How to generate images from text in a few lines of Python with Diffusers

Load a pretrained pipeline from the Hub with from_pretrained and generate images from prompts.

Short answer: Install with pip install --upgrade diffusers[torch]; then load a pipeline: DiffusionPipeline.from_pretrained("stable-diffusion-v1-5/stable-diffusion-v1-5", dtype=torch.float16); Move it to the GPU with pipeline.to("cuda"). All steps.

Who it is forA developer adding image generation to a script, app or notebook.

The problemWiring up a diffusion model by hand means dealing with tokenizers, schedulers and model weights separately.

The outcomeGenerated images from any of thousands of Hub checkpoints using one pipeline object.

What you need first

  • Python in a virtual environment
  • PyTorch; install with `pip install --upgrade diffusers[torch]` or conda
  • An NVIDIA GPU for the README examples, which call to cuda; Apple Silicon has its own guide

Steps

  1. Install with pip install --upgrade diffusers[torch]
  2. Load a pipeline: DiffusionPipeline.from_pretrained("stable-diffusion-v1-5/stable-diffusion-v1-5", dtype=torch.float16)
  3. Move it to the GPU with pipeline.to("cuda")
  4. Call the pipeline with a prompt such as An image of a squirrel in Picasso style and take images[0]
  5. Browse the Hub for other checkpoints and swap the model id

Prompt for your agent

Using huggingface/diffusers, write a script that loads <model id> with DiffusionPipeline in float16 on CUDA, generates 4 images for <prompt> with fixed seeds, and saves them as PNG files in <folder>.

Caveat. Check each model's license on the Hub before using its images commercially; some checkpoints restrict use.
