# `cm-cli`: ComfyUI-Manager CLI `cm-cli` is a tool that allows you to use various functions of ComfyUI-Manager from the command line without launching ComfyUI. ``` -= ComfyUI-Manager CLI (V2.24) =- python cm-cli.py [OPTIONS] OPTIONS: [install|reinstall|uninstall|update|disable|enable|fix] node_name ... ?[--channel ] ?[--mode [remote|local|cache]] [update|disable|enable|fix] all ?[--channel ] ?[--mode [remote|local|cache]] [simple-show|show] [installed|enabled|not-installed|disabled|all|snapshot|snapshot-list] ?[--channel ] ?[--mode [remote|local|cache]] save-snapshot ?[--output ] restore-snapshot ?[--pip-non-url] ?[--pip-non-local-url] ?[--pip-local-url] cli-only-mode [enable|disable] restore-dependencies clear ``` ## How To Use? * You can execute it via `python cm-cli.py`. * For example, if you want to update all custom nodes: * In the ComfyUI-Manager directory, you can execute the command `python cm-cli.py update all`. * If running from the ComfyUI directory, you can specify the path to cm-cli.py like this: `python custom_nodes/ComfyUI-Manager/cm-cli.py update all`. ## Prerequisite * It must be run in the same Python environment as the one running ComfyUI. * If using a venv, you must run it with the venv activated. * If using a portable version, and you are in the directory with the run_nvidia_gpu.bat file, you should execute the command as follows: `.\python_embeded\python.exe ComfyUI\custom_nodes\ComfyUI-Manager\cm-cli.py update all` * The path for ComfyUI can be set with the COMFYUI_PATH environment variable. If omitted, a warning message will appear, and the path will be set relative to the installed location of ComfyUI-Manager: ``` WARN: The `COMFYUI_PATH` environment variable is not set. Assuming `custom_nodes/ComfyUI-Manager/../../` as the ComfyUI path. ``` ## Features ### 1. --channel, --mode * For viewing information and managing custom nodes, you can set the information database through --channel and --mode. * For instance, executing the command `python cm-cli.py update all --channel recent --mode remote` will operate based on the latest information from remote rather than local data embedded in the current ComfyUI-Manager repo and will only target the list in the recent channel. * --channel, --mode are only available with the commands `simple-show, show, install, uninstall, update, disable, enable, fix`. ### 2. Viewing Management Information `[simple-show|show] [installed|enabled|not-installed|disabled|all|snapshot|snapshot-list] ?[--channel ] ?[--mode [remote|local|cache]]` * `[show|simple-show]` - `show` provides detailed information, while `simple-show` displays information more simply. Executing a command like `python cm-cli.py show installed` will display detailed information about the installed custom nodes. ``` -= ComfyUI-Manager CLI (V2.24) =- FETCH DATA from: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ltdrdata/ComfyUI-Manager/main/custom-node-list.json [ ENABLED ] ComfyUI-Manager (author: Dr.Lt.Data) [ ENABLED ] ComfyUI-Impact-Pack (author: Dr.Lt.Data) [ ENABLED ] ComfyUI-Inspire-Pack (author: Dr.Lt.Data) [ ENABLED ] ComfyUI_experiments (author: comfyanonymous) [ ENABLED ] ComfyUI-SAI_API (author: Stability-AI) [ ENABLED ] stability-ComfyUI-nodes (author: Stability-AI) [ ENABLED ] comfyui_controlnet_aux (author: Fannovel16) [ ENABLED ] ComfyUI-Frame-Interpolation (author: Fannovel16) [ DISABLED ] ComfyUI-Loopchain (author: Fannovel16) ``` Using a command like `python cm-cli.py simple-show installed` will simply display information about the installed custom nodes. ``` -= ComfyUI-Manager CLI (V2.24) =- FETCH DATA from: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ltdrdata/ComfyUI-Manager/main/custom-node-list.json ComfyUI-Manager ComfyUI-Impact-Pack ComfyUI-Inspire-Pack ComfyUI_experiments ComfyUI-SAI_API stability-ComfyUI-nodes comfyui_controlnet_aux ComfyUI-Frame-Interpolation ComfyUI-Loopchain ``` `[installed|enabled|not-installed|disabled|all|snapshot|snapshot-list]` * `enabled`, `disabled`: Shows nodes that have been enabled or disabled among the installed custom nodes. * `installed`: Shows all nodes that have been installed, regardless of whether they are enabled or disabled. * `not-installed`: Shows a list of custom nodes that have not been installed. * `all`: Shows a list of all custom nodes. * `snapshot`: Displays snapshot information of the currently installed custom nodes. When viewed with `show`, it is displayed in JSON format, and with `simple-show`, it is displayed simply, along with the commit hash. * `snapshot-list`: Shows a list of snapshot files stored in ComfyUI-Manager/snapshots. ### 3. Managing Custom Nodes `[install|reinstall|uninstall|update|disable|enable|fix] node_name ... ?[--channel ] ?[--mode [remote|local|cache]]` * You can apply management functions by listing the names of custom nodes, such as `python cm-cli.py install ComfyUI-Impact-Pack ComfyUI-Inspire-Pack ComfyUI_experiments`. * The names of the custom nodes are as shown by `show` and are the names of the git repositories. (Plans are to update the use of nicknames in the future.) `[update|disable|enable|fix] all ?[--channel ] ?[--mode [remote|local|cache]]` * The `update, disable, enable, fix` functions can be specified for all. * Detailed Operations * `install`: Installs the specified custom nodes. * `reinstall`: Removes and then reinstalls the specified custom nodes. * `uninstall`: Uninstalls the specified custom nodes. * `update`: Updates the specified custom nodes. * `disable`: Disables the specified custom nodes. * `enable`: Enables the specified custom nodes. * `fix`: Attempts to fix dependencies for the specified custom nodes. ### 4. Snapshot Management * `python cm-cli.py save-snapshot [--output ]`: Saves the current snapshot. * With `--output`, you can save a file in .yaml format to any specified path. * `python cm-cli.py restore-snapshot `: Restores to the specified snapshot. * If a file exists at the snapshot path, that snapshot is loaded. * If no file exists at the snapshot path, it is implicitly assumed to be in ComfyUI-Manager/snapshots. * `--pip-non-url`: Restore for pip packages registered on PyPI. * `--pip-non-local-url`: Restore for pip packages registered at web URLs. * `--pip-local-url`: Restore for pip packages specified by local paths. ### 5. CLI Only Mode You can set whether to use ComfyUI-Manager solely via CLI. `cli-only-mode [enable|disable]` * This mode can be used if you want to restrict the use of ComfyUI-Manager through the GUI for security or policy reasons. * When CLI only mode is enabled, ComfyUI-Manager is loaded in a very restricted state, the internal web API is disabled, and the Manager button is not displayed in the main menu. ### 6. Dependency Restoration `restore-dependencies` * This command can be used if custom nodes are installed under the `ComfyUI/custom_nodes` path but their dependencies are not installed. * It is useful when starting a new cloud instance, like colab, where dependencies need to be reinstalled and installation scripts re-executed. * It can also be utilized if ComfyUI is reinstalled and only the custom_nodes path has been backed up and restored. ### 7. Clear In the GUI, installations, updates, or snapshot restorations are scheduled to execute the next time ComfyUI is launched. The `clear` command clears this scheduled state, ensuring no pre-execution actions are applied.
