We are now using the lefthand vertical strip for the settings menu button. This is a good place for the status indicator.
Really, we only need to display something *if there is a problem*. If the app is processing, the progress bar indicates that.
For the case where the panels are collapsed, I'll add the floating buttons back in some form, and we'll indicate via those if the app is processing something.
just make it like a normal button - normal and hover state, no difference when its expanded. the icon clearly indicates this, and you see the extra components
On one hand I like the color but on the other it makes this divider a focus point, which doesn't really makes sense to me. I tried several shades but think it adds a bit too much distraction for your eyes.
There was an extra div, needed for the fullscreen file upload dropzone, that made styling the main app containers a bit awkward.
Refactor the uploader a bit to simplify this - no longer need so many app-level wrappers. Much cleaner.
- Do not _merge_ prompt and style prompt when concat is enabled - either use the prompt as style, or use the style directly.
- Set style prompt metadata correctly.
- Add metadata recall for style prompt.
`react-select` has some weird behaviour where if the value is `undefined`, it shows the last-selected value instead of nothing. Must fall back to `null`
Ensure workflow editor model selector component gets a value
This introduced some funky type issues related to ONNX models. ONNX doesn't work anyways (unmaintained). Instead of fixing the types to work with a non-working feature, ONNX is now removed entirely from the UI.
- Remove all refs to ONNX (and Olives)
- Fix some type issues
- Add ONNX nodes to the nodes denylist (so they are not visible in UI)
- Update VAE graph helper, which still had some ONNX logic. It's a very simple change and doesn't change any logic. Just removes some conditions that were for ONNX. I tested it and nothing broke.
- Regenerate types
- Fix prettier and eslint ignores for generated types
- Lint
- Prompt must have an open curly brace followed by a close curly brace to enable dynamic prompts processing
- If a the given prompt already had a dynamic prompt cached, do not re-process
- If processing is not needed, user may invoke immediately
- Invoke button shows loading state when dynamic prompts are processing, tooltip says generating
- Dynamic prompts preview icon in prompt box shows loading state when processing, tooltip says generating
Canvas and non-canvas have separate width and height and need their own separate aspect ratios. In order to not duplicate a lot of aspect ratio logic, the components relating to image size have been modularized.
There are a few breaking changes, which I've addressed.
The vast majority of changes are related to new handling of `reselect`'s `createSelector` options.
For better or worse, we memoize just about all our selectors using lodash `isEqual` for `resultEqualityCheck`. The upgrade requires we explicitly set the `memoize` option to `lruMemoize` to continue using lodash here.
Doing that required changing our `defaultSelectorOptions`.
Instead of changing that and finding dozens of instances where we weren't using that and instead were defining selector options manually, I've created a pre-configured selector: `createMemoizedSelector`.
This is now used everywhere instead of `createSelector`.
This logic is moved into a hook.
This is needed for our context menus to close when the user clicks something in reactflow. It needed to be extended to support menus also.
* chore: bump pydantic to 2.5.2

* fix(ui): exclude public/en.json from prettier config
* fix(workflow_records): fix SQLite workflow insertion to ignore duplicates
* feat(backend): update workflows handling
Update workflows handling for Workflow Library.
**Updated Workflow Storage**
"Embedded Workflows" are workflows associated with images, and are now only stored in the image files. "Library Workflows" are not associated with images, and are stored only in DB.
This works out nicely. We have always saved workflows to files, but recently began saving them to the DB in addition to in image files. When that happened, we stopped reading workflows from files, so all the workflows that only existed in images were inaccessible. With this change, access to those workflows is restored, and no workflows are lost.
**Updated Workflow Handling in Nodes**
Prior to this change, workflows were embedded in images by passing the whole workflow JSON to a special workflow field on a node. In the node's `invoke()` function, the node was able to access this workflow and save it with the image. This (inaccurately) models workflows as a property of an image and is rather awkward technically.
A workflow is now a property of a batch/session queue item. It is available in the InvocationContext and therefore available to all nodes during `invoke()`.
**Database Migrations**
Added a `SQLiteMigrator` class to handle database migrations. Migrations were needed to accomodate the DB-related changes in this PR. See the code for details.
The `images`, `workflows` and `session_queue` tables required migrations for this PR, and are using the new migrator. Other tables/services are still creating tables themselves. A followup PR will adapt them to use the migrator.
