               | Display a color-coded list of the parsed tokens derived from the prompt |
| --skip_normalization| -x       | False               | Weighted subprompts will not be normalized. See [Weighted Prompts](./OTHER.md#weighted-prompts) |
| --upscale <int> <float> | -U <int> <float> | -U 1 0.75| Upscale image by magnification factor (2, 4), and set strength of upscaling (0.0-1.0). If strength not set, will default to 0.75. |
| --facetool_strength <float>  | -G <float> | -G0        | Fix faces (defaults to using the GFPGAN algorithm); argument indicates how hard the algorithm should try (0.0-1.0) |
| --facetool <name> | -ft <name> | -ft gfpgan | Select face restoration algorithm to use: gfpgan, codeformer |
| --codeformer_fidelity | -cf <float> | 0.75 | Used along with CodeFormer. Takes values between 0 and 1. 0 produces high quality but low accuracy. 1 produces high accuracy but low quality |
| --save_original    | -save_orig| False               | When upscaling or fixing faces, this will cause the original image to be saved rather than replaced. |
| --variation <float>  |-v<float>| 0.0                 | Add a bit of noise (0.0=none, 1.0=high) to the image in order to generate a series of variations. Usually used in combination with -S<seed> and -n<int> to generate a series a riffs on a starting image. See [Variations](./VARIATIONS.md). |
| --with_variations <pattern> |    | None              | Combine two or more variations. See [Variations](./VARIATIONS.md) for now to use this. |
| --save_intermediates <n>    |    | None              | Save the image from every nth step into an "intermediates" folder inside the output directory |

Note that the width and height of the image must be multiples of
64. You can provide different values, but they will be rounded down to
the nearest multiple of 64.


### This is an example of img2img:	

~~~~
invoke> waterfall and rainbow -I./vacation-photo.png -W640 -H480 --fit
~~~~

This will modify the indicated vacation photograph by making it more
like the prompt. Results will vary greatly depending on what is in the
image. We also ask to --fit the image into a box no bigger than
640x480. Otherwise the image size will be identical to the provided
photo and you may run out of memory if it is large.

In addition to the command-line options recognized by txt2img, img2img
accepts additional options:

| Argument <img width="160" align="right"/> |  Shortcut   |  Default        |  Description |
|----------------------|-------------|-----------------|--------------|
| `--init_img <path>`  | `-I<path>`  | `None`          | Path to the initialization image |
| `--fit`              | `-F`        | `False`         | Scale the image to fit into the specified -H and -W dimensions |
| `--strength <float>` | `-s<float>` | `0.75`          | How hard to try to match the prompt to the initial image. Ranges from 0.0-0.99, with higher values replacing the initial image completely.|

### inpainting

!!! example

    ```bash
    invoke> waterfall and rainbow -I./vacation-photo.png -M./vacation-mask.png -W640 -H480 --fit
    ```

    This will do the same thing as img2img, but image alterations will
    only occur within transparent areas defined by the mask file specified
    by `-M`. You may also supply just a single initial image with the areas
    to overpaint made transparent, but you must be careful not to destroy
    the pixels underneath when you create the transparent areas. See
    [Inpainting](./INPAINTING.md) for details.

inpainting accepts all the arguments used for txt2img and img2img, as
well as the --mask (-M) and --text_mask (-tm) arguments:

| Argument <img width="100" align="right"/> |  Shortcut  |  Default            |  Description |
|--------------------|------------|---------------------|--------------|
| `--init_mask <path>` | `-M<path>`   | `None`                |Path to an image the same size as the initial_image, with areas for inpainting made transparent.|
| `--invert_mask   ` |                | False                 |If true, invert the mask so that transparent areas are opaque and vice versa.|
| `--text_mask <prompt> [<float>]` | `-tm <prompt> [<float>]` | <none>  | Create a mask from a text prompt describing part of the image|

The mask may either be an image with transparent areas, in which case
the inpainting will occur in the transparent areas only, or a black
and white image, in which case all black areas will be painted into.

`--text_mask` (short form `-tm`) is a way to generate a mask using a
text description of the part of the image to replace. For example, if
you have an image of a breakfast plate with a bagel, toast and
scrambled eggs, you can selectively mask the bagel and replace it with
a piece of cake this way:

~~~
invoke> a piece of cake -I /path/to/breakfast.png -tm bagel
~~~

The algorithm uses <a
href="https://github.com/timojl/clipseg">clipseg</a> to classify
different regions of the image. The classifier puts out a confidence
score for each region it identifies. Generally regions that score
above 0.5 are reliable, but if you are getting too much or too little
masking you can adjust the threshold down (to get more mask), or up
(to get less). In this example, by passing `-tm` a higher value, we
are insisting on a more stringent classification.

~~~
invoke> a piece of cake -I /path/to/breakfast.png -tm bagel 0.6
~~~

# Other Commands

The CLI offers a number of commands that begin with "!".

