To set up a Stable Diffusion model is super easy. In your models folder make a file called stablediffusion.yaml, then edit that file with the following. (You can change Linaqruf/animagine-xl with what ever sd-lx model you would like.

name: animagine-xl
parameters:
  model: Linaqruf/animagine-xl
backend: diffusers

# Force CPU usage - set to true for GPU
f16: false
diffusers:
  pipeline_type: StableDiffusionXLPipeline
  cuda: false # Enable for GPU usage (CUDA)
  scheduler_type: dpm_2_a

If you are using docker, you will need to run in the localai folder with the docker-compose.yaml file in it

docker-compose down #windows
docker compose down #linux/mac

Then in your .env file uncomment this line.

COMPEL=0

After that we can reinstall the LocalAI docker VM by running in the localai folder with the docker-compose.yaml file in it

docker-compose up #windows
docker compose up #linux/mac

Then to download and setup the model, Just send in a normal OpenAI request! LocalAI will do the rest!

curl http://localhost:8080/v1/images/generations -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '{
  "prompt": "Two Boxes, 1blue, 1red",
  "size": "256x256"
}'
