Droombot

Droombot is a discord bot for generating images from text prompts.

At current, it uses an API call to Stability.ai to generate images. A future version may support running Stable Diffusion directly.

Installing

:zap: Note: this step is not necessary if using a Container (see below)

Run the following, preferably in a virtual environment, to install droombot

pip install droombot

How to run

:zap: Note: this step is not necessary if using a Container (see below)

Configure your environment (see configuration options below), and make sure a redis instance is running on your network (we recommend using a container).

To start the bot, run the following in the virtual environment:

droombot server

To start a worker, run the following in the virtual environment

droombot worker

How to use in discord

Use the /prompt command to type your prompt. This by default uses whatever model Stability AI now considers its "core". You can also select Stable Diffusion 3 and Stable Diffusion 3 Turbo models by appending -m sd3 or -m sd3-turbo to your prompt.

You can give individual words in your prompt more some weight by doing something like the following; A table with (red:0.5) raspberries and (purple:0.5) blueberries.

Components

Droombot consists of two components:

1. The server, this handles interaction with the user. I.e., it handles incoming prompts and replies. It provides the Discord bot users interact with.
2. One or more workers. These handle the actual image generation.

Redis is used as a message broker between the server and the worker(s).

Configuration

All configuration is handled via environment variables. See the following table

Container

Droombot can run as a container. For a howto using Docker or Podman, see the container docs.

Future plans

1. Expose additional options, such as multiple images and model selection.
2. Ability to run Stable Diffusion directly, with a separate worker class
3. Prompt translations, allowing users to use prompts in their own language.
