The Diffusers library by Hugging Face is your gateway to leveraging state-of-the-art pretrained diffusion models. Whether you’re interested in generating vivid images, creating audio, or even modeling 3D structures, this library has got you covered. In this article, we’ll walk through the setup process and demonstrate how you can harness the power of diffusion models with just a few lines of code.

Why Use the Diffusers Library?

The library emphasizes:

• Usability over performance: Get results without managing complex processes.
• Simple over easy: Focus on essential features rather than superficial ease of use.
• Customizability over abstractions: Tweak the underlying components as per your requirements.

Installation

To get started, you’ll need to install the library in a virtual environment. Here’s how you can do this:

Using PyTorch

With pip:

pip install --upgrade diffusers[torch]

With conda:

conda install -c conda-forge diffusers

Using Flax

With pip:

pip install --upgrade diffusers[flax]

Special Note for Apple Silicon (M1/M2)

Please refer to the guide for how to utilize Stable Diffusion on Apple Silicon devices.

Quickstart Guide to Generate Outputs

Getting started with generating images from text using the Diffusers library is simple! Use the from_pretrained method to load any pretrained diffusion model. Here’s an analogy to help you understand:

Imagine you have a magical painting tool (the library), and you want to create a masterpiece based on a string of words (text prompt). Instead of starting from scratch, you pick up a premade canvas (pretrained model) that already has the outline of a great painting. You then just need to add specific colors and details (run the code) to bring your vision to life!

Code Example

Using Python, create an image from text with just a few lines of code:

from diffusers import DiffusionPipeline
import torch

pipeline = DiffusionPipeline.from_pretrained("stable-diffusion-v1-5", torch_dtype=torch.float16)
pipeline.to("cuda")
image = pipeline("An image of a squirrel in Picasso style.").images[0]

Now, imagine directing our magical tool with just a simple instruction and getting the result almost instantaneously!
