# ComfyUI Model Downloader
Download models from Hugging Face and Civitai into ComfyUI model folders. Use one YAML config and run on any machine (local, server, rented GPU).
## Setup
```bash
git clone <repo-url>
cd model_downloader
python -m venv venv
source venv/bin/activate # Windows: venv\Scripts\activate
pip install -r requirements.txt
```
Copy the example config and edit it:
```bash
cp config.example.yaml config.yaml
```
Edit `config.yaml`: set `huggingface_token`, `civitai_token`, `comfyui_base_dir`, and add model URLs under the right keys. **Do not commit `config.yaml`** (it is gitignored).
## Run
```bash
python -m model_downloader
```
- `--config PATH` config file (default: `config.yaml` in current directory).
- `--dry-run` print what would be downloaded and where; no writes.
- `--only TYPE ...` only process these model types (e.g. `--only diffusion_models loras`).
## Config keys and ComfyUI folders
| Config key | ComfyUI subdir (under `comfyui_base_dir/models/`) |
|--------------------|--------------------------------------------------|
| diffusion_models | diffusion_models |
| text_encoders | text_encoders |
| vaes | vae |
| upscale_models | upscale_models |
| loras | loras |
Tokens stay in your local `config.yaml` only; keep them out of git.
## Idempotency
Same URL and model type always write to the same path (`comfyui_base_dir/models/<subdir>/<filename>`). Re-running is safe: existing model files are skipped (no re-download, no overwrite).