## Postprocessing images

To postprocess a file using face restoration or upscaling, use the
`!fix` command.

### `!fix`

This command runs a post-processor on a previously-generated image. It
takes a PNG filename or path and applies your choice of the `-U`, `-G`, or
`--embiggen` switches in order to fix faces or upscale. If you provide a
filename, the script will look for it in the current output
directory. Otherwise you can provide a full or partial path to the
desired file.

### !mask

This command takes an image, a text prompt, and uses the `clipseg`
algorithm to automatically generate a mask of the area that matches
the text prompt. It is useful for debugging the text masking process
prior to inpainting with the `--text_mask` argument. See
[INPAINTING.md] for details.

## Model selection and importation

The CLI allows you to add new models on the fly, as well as to switch
among them rapidly without leaving the script.

### !models

This prints out a list of the models defined in `config/models.yaml'.
The active model is bold-faced

Example:
<pre>
laion400m                 not loaded  <no description>
<b>stable-diffusion-1.4          active  Stable Diffusion v1.4</b>
waifu-diffusion           not loaded  Waifu Diffusion v1.3
</pre>

### !switch <model>

This quickly switches from one model to another without leaving the 
CLI script. `invoke.py` uses a memory caching system; once a model
has been loaded, switching back and forth is quick. The following
example shows this in action. Note how the second column of the 
`!models` table changes to `cached` after a model is first loaded,
and that the long initialization step is not needed when loading
a cached model.

<pre>
invoke> !models
laion400m                 not loaded  <no description>
<b>stable-diffusion-1.4          cached  Stable Diffusion v1.4</b>
waifu-diffusion               active  Waifu Diffusion v1.3

invoke> !switch waifu-diffusion
>> Caching model stable-diffusion-1.4 in system RAM
>> Loading waifu-diffusion from models/ldm/stable-diffusion-v1/model-epoch08-float16.ckpt
   | LatentDiffusion: Running in eps-prediction mode
   | DiffusionWrapper has 859.52 M params.
   | Making attention of type 'vanilla' with 512 in_channels
   | Working with z of shape (1, 4, 32, 32) = 4096 dimensions.
   | Making attention of type 'vanilla' with 512 in_channels

>> Max VRAM used to load the model: 2.17G 
>> Current VRAM usage:2.17G
>> Setting Sampler to k_lms

invoke> !models
laion400m                 not loaded  <no description>
stable-diffusion-1.4          cached  Stable Diffusion v1.4
<b>waifu-diffusion               active  Waifu Diffusion v1.3</b>

invoke> !switch stable-diffusion-1.4
>> Caching model waifu-diffusion in system RAM
>> Retrieving model stable-diffusion-1.4 from system RAM cache
>> Setting Sampler to k_lms

invoke> !models
laion400m                 not loaded  <no description>
<b>stable-diffusion-1.4          active  Stable Diffusion v1.4</b>
waifu-diffusion               cached  Waifu Diffusion v1.3
</pre>

### !import_model <path/to/model/weights>

This command imports a new model weights file into InvokeAI, makes it
available for image generation within the script, and writes out the
configuration for the model into `config/models.yaml` for use in 
subsequent sessions.

Provide `!import_model` with the path to a weights file ending in
`.ckpt`.  If you type a partial path and press tab, the CLI will
autocomplete. Although it will also autocomplete to `.vae` files,
these are not currenty supported (but will be soon).

When you hit return, the CLI will prompt you to fill in additional
information about the model, including the short name you wish to use
for it with the `!switch` command, a brief description of the model,
the default image width and height to use with this model, and the
model's configuration file. The latter three fields are automatically
filled with reasonable defaults. In the example below, the bold-faced
text shows what the user typed in with the exception of the width,
height and configuration file paths, which were filled in
automatically.

Example:

<pre>
invoke> <b>!import_model models/ldm/stable-diffusion-v1/	model-epoch08-float16.ckpt</b>
>> Model import in process. Please enter the values needed to configure this model:

Name for this model: <b>waifu-diffusion</b>
Description of this model: <b>Waifu Diffusion v1.3</b>
Configuration file for this model: <b>configs/stable-diffusion/v1-inference.yaml</b>
Default image width: <b>512</b>
Default image height: <b>512</b>
>> New configuration:
waifu-diffusion:
  config: configs/stable-diffusion/v1-inference.yaml

  height: 512
  weights: models/ldm/stable-diffusion-v1/model-epoch08-float16.ckpt
  width: 512

###!edit_model <name_of_model>

The `!edit_model` command can be used to modify a model that is
already defined in `config/models.yaml`. Call it with the short
name of the model you wish to modify, and it will allow you to
modify the model's `description`, `weights` and other fields.

