This repository is a fork of stable-diffusion.cpp. It adds a GUI interface to the executable generating examples. The GUI acts as a local server. Examples can be generated continuously without reloading the model(s).

• Only requires installation of Qt (5 or 6)

• To enable, use CMake options:

  -DSD_BUILD_EXAMPLES=ON -DSD_EXAMPLES_GLOVE_GUI=ON

• Comes with precompiled binaries ready to use for Windows requiring no further installation.

  • -bin-win-avx2-x64 : Compatible with (most) x64 CPU

  • -bin-win-cuda12-x64 : Compatible with Nvidia graphic card GeForce GTX 950 and after (ie: RTX series are compatible).

• The models are reloaded only if their parameters are changed. If any of the Context options parameters is changed, then the models are reloaded.

  • Possibility to generate images with different prompts/size on the fly

• Parameters saving as json, upon acceptance (Ok button):

  • The parameters are saved automatically at the execution location
  • The parameters are also copied automatically to the directory of the --output path

• Parameters loading:

  • The last used parameters are automatically loaded at launch
  • Parameters can be loaded
    • by using the Load button
    • or: sd -glove 'path-to-parameters-file'

• Parameters filtering:

  • The parameters can be filtered by name

• Parameters parsing

  • A command line can be pasted using the Parse button

• Progress :

  • Monitoring of progression
  • Possibility to cancel

• Warning/error messages display

• Possibility to generate images sequences using img_gen mode and by setting the output image to be the same as the input image. See Images sequence parameters.

• By default, the setup is configured for a desktop application (i.e. : launch using executable icon on desktop). One can disable this default behaviour by additionaly setting the following CMake command:

  -DSD_EXAMPLES_GLOVE_GUI_DESKTOP=OFF

  In this case, the GUI will be accessible using the following CLI argument:

  sd -glove

  and the terminal will be visible. In both cases, CLI arguments of SD examples remain operational.

• On Windows, if DLLs are missing, go to the sd executable directory and apply the command:

  windeployqt.exe sd.exe
