# FLUX.1 Fine-tuning with LoRA

This project demonstrates fine-tuning the FLUX.1-dev 11B model using Dreambooth LoRA (Low-Rank Adaptation) for custom image generation. The demo includes training on custom concepts and inference through both command-line scripts and ComfyUI. 

## Results

Fine-tuning FLUX.1 with custom concepts enables the model to generate images with your specific objects and styles:

## Overview

The project includes:
- **FLUX.1-dev Fine-tuning**: LoRA-based fine-tuning using sd-scripts
- **Custom Concept Training**: Train on "tjtoy" toy and "sparkgpu" GPU
- **Command-line Inference**: Generate images using trained LoRA weights
- **ComfyUI Integration**: Intuitive workflows for inference with custom models
- **Docker Support**: Complete containerized environment

## Training

### 1. Build Docker Image by providing `HF_TOKEN`

```bash
# Build the Docker image (this will download FLUX models automatically)
docker build -f Dockerfile.train --build-arg HF_TOKEN=$HF_TOKEN -t flux-training .
```

**Note**: The Docker build automatically downloads the required FLUX models:
- `flux1-dev.safetensors` (~23GB)
- `ae.safetensors` (~335MB) 
- `clip_l.safetensors` (~246MB)
- `t5xxl_fp16.safetensors` (~9.8GB)

### 2. Run Docker Container

```bash
# Run with GPU support and mount current directory
docker run -it \
    --gpus all \
    --ipc=host \
    --ulimit memlock=-1 \
    --ulimit stack=67108864 \
    --net=host \
    flux-training
```

### 3. Train the Model

```bash
# Inside the container, navigate to sd-scripts and run training
cd /workspace/sd-scripts
sh train.sh
```

### 4. Run Inference
The `inference.sh` script generates 9 images with different seeds.

After training, you can generate images using the learned concepts. For example:
- `"tjtoy toy"` - Your custom toy concept
- `"sparkgpu gpu"` - Your custom GPU concept
- Combine them: `"tjtoy toy holding sparkgpu gpu"`

```bash
# Generate images using the trained LoRA
sh inference.sh
```

### Dataset Structure

The training data is organized in the `data/` directory:

```
data/
├── data.toml              # Training configuration
├── tjtoy/                 # Custom toy concept images (6 images)
│   ├── 1.png
│   ├── 2.jpg
│   ├── 3.png
│   ├── 4.png
│   ├── 5.png
│   └── 6.png
└── sparkgpu/              # Custom GPU concept images (7 images)
    ├── 1.jpeg
    ├── 2.jpg
    ├── 3.jpg
    ├── 4.jpg
    ├── 6.png
    ├── 7.png
    └── 8.png
```

### Training Parameters

Key training settings in `train.sh`:
- **Network Type**: LoRA with dimension 256
- **Learning Rate**: 1.0 (with Prodigy optimizer)
- **Epochs**: 100 (saves every 25 epochs)
- **Resolution**: 1024x1024
- **Mixed Precision**: bfloat16
- **Optimizations**: Torch compile, gradient checkpointing, cached latents

## ComfyUI

ComfyUI provides an intuitive visual interface for using your fine-tuned LoRA models. The beauty of LoRA fine-tuning is that you can easily add your custom concepts to any FLUX workflow with just a single node.

### 1. Build Docker Image by providing `HF_TOKEN`

```bash
# Build the Docker image (this will download FLUX models automatically)
docker build -f Dockerfile.inference --build-arg HF_TOKEN=$HF_TOKEN -t flux-comfyui .
```

### 2. Run Docker Container

```bash
# Run with GPU support and mount current directory
docker run -it \
    --gpus all \
    --ipc=host \
    --ulimit memlock=-1 \
    --ulimit stack=67108864 \
    --net=host \
    flux-comfyui
```

### 3. Running ComfyUI

```bash
# Start ComfyUI server
cd /workspace/ComfyUI
python main.py
```

Access ComfyUI at `http://localhost:8188`

### 4. ComfyUI Workflow Example

![ComfyUI Workflow](flux_assets/comfyui_workflow.png)
*ComfyUI workflow showing how easily LoRA can be integrated into the base FLUX model*

The workflow demonstrates the simplicity of LoRA integration:
1. **Load Checkpoint**: Base FLUX.1-dev model remains unchanged
2. **Load LoRA**: Simply add your trained LoRA file (`flux_dreambooth.safetensors`)
3. **Adjust Strength**: Fine-tune the influence of your custom concepts (0.8-1.2 typically works well)
4. **Generate**: Use your custom trigger words (`tjtoy toy`, `sparkgpu gpu`) in prompts

This modular approach means you can:
- **Preserve base model quality**: The original FLUX capabilities remain intact
- **Easy experimentation**: Quickly swap different LoRA models or adjust strengths
- **Combine concepts**: Mix multiple LoRA models or use them with other techniques
- **Minimal storage**: LoRA files are typically 100-200MB vs 23GB+ for full models

### ComfyUI Model Structure

Organize models in ComfyUI as follows:

```
ComfyUI/models/
├── checkpoints/
│   └── flux1-dev.safetensors          # Main FLUX model
├── vae/
│   └── ae.safetensors                 # FLUX VAE
├── clip/
│   ├── clip_l.safetensors             # CLIP text encoder
│   └── t5xxl_fp16.safetensors         # T5 text encoder
└── loras/
    └── flux_dreambooth.safetensors    # Your trained LoRA
```

## Custom Concepts

The fine-tuning process teaches FLUX.1 to understand two custom concepts:

### TJToy Concept
- **Trigger phrase**: `tjtoy toy`
- **Training images**: 6 high-quality images of custom toy figures
- **Use case**: Generate images featuring the specific toy character in various scenes

### SparkGPU Concept  
- **Trigger phrase**: `sparkgpu gpu`
- **Training images**: 7 images of custom GPU hardware
- **Use case**: Generate images featuring the specific GPU design in different contexts

### Combined Usage
You can combine both concepts in prompts:
- `"tjtoy toy holding sparkgpu gpu"`
- `"tjtoy toy standing next to sparkgpu gpu in a data center"`
- `"sparkgpu gpu being examined by tjtoy toy"`