**Other/Support Changes**
- Add a `has_workflow` column to `images` table to indicate that the image has an embedded workflow.
- Add handling for retrieving the workflow from an image in python. The image file must be fetched, the workflow extracted, and then sent to client, avoiding needing the browser to parse the image file. With the `has_workflow` column, the UI knows if there is a workflow to be fetched, and only fetches when the user requests to load the workflow.
- Add route to get the workflow from an image
- Add CRUD service/routes for the library workflows
- `workflow_images` table and services removed (no longer needed now that embedded workflows are not in the DB)

IndexedDB has a much larger storage limit than LocalStorage, and is widely supported.
Implemented as a custom storage driver for `redux-remember` via `idb-keyval`. `idb-keyval` is a simple wrapper for IndexedDB that allows it to be used easily as a key-value store.
The logic to clear persisted storage has been updated throughout the app.
Node authors may now create their own arbitrary/custom field types. Any pydantic model is supported.
Two notes:
1. Your field type's class name must be unique.
Suggest prefixing fields with something related to the node pack as a kind of namespace.
2. Custom field types function as connection-only fields.
For example, if your custom field has string attributes, you will not get a text input for that attribute when you give a node a field with your custom type.
This is the same behaviour as other complex fields that don't have custom UIs in the workflow editor - like, say, a string collection.
feat(ui): fix tooltips for custom types
We need to hold onto the original type of the field so they don't all just show up as "Unknown".
fix(ui): fix ts error with custom fields
feat(ui): custom field types connection validation
In the initial commit, a custom field's original type was added to the *field templates* only as `originalType`. Custom fields' `type` property was `"Custom"`*. This allowed for type safety throughout the UI logic.
*Actually, it was `"Unknown"`, but I changed it to custom for clarity.
Connection validation logic, however, uses the *field instance* of the node/field. Like the templates, *field instances* with custom types have their `type` set to `"Custom"`, but they didn't have an `originalType` property. As a result, all custom fields could be connected to all other custom fields.
To resolve this, we need to add `originalType` to the *field instances*, then switch the validation logic to use this instead of `type`.
This ended up needing a bit of fanagling:
- If we make `originalType` a required property on field instances, existing workflows will break during connection validation, because they won't have this property. We'd need a new layer of logic to migrate the workflows, adding the new `originalType` property.
While this layer is probably needed anyways, typing `originalType` as optional is much simpler. Workflow migration logic can come layer.
(Technically, we could remove all references to field types from the workflow files, and let the templates hold all this information. This feels like a significant change and I'm reluctant to do it now.)
- Because `originalType` is optional, anywhere we care about the type of a field, we need to use it over `type`. So there are a number of `field.originalType ?? field.type` expressions. This is a bit of a gotcha, we'll need to remember this in the future.
- We use `Array.prototype.includes()` often in the workflow editor, e.g. `COLLECTION_TYPES.includes(type)`. In these cases, the const array is of type `FieldType[]`, and `type` is is `FieldType`.
Because we now support custom types, the arg `type` is now widened from `FieldType` to `string`.
This causes a TS error. This behaviour is somewhat controversial (see https://github.com/microsoft/TypeScript/issues/14520). These expressions are now rewritten as `COLLECTION_TYPES.some((t) => t === type)` to satisfy TS. It's logically equivalent.

Use of this could break connection validation due to the difference in node schemas required fields and invoke() required args.
Removed entirely for now. It wasn't ever actually used by the system, because all graphs always had values provided for fields where default_factory was used.
Also, pydantic is smart enough to not reuse the same object when specifying a default value - it clones the object first. So, the common pattern of `default_factory=list` is extraneous. It can just be `default=[]`.

Upgrade pydantic and fastapi to latest.
- pydantic~=2.4.2
- fastapi~=103.2
- fastapi-events~=0.9.1
**Big Changes**
There are a number of logic changes needed to support pydantic v2. Most changes are very simple, like using the new methods to serialized and deserialize models, but there are a few more complex changes.
**Invocations**
The biggest change relates to invocation creation, instantiation and validation.
Because pydantic v2 moves all validation logic into the rust pydantic-core, we may no longer directly stick our fingers into the validation pie.
