Not pointed towards the correct directories for checkpoints / loras / etc

[JimmyTime]

I've tried both the LORA and Canny workflows, and I'm getting held up bc the new nodes aren't looking in the proper places for them. Should be looking where all other nodes look for them.

Seconded, please change to default directories for loras and controlnets instead of hiding in a xlabs model folder. Working on a cloud service these types of mappings are very troublesome. Default model directories or ability to change mapped directory should be standard.

Instead of models/xlabs/loras, it should be models/loras.
Instead of models/xlabs/controlnets, it should be models/controlnet
And instead of models/xlabs/flux, it should be models/unet

And then additionally, we should be checking each of these paths recursively.

Thanks for that, I was struggling finding what to change on my own!

I've set a custom directory on a different hard drive for all my models and checkpoints, and comfyui opens it properly but the xlabs custom node does not.

I agree with previous commentor that director should be models\loras not models\xlabs\loras, but in addition your custom node should use the settings that are already configured in comfyui or in the "extra_model_paths.yaml" files

We can modify the nodes.pyfile with the following code:

from comfy.utils import get_attr, set_attr

The modification starts below

if "xlabs" not in folder_paths.folder_names_and_paths:
dir_xlabs = os.path.join(folder_paths.models_dir, "xlabs")
else:
dir_xlabs_list, _ = folder_paths.folder_names_and_paths["xlabs"]
dir_xlabs = dir_xlabs_list[1] # Select the path in the list

The modification ends above

os.makedirs(dir_xlabs, exist_ok=True)
dir_xlabs_loras = os.path.join(dir_xlabs, "loras")
os.makedirs(dir_xlabs_loras, exist_ok=True)
dir_xlabs_controlnets = os.path.join(dir_xlabs, "controlnets")
os.makedirs(dir_xlabs_controlnets, exist_ok=True)
dir_xlabs_flux = os.path.join(dir_xlabs, "flux")
os.makedirs(dir_xlabs_flux, exist_ok=True)
dir_xlabs_ipadapters = os.path.join(dir_xlabs, "ipadapters")
os.makedirs(dir_xlabs_ipadapters, exist_ok=True)

Then, as with other projects, add the xlabs reference in folder_paths.py and extra_model_paths.yaml.

No one wants to double the storage needed to use 2 different webuis.

I had to chase down where the default folder even was as it didn't exist on my computer.

我想知道如何修改extra_model_paths.yaml文件，使得controlnet模型和lora模型，能够识别。谢谢～

I don't understand, it stats below what? and ends above what in the original file? Where do yuou make these changes exaclty?

Edit: oh its the custom nodes file not the ones in main comfy directory.

Hello
I cant find thise code to replace:

 file_path_x = os.path.join(dir_xlabs_flux, config_path)
сkpt_path_x = os.path.join(dir_xlabs_flux, model_path)
#file_path_u = os.path.join(dir_xlabs_flux, config_path)
#file_path_c = os.path.join(dir_xlabs_flux, config_path)

I can't find it inside nodes.py of the custom node??

I see it here: https://github.com/XLabs-AI/x-flux-comfyui/pull/20/files

x-flux-comfyui is really a maverick plugin with a superior independent model path O(∩_∩)O
You're going to copy one model into two and put it in another folder, it's a genius idea, the author insists on it, because the feedback has been so long and he still ignores it, it's really a genius that mortals can't understand!
