Using ComfyUI Manager

To make your custom node available through ComfyUI Manager you need to save it as a git repository (generally at github.com) and then submit a Pull Request on the ComfyUI Manager git, in which you have edited custom-node-list.json to add your node. More details. When a user installs the node, ComfyUI Manager will:
1

Git Clone

git clone the repository,
2

Install Python Dependencies

install the pip dependencies listed in the custom node repository under requirements.txt (if present),
pip install -r requirements.txt
As is always the case with pip, it is possible that your node requirements will be in conflict with other custom nodes. Don’t make your requirements.txt any more restrictive than they need to be.
3

Run Install Script

execute install.py, if it is present in the custom node repository.
install.py is executed from the root path of the custom node

​
ComfyUI Manager files

As indicated above, there are a number of files and scripts that ComfyUI Manager will use to manage the lifecycle of a custom node. These are all optional.
  • requirements.txt - Python dependencies as mentioned above
  • install.py, uninstall.py - executed when the custom node is installed or uninstalled
    Users can just delete the directory, so you can’t rely on uninstall.py being run
  • disable.py, enable.py - executed when a custom node is disabled or re-enabled
    enable.py is only run when a disabled node is re-enabled - it should just reverse anything done in disable.py
    Disabled custom node subdirectory have .disabled appended to their names, and Comfy ignores these modules
  • node_list.json - only required if the custom nodes pattern of NODE_CLASS_MAPPINGS is not conventional.
See the ComfyUI Manager guide for official details.
