ComfyUI Download System

A simple system for automatically downloading ComfyUI output images to Dropbox (or any rclone destination) and tracking which files have been downloaded.

Features

• Automatically downloads new images from ComfyUI's output folder
• Runs every 10 seconds via cron
• Tracks downloaded images to avoid duplicates
• Simple commands to manage the download system

Requirements

• RunPod container with ComfyUI installed
• rclone configured with a Dropbox remote (or other destination)
• cron installed in the container

Installation

1. Clone this repository to your RunPod container:

git clone https://github.com/rafstahelin/comfy-download.git
cd comfy-download

2. Run the setup script:

chmod +x setup.sh
./setup.sh

3. Start the download system:

start

Commands

After installation, you'll have the following commands available:

Command	Description
start	Start the automatic download system
stop	Stop the automatic download system
status	Show current download statistics
run	Run a download check manually once
reset	Clean up duplicate entries in the log file
dl-help	Display command reference

How It Works

• The system uses cron to run a check every minute
• Each check runs 6 times with a 10-second pause, ensuring new images are detected quickly
• Images are downloaded from /workspace/ComfyUI/output/YYYY-MM-DD/ to your configured destination
• Downloaded files are tracked in a log file to avoid re-downloading

Customization

You can modify the scripts to change:

• The source directory path (default: /workspace/ComfyUI/output/YYYY-MM-DD/)
• The destination path (default: dbx:/studio/ai/output/output-eagle.library/output-eagle)
• The check frequency (default: every 10 seconds)

Edit the download_images.sh file to change these settings.

Logs

Logs are stored in the following locations:

• Download log: /workspace/ComfyUI/logs/downloaded_YYYY-MM-DD.log
• Cron execution log: /workspace/ComfyUI/logs/cron.log

Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues:

1. Check if cron is running: service cron status
2. Verify your rclone configuration: rclone config show
3. Check the logs: cat /workspace/ComfyUI/logs/cron.log
4. Run the download script manually: run
5. Reset the log file if there are duplicates: reset