Previously, we (ab)used models and fields to allow invocation fields to be optional at instantiation, but required when `invoke()` is called. We directly manipulated the fields and invocation models when calling `invoke()`.
With pydantic v2, this is much more involved. Changes to the python wrapper do not propagate down to the rust validation logic - you have to rebuild the model. This causes problem with concurrent access to the invocation classes and is not a free operation.
This logic has been totally refactored and we do not need to change the model any more. The details are in `baseinvocation.py`, in the `InputField` function and `BaseInvocation.invoke_internal()` method.
In the end, this implementation is cleaner.
**Invocation Fields**
In pydantic v2, you can no longer directly add or remove fields from a model.
Previously, we did this to add the `type` field to invocations.
**Invocation Decorators**
With pydantic v2, we instead use the imperative `create_model()` API to create a new model with the additional field. This is done in `baseinvocation.py` in the `invocation()` wrapper.
A similar technique is used for `invocation_output()`.
**Minor Changes**
There are a number of minor changes around the pydantic v2 models API.
**Protected `model_` Namespace**
All models' pydantic-provided methods and attributes are prefixed with `model_` and this is considered a protected namespace. This causes some conflict, because "model" means something to us, and we have a ton of pydantic models with attributes starting with "model_".
Forunately, there are no direct conflicts. However, in any pydantic model where we define an attribute or method that starts with "model_", we must tell set the protected namespaces to an empty tuple.
```py
class IPAdapterModelField(BaseModel):
model_name: str = Field(description="Name of the IP-Adapter model")
base_model: BaseModelType = Field(description="Base model")
model_config = ConfigDict(protected_namespaces=())
```
**Model Serialization**
Pydantic models no longer have `Model.dict()` or `Model.json()`.
Instead, we use `Model.model_dump()` or `Model.model_dump_json()`.
**Model Deserialization**
Pydantic models no longer have `Model.parse_obj()` or `Model.parse_raw()`, and there are no `parse_raw_as()` or `parse_obj_as()` functions.
Instead, you need to create a `TypeAdapter` object to parse python objects or JSON into a model.
```py
adapter_graph = TypeAdapter(Graph)
deserialized_graph_from_json = adapter_graph.validate_json(graph_json)
deserialized_graph_from_dict = adapter_graph.validate_python(graph_dict)
```
**Field Customisation**
Pydantic `Field`s no longer accept arbitrary args.
Now, you must put all additional arbitrary args in a `json_schema_extra` arg on the field.
**Schema Customisation**
FastAPI and pydantic schema generation now follows the OpenAPI version 3.1 spec.
This necessitates two changes:
- Our schema customization logic has been revised
- Schema parsing to build node templates has been revised
The specific aren't important, but this does present additional surface area for bugs.
**Performance Improvements**
Pydantic v2 is a full rewrite with a rust backend. This offers a substantial performance improvement (pydantic claims 5x to 50x depending on the task). We'll notice this the most during serialization and deserialization of sessions/graphs, which happens very very often - a couple times per node.
I haven't done any benchmarks, but anecdotally, graph execution is much faster. Also, very larges graphs - like with massive iterators - are much, much faster.
There's a bug in chrome that screws with headers on fetch requests and 307 responses. This causes images to fail to copy in the commercial environment.
This change attempts to get around this by copying images in a different way (similar to how the canvas works). When the user requests a copy we:
- create an `<img />` element
- set `crossOrigin` if needed
- add an onload handler:
- create a canvas element
- draw image onto it
- export canvas to blob
This is wrapped in a promise which resolves to the blob, which can then be copied to clipboard.
---
A customized version of Konva's `useImage` hook is also included, which returns the image blob in addition to the `<img />` element. Unfortunately, this hook is not suitable for use across the app, because it does all the image fetching up front, regardless of whether we actually want to copy the image.
In other words, we'd have to fetch the whole image file even if the user is just skipping through image metadata, in order to have the blob to copy. The callback approach means we only fetch the image when the user clicks copy. The hook is thus currently unused.

Control adapters logic/state/ui is now generalized to hold controlnet, ip_adapter and t2i_adapter. In the future, other control adapter types can be added.
