LatentSender Description

Facilitates saving and sharing latent representations in AI art workflows, generating preview images and saving data with metadata.

LatentSender:

LatentSender is a specialized node designed to facilitate the saving and sharing of latent representations in AI art workflows. Its primary function is to take latent samples, generate a preview image, and save the latent data along with any associated metadata to a file. This node is particularly useful for artists who need to share their latent representations with others or save them for future use. By converting latent data into a shareable format, LatentSender ensures that the intricate details of your AI-generated art can be preserved and easily transferred. The node also supports the inclusion of additional metadata, such as prompts and extra information, enhancing the context and usability of the saved latents.

LatentSender Input Parameters:

samples

This parameter represents the latent samples that you want to save and share. It is a dictionary containing the latent tensor under the key "samples". The latent samples are the core data that will be processed and saved by the node.

filename_prefix

This parameter allows you to specify a prefix for the filename under which the latent data will be saved. The default value is "latents/LatentSender". This helps in organizing and categorizing the saved files, making it easier to locate them later.

This parameter is used to identify the link for synchronization purposes. It is an integer value, with the default being 0. This ID helps in managing and tracking the saved latents, especially when multiple latents are being processed simultaneously.

preview_method

This parameter determines the method used to generate a preview image from the latent samples. The default value is "Latent2RGB-SDXL". The preview method is crucial for visualizing the latent data, providing a quick look at what the latent represents.

prompt

This optional parameter allows you to include a text prompt associated with the latent samples. Including a prompt can provide context and additional information about the latent data, making it more informative and useful.

extra_pnginfo

This optional parameter allows you to include additional metadata in the form of a dictionary. This metadata can contain any extra information you deem necessary, further enriching the saved latent data.

LatentSender Output Parameters:

ui

This output parameter is a dictionary containing information about the saved latent images. It includes the filename, subfolder, and type of the saved latent, providing a comprehensive overview of the saved data. This information is crucial for locating and utilizing the saved latents in future workflows.

LatentSender Usage Tips:

  • Ensure that your latent samples are correctly formatted and contain the necessary data under the key "samples" to avoid errors during the saving process.
  • Use descriptive and organized filename prefixes to make it easier to locate and manage your saved latents.
  • Choose an appropriate preview method that best represents your latent data, as this will help in quickly visualizing and understanding the saved latents.
  • Include relevant prompts and additional metadata to provide context and enhance the usability of the saved latents.

LatentSender Common Errors and Solutions:

The version of latent is not compatible with preview_method.

  • Explanation: This error occurs when the latent samples' channels do not match the expected channels for the selected preview method.
  • Solution: Ensure that the latent samples are compatible with the chosen preview method. Check the number of channels in your latent samples and select a preview method that supports that configuration.

Missing key "samples" in the input dictionary.

  • Explanation: This error occurs when the input dictionary does not contain the key "samples".
  • Solution: Verify that your input dictionary includes the key "samples" and that it contains the latent tensor data.
  • Explanation: This error occurs when the provided link_id is not valid or recognized.
  • Solution: Ensure that the link_id is an integer and is correctly specified. Check for any typos or incorrect values.

Failed to save latent data to file.

  • Explanation: This error occurs when there is an issue with saving the latent data to the specified file path.
  • Solution: Check the file path and ensure that you have the necessary permissions to write to the directory. Verify that the filename prefix and other parameters are correctly specified.
