Usage

For Node Authors

Add visible_when metadata to widget definitions:

@classmethod
def INPUT_TYPES(cls):
    return {
        "required": {
            "backend": (["option_a", "option_b", "option_c"], {"default": "option_a"}),
        },
        "optional": {
            "param_for_a": ("FLOAT", {
                "default": 0.1,
                "visible_when": {"backend": ["option_a"]},
            }),
            "param_for_b_and_c": ("INT", {
                "default": 10,
                "visible_when": {"backend": ["option_b", "option_c"]},
            }),
        }
    }

For Custom Node Package Authors

In your prestartup_script.py:

import json
import os

def generate_widget_mappings():
    try:
        from comfy_dynamic_widgets import scan_all_nodes, generate_mappings

        configs = scan_all_nodes()
        if not configs:
            return

        mappings = generate_mappings(configs)

        output_path = os.path.join(
            os.path.dirname(__file__), "web", "js", "mappings.json"
        )
        with open(output_path, "w") as f:
            json.dump(mappings, f, indent=2)

    except ImportError:
        print("comfy-dynamic-widgets not installed")

generate_widget_mappings()

Copy the dynamic_widgets.js from this package to your web/js/ folder and update the mappings path.
