[Feature Request]: Keep original file names for img2img batches

[tip0un3]

Is there an existing issue for this?

What would your feature do ?

Hello,

I couldn't find it in the settings or in the wiki documentation. Wiki custom images filename has no pattern for original filename. Is there a setting I haven't seen to keep the original filenames after batch processing in img2img?

I've seen that this option exists for the extra menu and upscales.

"Images filename pattern" refers to txt2img and img2img

Yes the Wiki : https://github.com/AUTOMATIC1111/stable-diffusion-webui/wiki/Custom-Images-Filename-Name-and-Subdirectory

But I don't see any pattern that refers to the original filename. So the question is, how do I get the same file name in the output as the files in the img2img batch folder? I didn't see any option allowing this except for the extra menu.

Ah, you wanted to read the metadata from the image itself and use pattern like [origin_img_metadata_prompt]? Iirc, this is not implemented at the moment.

No, I make img2img batches for animation. So I have files numbered in frame order: 0001.png, 0002.png, 0003.png, ...

But sometimes I have files in this folder that don't follow each other in name, such as : 0025.png, 0026.png, 0040.png, 0041png, ...

This is deliberate, as the missing frames are in a different folder and I want to batch img2img with a different prompt. Once everything has been processed in img2img, I put the frames together to create my animation.

The problem is that I need to keep the numbering order for my animation in the output, which is why I'm trying to keep the same original file name in the img2img batch output.

As a result, I'm forced to rename my files manually, which takes a lot of time.

[chrme]

Oh, I get it. But this is also not implemented. But as a temporary solution, you can change this line to: filename = f"{i}{os.path.basename(image)[1]}"

or if you have DEV version this line to: filename = f"{i}{image_path.suffix}"

the result will be 0.png, 1.png, 2.png, 3.png etc but existing filenames in the output folder will be overwritten.

I tried your solution but the files are still named with number-seed.png

hello, has your problem been solved? I have the same problem.

[Delerium]

I also would like to know if there is a solution to this? I don't even understand why files are being renamed in the first place if the input and output directories are different. If there is an issue of duplicate files, then perhaps create a new sub-folder for each batch run with a timestamp name, but preserve the original filenames on generation.

Edit: I did find the solution on that page, leaving it here for @zyseu https://github.com/AUTOMATIC1111/stable-diffusion-webui/wiki/Custom-Images-Filename-Name-and-Subdirectory#add--remove-number-to-filename-when-saving

the best I have for this problem is this:

import os
from os import path
import shutil

Source_Path = 'X:\\input'
Destination = 'X:\\output'
#dst_folder = os.mkdir(Destination)


def main():
    for count, filename in enumerate(os.listdir(Source_Path)):
        dst =  str(count).zfill(5) + ".png"
        print(dst)
        # rename all the files
        os.rename(os.path.join(Destination, dst),  os.path.join(Destination, filename))


# Driver Code
if __name__ == '__main__':
    main()

it takes file names from the input directory and writes them in naming order and replacing in output directory set Images filename pattern to [none] and enable replace mode so that it writes files as just numbers but it doesn't work reliable :( sometimes it will rename in the wrong order and it's not off by 1 so I guess automatic doesn't always name output files in the same order as names of input files :(
