Docker Build

AI-Dock + ComfyUI Docker Image

Run ComfyUI in a highly-configurable, cloud-first AI-Dock container.

[!NOTE] These images do not bundle models or third-party configurations. You should use a provisioning script to automatically configure your container. You can find examples, including SD3 & FLUX.1 setup, in config/provisioning.

Documentation

All AI-Dock containers share a common base which is designed to make running on cloud services such as vast.ai as straightforward and user friendly as possible.

Common features and options are documented in the base wiki but any additional features unique to this image will be detailed below.

Version Tags

The :latest tag points to :latest-cuda and will relate to a stable and tested version. There may be more recent builds

Tags follow these patterns:

CUDA
  • :cuda-[x.x.x-base|runtime]-[ubuntu-version]
ROCm
  • :rocm-[x.x.x-runtime]-[ubuntu-version]
CPU
  • :cpu-[ubuntu-version]

Browse ghcr.io for an image suitable for your target environment. Alternatively, view a select range of CUDA and ROCm builds at DockerHub.

Supported Platforms: NVIDIA CUDA, AMD ROCm, CPU

Additional Environment Variables

VariableDescription
AUTO_UPDATEUpdate ComfyUI on startup (default false)
CIVITAI_TOKENAuthenticate download requests from Civitai - Required for gated models
COMFYUI_ARGSStartup arguments. eg. --gpu-only --highvram
COMFYUI_PORT_HOSTComfyUI interface port (default 8188)
COMFYUI_REFGit reference for auto update. Accepts branch, tag or commit hash. Default: latest release
COMFYUI_URLOverride $DIRECT_ADDRESS:port with URL for ComfyUI
HF_TOKENAuthenticate download requests from HuggingFace - Required for gated models (SD3, FLUX, etc.)

See the base environment variables here for more configuration options.

Additional Python Environments

EnvironmentPackages
comfyuiComfyUI and dependencies
apiComfyUI API wrapper and dependencies

The comfyui environment will be activated on shell login.

See the base micromamba environments here.

Additional Services

The following services will be launched alongside the default services provided by the base image.

ComfyUI

The service will launch on port 8188 unless you have specified an override with COMFYUI_PORT_HOST.

You can set startup flags by using variable COMFYUI_ARGS.

To manage this service you can use supervisorctl [start|stop|restart] comfyui.

ComfyUI API Wrapper

This service is available on port 8188 and is a work-in-progress to replace previous serverless handlers which have been depreciated; Old Docker images and sources remain available should you need them.

You can access the api directly at /ai-dock/api/ or you can use the Swager/openAPI playground at /ai-dock/api/docs.

[!NOTE] All services are password protected by default. See the security and environment variables documentation for more information.
