A Node.js CLI for generating AI images with Replicate and saving them to disk.
- Easy to install and use.
- Supports multiple models like Flux and SD3. Default is Flux Schnell.
- Saves all the files to disk for you.
- Includes prediction id and a slug of the prompt in the filename.
- Lets you specify an exact prompt, or specify a subject and roll the dice with random promptmaker prompts.
npm i -g aimg
The grab a Replicate API token and set it in your environment:
export REPLICATE_API_TOKEN="r8_..."
All that is required is a prompt:
aimg "cute cat"
This will generate three images of a cute cat and save them to the current directory.
If your prompt is long, you can put it in a file:
aimg "$(cat prompt.md)"
The default model is Flux Schnell, the new state-of-the-art image generation model for the creators of Stable Diffusion.
If you want to use a different model, specify it with the --model
option. Here's an example using SD3:
aimg "cute cat" --model "stability-ai/stable-diffusion-3"
If you want more images, use the --count
option:
aimg "cute cat" --count 20
If you want generate a different semi-random prompt for each image, specify a subject
and it will use promptmaker to generate random prompts:
aimg --subject "a white cat"
If you specify a subject
, then prompt
is ignored.
If you want to save the images to a specific directory, use the --outputdir
option:
aimg "pink cat" --outputdir "pink-cat"
Hee's an example that loads a prompt from a file, generates 100 images with random "pink cat" prompts, and stuffs them in a specific directory:
aimg --subject "pink cat" --count 100 --outputdir "pink-cat"
--count
: Number of images to generate. Defaults to 3--model
: Model to use. Defaults to stability-ai/stable-diffusion-3--subject
: Subject to pass into promptmaker to generate random prompts