TODO:
- Limit IP adapter to 1
- Add T2I adapter to linear graphs
- Fix autoprocess
- T2I metadata saving & recall
- Improve on control adapters UI
Skeletons are for when we know the number of specific content items that are loading. When the queue is loading, we don't know how many items there are, or how many will load, so the whole list should be replaced with loading state.
The previous behaviour rendered a static number of skeletons. That number would rarely be the right number - the app shouldn't say "I'm loading 7 queue items", then load none, or load 50.
A future enhancement could use the queue item skeleton component and go by the total number of queue items, as reported by the queue status. I tried this but had some layout jankiness, not worth the effort right now.
The queue item skeleton component's styling was updated to support this future enhancement, making it exactly the same size as a queue item (it was a bit smaller before).
- Change translations to use arrays of paragraphs instead of a single paragraph.
- Change component to accept a `feature` prop to identify the feature which the popover describes.
- Add optional `wrapperProps`: passed to the wrapper element, allowing more flexibility when using the popover
- Add optional `popoverProps`: passed to the `<Popover />` component, allowing for overriding individual instances of the popover's props
- Move definitions of features and popover settings to `invokeai/frontend/web/src/common/components/IAIInformationalPopover/constants.ts`
- Add some type safety to the `feature` prop
- Edit `POPOVER_DATA` to provide `image`, `href`, `buttonLabel`, and any popover props. The popover props are applied to all instances of the popover for the given feature. Note that the component prop `popoverProps` will override settings here.
- Remove the popover's arrow. Because the popover is wrapping groups of components, sometimes the error ends up pointing to nothing, which looks kinda janky. I've just removed the arrow entirely, but feel free to add it back if you think it looks better.
- Use a `link` variant button with external link icon to better communicate that clicking the button will open a new tab.
- Default the link button label to "Learn More" (if a label is provided, that will be used instead)
- Make default position `top`, but set manually set some to `right` - namely, anything with a dropdown. This prevents the popovers from obscuring or being obscured by the dropdowns.
- Do a bit more restructuring of the Popover component itself, and how it is integrated with other components
- More ref forwarding
- Make the open delay 1s
- Set the popovers to use lazy mounting (eg do not mount until the user opens the thing)
- Update the verbiage for many popover items and add missing dynamic prompts stuff
* fix(config): fix typing issues in `config/`
`config/invokeai_config.py`:
- use `Optional` for things that are optional
- fix typing of `ram_cache_size()` and `vram_cache_size()`
- remove unused and incorrectly typed method `autoconvert_path`
- fix types and logic for `parse_args()`, in which `InvokeAIAppConfig.initconf` *must* be a `DictConfig`, but function would allow it to be set as a `ListConfig`, which presumably would cause issues elsewhere
`config/base.py`:
- use `cls` for first arg of class methods
- use `Optional` for things that are optional
- fix minor type issue related to setting of `env_prefix`
- remove unused `add_subparser()` method, which calls `add_parser()` on an `ArgumentParser` (method only available on the `_SubParsersAction` object, which is returned from ArgumentParser.add_subparsers()`)

Use a generator to do only as much work as is needed.
Previously, though we only ended up creating exactly as many queue items as was needed, there was still some intermediary work that calculated *all* permutations. When that number was very high, the system had a very hard time and used a lot of memory.
The logic has been refactored to use a generator. Additionally, the batch validators are optimized to return early and use less memory.
* feat(ui): add seed behaviour parameter
This dynamic prompts parameter allows the seed to be randomized per prompt or per iteration:
- Per iteration: Use the same seed for all prompts in a single dynamic prompt expansion
- Per prompt: Use a different seed for every single prompt
"Per iteration" is appropriate for exploring a the latents space with a stable starting noise, while "Per prompt" provides more variation.

* feat(queue): add timestamps to queue status updates

Supersedes #4574
The invocation cache provides simple node memoization functionality. Nodes that use the cache are memoized and not re-executed if their inputs haven't changed. Instead, the stored output is returned.
## Results
This feature provides anywhere some significant to massive performance improvement.
The improvement is most marked on large batches of generations where you only change a couple things (e.g. different seed or prompt for each iteration) and low-VRAM systems, where skipping an extraneous model load is a big deal.
## Overview
A new `invocation_cache` service is added to handle the caching. There's not much to it.
All nodes now inherit a boolean `use_cache` field from `BaseInvocation`. This is a node field and not a class attribute, because specific instances of nodes may want to opt in or out of caching.
