The FLUX Prompt Generator is a powerful tool designed to enhance text generation with the help of Groq and Ollama. This guide will walk you through the installation process on Windows, ensuring you have everything you need to get started. Follow this step-by-step tutorial to launch your very own FLUX Prompt Generator!

Prerequisites

  • Python installed on your system (version 3.7 or above recommended).
  • Git installed on your system.
  • Virtual environment setup permissions.

Installation Steps

1. Install Git Large File Storage (LFS)

First, we need Git LFS to manage large files effectively.

git lfs install

2. Clone the FLUX Prompt Generator Repository

Next, clone the repository from Hugging Face.

git clone https://huggingface.co/Aitrepreneur/FLUX-Prompt-Generator

3. Create a Virtual Environment

Inside the cloned FLUX Prompt Generator folder, set up a new virtual environment.

python -m venv env

4. Activate the Virtual Environment

Activate the newly created environment to isolate your setup.

env\Scripts\activate

5. Install Requirements

With the virtual environment active, install the necessary dependencies.

pip install -r requirements.txt

6. Run the Application

Launch the application by running the following command:

python app.py

Configuring API Key for Groq

Open the app.py file and navigate to line 337. You need to replace YOUR-GROQ-API-KEY with your actual API key for Groq.

self.groq_client = Groq(api_key='YOUR-GROQ-API-KEY')

Using Everything Locally

If you prefer to run everything locally, follow these steps:

  1. Download and install Ollama.
  2. Once Ollama is running, download the Llama 3 8B model in a new command line window:
  3. ollama run llama3
  4. Go back to the FLUX Prompt Generator’s Web UI and check the “Use Ollama (local)” checkbox to enable local generation.

Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues during installation or while running the application, here are some common troubleshooting tips:

  • Ensure that you have Python and Git configured correctly and accessible in your system’s PATH.
  • Make sure you activated the virtual environment before installing packages.
  • If you encounter permission errors while installing requirements, try running your command prompt as an administrator.
  • Check for any typos in the API key or installation commands.
  • If issues persist, try reinstalling the dependencies or creating a new virtual environment.