Example:
<pre>
invoke> <b>!edit_model waifu-diffusion</b>
>> Editing model waifu-diffusion from configuration file ./configs/models.yaml
description: <b>Waifu diffusion v1.4beta</b>
weights: models/ldm/stable-diffusion-v1/<b>model-epoch10-float16.ckpt</b>
config: configs/stable-diffusion/v1-inference.yaml
width: 512
height: 512

>> New configuration:
waifu-diffusion:
  config: configs/stable-diffusion/v1-inference.yaml
  description: Waifu diffusion v1.4beta
  weights: models/ldm/stable-diffusion-v1/model-epoch10-float16.ckpt
  height: 512
  width: 512

## History processing

The CLI provides a series of convenient commands for reviewing previous
actions, retrieving them, modifying them, and re-running them.

### !history

The invoke script keeps track of all the commands you issue during a
session, allowing you to re-run them. On Mac and Linux systems, it
also writes the command-line history out to disk, giving you access to
the most recent 1000 commands issued.

The `!history` command will return a numbered list of all the commands
issued during the session (Windows), or the most recent 1000 commands
(Mac|Linux). You can then repeat a command by using the command `!NNN`,
where "NNN" is the history line number. For example:

```bash
invoke> !history
...
[14] happy woman sitting under tree wearing broad hat and flowing garment
[15] beautiful woman sitting under tree wearing broad hat and flowing garment
[18] beautiful woman sitting under tree wearing broad hat and flowing garment -v0.2 -n6
[20] watercolor of beautiful woman sitting under tree wearing broad hat and flowing garment -v0.2 -n6 -S2878767194
[21] surrealist painting of beautiful woman sitting under tree wearing broad hat and flowing garment -v0.2 -n6 -S2878767194
...
invoke> !20
invoke> watercolor of beautiful woman sitting under tree wearing broad hat and flowing garment -v0.2 -n6 -S2878767194
```

### !fetch

This command retrieves the generation parameters from a previously
generated image and either loads them into the command line
(Linux|Mac), or prints them out in a comment for copy-and-paste
(Windows). You may provide either the name of a file in the current
output directory, or a full file path.  Specify path to a folder with
image png files, and wildcard *.png to retrieve the dream command used
to generate the images, and save them to a file commands.txt for
further processing.

This example loads the generation command for a single png file:

```bash
invoke> !fetch 0000015.8929913.png
# the script returns the next line, ready for editing and running:
invoke> a fantastic alien landscape -W 576 -H 512 -s 60 -A plms -C 7.5
```

This one fetches the generation commands from a batch of files and
stores them into `selected.txt`:

```bash
invoke> !fetch outputs\selected-imgs\*.png selected.txt
```

### !replay

This command replays a text file generated by !fetch or created manually

~~~
invoke> !replay outputs\selected-imgs\selected.txt
~~~

Note that these commands may behave unexpectedly if given a PNG file that
was not generated by InvokeAI.

### !search <search string>

This is similar to !history but it only returns lines that contain
`search string`. For example:

```bash
invoke> !search surreal
[21] surrealist painting of beautiful woman sitting under tree wearing broad hat and flowing garment -v0.2 -n6 -S2878767194
```

### `!clear`

This clears the search history from memory and disk. Be advised that
this operation is irreversible and does not issue any warnings!

## Command-line editing and completion

The command-line offers convenient history tracking, editing, and
command completion.

- To scroll through previous commands and potentially edit/reuse them, use the ++up++ and ++down++ keys.
- To edit the current command, use the ++left++ and ++right++ keys to position the cursor, and then ++backspace++, ++delete++ or insert characters.
- To move to the very beginning of the command, type ++ctrl+a++ (or ++command+a++ on the Mac)
- To move to the end of the command, type ++ctrl+e++.
- To cut a section of the command, position the cursor where you want to start cutting and type ++ctrl+k++
- To paste a cut section back in, position the cursor where you want to paste, and type ++ctrl+y++

Windows users can get similar, but more limited, functionality if they
launch `invoke.py` with the `winpty` program and have the `pyreadline3`
library installed:

```batch
> winpty python scripts\invoke.py
```

On the Mac and Linux platforms, when you exit invoke.py, the last 1000
lines of your command-line history will be saved. When you restart
`invoke.py`, you can access the saved history using the ++up++ key.

In addition, limited command-line completion is installed. In various
contexts, you can start typing your command and press ++tab++. A list of
potential completions will be presented to you. You can then type a
little more, hit ++tab++ again, and eventually autocomplete what you want.

When specifying file paths using the one-letter shortcuts, the CLI
will attempt to complete pathnames for you. This is most handy for the
`-I` (init image) and `-M` (init mask) paths. To initiate completion, start
the path with a slash (`/`) or `./`. For example:

```bash
invoke> zebra with a mustache -I./test-pictures<TAB>
-I./test-pictures/Lincoln-and-Parrot.png  -I./test-pictures/zebra.jpg        -I./test-pictures/madonna.png
-I./test-pictures/bad-sketch.png          -I./test-pictures/man_with_eagle/
```

You can then type ++z++, hit ++tab++ again, and it will autofill to `zebra.jpg`.

More text completion features (such as autocompleting seeds) are on their way.