The recently-added `invoke_internal()` method on `BaseInvocation` is used as an entrypoint for the cache logic.
To create a cache key, the invocation is first serialized using pydantic's provided `json()` method, skipping the unique `id` field. Then python's very fast builtin `hash()` is used to create an integer key. All implementations of `InvocationCacheBase` must provide a class method `create_key()` which accepts an invocation and outputs a string or integer key.
## In-Memory Implementation
An in-memory implementation is provided. In this implementation, the node outputs are stored in memory as python classes. The in-memory cache does not persist application restarts.
Max node cache size is added as `node_cache_size` under the `Generation` config category.
It defaults to 512 - this number is up for discussion, but given that these are relatively lightweight pydantic models, I think it's safe to up this even higher.
Note that the cache isn't storing the big stuff - tensors and images are store on disk, and outputs include only references to them.
## Node Definition
The default for all nodes is to use the cache. The `@invocation` decorator now accepts an optional `use_cache: bool` argument to override the default of `True`.
Non-deterministic nodes, however, should set this to `False`. Currently, all random-stuff nodes, including `dynamic_prompt`, are set to `False`.
The field name `use_cache` is now effectively a reserved field name and possibly a breaking change if any community nodes use this as a field name. In hindsight, all our reserved field names should have been prefixed with underscores or something.
## One Gotcha
Leaf nodes probably want to opt out of the cache, because if they are not cached, their outputs are not saved again.
If you run the same graph multiple times, you only end up with a single image output, because the image storage side-effects are in the `invoke()` method, which is bypassed if we have a cache hit.
## Linear UI
The linear graphs _almost_ just work, but due to the gotcha, we need to be careful about the final image-outputting node. To resolve this, a `SaveImageInvocation` node is added and used in the linear graphs.
This node is similar to `ImagePrimitive`, except it saves a copy of its input image, and has `use_cache` set to `False` by default.
This is now the leaf node in all linear graphs, and is the only node in those graphs with `use_cache == False` _and_ the only node with `is_intermedate == False`.
## Workflow Editor
All nodes now have a footer with a new `Use Cache [ ]` checkbox. It defaults to the value set by the invocation in its python definition, but can be changed by the user.
The workflow/node validation logic has been updated to migrate old workflows to use the new default values for `use_cache`. Users may still want to review the settings that have been chosen. In the event of catastrophic failure when running this migration, the default value of `True` is applied, as this is correct for most nodes.
Users should consider saving their workflows after loading them in and having them updated.
## Future Enhancements - Callback
A future enhancement would be to provide a callback to the `use_cache` flag that would be run as the node is executed to determine, based on its own internal state, if the cache should be used or not.
This would be useful for `DynamicPromptInvocation`, where the deterministic behaviour is determined by the `combinatorial: bool` field.
## Future Enhancements - Persisted Cache
Similar to how the latents storage is backed by disk, the invocation cache could be persisted to the database or disk. We'd need to be very careful about deserializing outputs, but it's perhaps worth exploring in the future.
* fix(ui): fix queue list item width
* feat(nodes): do not send the whole node on every generator progress
* feat(ui): strip out old logic related to sessions
Things like `isProcessing` are no longer relevant with queue. Removed them all & updated everything be appropriate for queue. May be a few little quirks I've missed...
* feat(ui): fix up param collapse labels
* feat(ui): click queue count to go to queue tab
* tidy(queue): update comment, query format
* feat(ui): fix progress bar when canceling
* fix(ui): fix circular dependency
* feat(nodes): bail on node caching logic if `node_cache_size == 0`
* feat(nodes): handle KeyError on node cache pop
* feat(nodes): bypass cache codepath if caches is disabled
more better no do thing
* fix(ui): reset api cache on connect/disconnect
* feat(ui): prevent enqueue when no prompts generated
* feat(ui): add queue controls to workflow editor
* feat(ui): update floating buttons & other incidental UI tweaks
* fix(ui): fix missing/incorrect translation keys
* fix(tests): add config service to mock invocation services
invoking needs access to `node_cache_size` to occur
* optionally remove pause/resume buttons from queue UI
* option to disable prepending
* chore(ui): remove unused file
* feat(queue): remove `order_id` entirely, `item_id` is now an autoinc pk
