⁠Docker Image for ComfyUI (Stable Diffusion)

⁠About

A Docker image for running ComfyUI⁠ with ComfyUI Manager⁠ pre-installed. This image has been tested on Linux with NVIDIA GPUs.

The following volume mounts are recommended for data persistence:

• /comfyui/user: Contains your workflows and personal workspace settings. Always mount this to preserve your workflows when updating or recreating the container
• /comfyui/models: Model files (checkpoints, VAE, Loras, etc.)
• /comfyui/custom_nodes: Custom nodes and extensions
• /comfyui/output: Generated images and other outputs
• /comfyui/input: Input images and other data

The /comfyui/user volume is particularly important as it stores your workflow files (.json), ensuring you don't lose your work when updating ComfyUI or rebuilding the container. Other volumes like models, input, and output can be shared between different AI tools for a more integrated setup.

⁠Usage

Build and run the container:

make
docker run -d --gpus all -p 8188:8188 \
    -v ./user:/comfyui/user \
    -v ./models:/comfyui/models \
    -v ./output:/comfyui/output \
    -v ./input:/comfyui/input \
    --name comfyui jamesbrink/comfyui

Optionally run container on host network:

docker run -d --gpus all --network=host \
    -v ./user:/comfyui/user \
    -v ./models:/comfyui/models \
    -v ./output:/comfyui/output \
    -v ./input:/comfyui/input \
    --name comfyui jamesbrink/comfyui

⁠Shared Model Setup

If you want to share models between ComfyUI and other tools like Fooocus, you can create a centralized directory structure:

mkdir -p ~/AI/ComfyUI/user           # Workflows and workspace settings
mkdir -p ~/AI/Models/StableDiffusion # Shared models
mkdir -p ~/AI/Output                 # Generated images
mkdir -p ~/AI/Input                  # Input data

Then run the container with these mapped volumes:

docker run -d --gpus all --network=host \
    -v ~/AI/ComfyUI/user:/comfyui/user \
    -v ~/AI/Models/StableDiffusion/:/comfyui/models \
    -v ~/AI/Output:/comfyui/output \
    -v ~/AI/Input:/comfyui/input \
    --name comfyui jamesbrink/comfyui
