Features

• Loads prompts from prompts.yaml and outputs positive and negative prompts in String format.
• Writes new prompts to the yaml file.
• Modifies existing prompts registered in the yaml file.

Installation

If you have ComfyUI-Manager installed:

1. Click Manager -> Install via Git URL in the main menu.
2. Paste the URL into the text box that appears at the top of the window and press OK:
   https://github.com/NakamuraShippo/ComfyUI-PromptList
3. After installation is complete, restart ComfyUI.

If you don't have ComfyUI-Manager installed:

1. Navigate to the ComfyUI custom node directory. (Usually ComfyUI/custom_nodes/)
2. Clone this repository:
   git clone https://github.com/NakamuraShippo/ComfyUI-PromptList
3. Restart ComfyUI.

Usage

Right-click on the workspace -> Add node -> prompt -> Prompt List to add the node.

The node has the following inputs:
selection: A list of prompts registered in prompts.yaml. Outputs the prompt for the selected item.

If the following items are filled in, the prompt from the selection will not be output, and the entered prompt will be output instead:
Prompt Name: New prompt name or name of the prompt to update
Positive Prompt: Content of the positive prompt
Negative Prompt: Content of the negative prompt

The entered prompt name and prompts will be saved in ComfyUI\user\PromptList\prompts.yaml.
If prompts.yaml is not found, an empty prompts.yaml will be automatically created.
If you change a prompt using the same Prompt Name, it will overwrite the prompt in prompts.yaml.

prompts.yaml format

#prompts.yaml
  prompt_name_1:
    positive: Positive prompt content
    negative: Negative prompt content
  prompt_name_2:
    positive: Another positive prompt
    negative: Another negative prompt

We have prepared a spreadsheet for editing prompts.yaml.

Preparation before using the spreadsheet

1. File -> Make a copy -> Edit to your preferred file name and click "Make a copy"
2. After a while, "Export" will appear to the right of Help. Click Export -> Export as YAML
3. Authentication required window -> OK
4. Select your Google account and log in (if a warning appears: Advanced -> Go to prompt.yaml export (unsafe) -> Allow)

How to fill in the spreadsheet

"prompt name" cell = prompt name
Cell to the right of "positive" = positive prompt
Cell to the right of "negative" = negative prompt
Enter each of these. (The white cells in columns A and C are the input cells)

If you want to increase the number of items to register, please use autofill.

Note
Do not edit cells filled with gray.

Exporting YAML

1. After a while, "Export" will appear to the right of Help. Click Export/Import -> Export -> Export complete
2. prompts.yaml will be output to your Google Drive.

Importing YAML

1. Place prompts.yaml in the same folder as the spreadsheet
2. Click Export/Import -> Import -> Import complete

Recommended usage

If you make the following settings before exporting the yaml, you can save the trouble of moving files:

1. Install Google Drive
2. Set up a symbolic link to prompts.yaml in the folder of this custom node
3. When prompts.yaml in Google Drive is updated, the file on your desktop will also be synchronized in about 10 seconds.
4. Success!

About symbolic links (for those who don't know)

It's similar to a shortcut, but the crucial difference is that it can behave as if it has a real existence. Open the command prompt and execute the following command, replacing the links with the appropriate locations for your environment:

Windows
mklink Full_path_of_ComfyUI\user\PromptList\prompts.yaml Path_to_the_prompts.yaml_file_in_GoogleDrive
Mac/Linux
ln -s Path_to_the_prompts.yaml_file_in_GoogleDrive Full_path_of_ComfyUI\user\PromptList\prompts.yaml

Example
mklink E:\ComfyUI_windows_portable\ComfyUI\custom_nodes\ComfyUI-PromptList\prompts.yaml Y:\My Drive\ComfyUI-PromptList\prompts.yaml

For Windows, if you introduce an official app called PowerToys, you can easily set it up with a right-click. Give it a try!

Notes

The prompt list is saved in the prompts.yaml file. If you edit, add new prompts, or make changes, please press Refresh in the ComfyUI main menu to reflect the changes.
