Use ComfyUI manager

Before we start with examples, you should install the ComfyUI manager by ltdrdata. It’s a custom node that makes it easy to manage all your ComfyUI custom nodes and weights.

The simplest way to install ComfyUI-Manager is to clone the repository into your custom nodes directory: ComfyUI/custom_nodes.

cd ComfyUI/custom_nodes
git clone https://github.com/ltdrdata/ComfyUI-Manager.git

You should now have a directory called ComfyUI/custom_nodes/ComfyUI-Manager.

If you’re installing on Linux there are a few extra steps. See the ComfyUI-Manager README for more details.

Once you’ve installed ComfyUI manager, it’s now very easy to install models and nodes. From the manager menu you can:

  • install custom nodes
  • install missing custom nodes (very useful when using someone else’s workflow)
  • install models (checkpoints, loras, etc.)

You can also use the manager to:

  • update all custom nodes
  • update ComfyUI
