bulkai

bulkai is a tool to generate AI images in bulk

Features

bulkai works with the following AI image generators:

• Midjourney
• Bluewillow

bulkai automates the following tasks:

• Send prompts to the AI
• Upscale the generated images
• Or crop the preview images if upscale is disabled
• Optionally, generate variations of the generated images
• Download the generated images
• Create thumbnails
• Generate a HTML album page with the generated images

Installation

You can use the golang binary to install bulkai:

go install github.com/igolaizola/bulkai/cmd/bulkai@latest

Or you can download the binary from the releases

Usage

1. Create session (only for the first time)

You first need to create a session file with the discord credentials and other information retrieved from your browser. bulkai needs this to:

• Be able to login to Discord
• Mimic the browser and avoid being detected as a bot

Use the bulkai create-session command to create the session file. It will open a chrome window and you will need to login to Discord.

2. Configure settings

You can configure different settings. See the parameters section to see all available options: Parameters

Using a configuration file in YAML format:

bulkai generate --config bulkai.yaml

bulkai.yaml

bot: midjourney
album: cute-animals
download: true
upscale: true
variation: false
thumbnail: true
suffix: " --ar 3:2"
prompt:
  - cute-animals-1.txt
  - cute-animals-2.txt
  - cute monkey dancing on a tree

2. Launch

Use the bulkai generate command to launch the generation. Images will be downloaded to the album name in the output directory specified in the configuration file. You will be able to see the progress in the console. This task can take a long time depending on the number of images to generate.

You can press Ctrl+C to stop the generation. If you want to resume the generation, just press launch the command again using the same settings and album name. Prompt field will be ignored and the prompts will be loaded from the album.

Parameters

Here is a list of all the parameters available to run the image generation.

• bot (string): Name of the bot to use. Available options are: midjourney and bluewillow. (required)
• download (bool): Download the generated images. (default: true)
• upscale (bool): Upscale the generated images. (default: true) If you disable this the generation will be much faster. It will directly use the preview images generated by the AI. In midjourney for example, the preview images are 256x256.
• variation (bool): Generate variations of the generated images. (default: false) This will generate 4 extra variations of each prompt. The generation will be much slower.
• thumbnail (bool): Generate thumbnails of the generated images. (default: true) This operation is done locally, it will improve the performance of the HTML page.
• suffix (string): Suffix to add to all prompts. (optional)
• prefix (string): Prefix to add to all prompts. (optional)
• prompt (list): List of prompts to use. (required) If you want include prompts from a file, just write the path to the file.
• album (string): Name of the album. (optional, but recommended) If unset a time based name will be used.
• output (string): Path to the output directory. (default: ./output)
• session (string): Path to the session file. (default: ./session.json)
• channel (string): ID of the channel to use in the form guild-id/channel-id. (optional) You can obtain it from the URL of the channel in discord web. If unset the DM chat with the bot will be used.
• proxy (string): Proxy to use in HTTP calls. (optional)
• concurrency (int): How many prompts can be running at the same time. (optional) If unset the maximum for the bot will be used.
• wait (duration): Time to wait between prompts, for example 5s. (optional) There is already a rate limit implemented to avoid sending too many requests to discord.
• debug (bool): Enable debug mode. (default: false)

FAQ

Do I need to generate a new session every time I want to use use bulkai?

No, you only need to generate a new session if you want to use a different account.

Do I need to enable relaxed mode?

It is up to you to use relaxed or fast mode. Just keep in mind that if you use fast mode with a lot of prompts, you may consume your quota very quickly.

I'm getting couldn't find dm channel for bot error

You must manually join the discord server of the bot you want to use. Then you have to open a DM chat with the bot. Alternatively, you can specify the channel to use in the form guild/channel. The bot must be available in the channel you specify.

• bwmarrin/discordgo to retrieve events from Discord.
• Danny-Dasilva/CycleTLS to mimic the browser and avoid being detected as a bot.
