EasyKSampler(samplerSimple)

Description

EasyKSampler is a streamlined sampling node for the EasyUse pipeline. It accepts an existing PIPE_LINE, runs the sampler using the settings and data carried in that pipe, and outputs both the updated pipeline and the generated image. It is useful when you want a compact sampler step in a pipeline without exposing the full set of low-level sampler controls.

Because this node exposes no separate seed, steps, CFG, or sampler name widgets, the actual sampling behavior is determined by the contents of the pipe passed into it.

Inputs

pipe

• Required: Yes
• Type: PIPE_LINE

The pipeline object that carries the sampling context, including model, conditioning, latent, and related settings. This is the main input to the node and is also returned as the first output after sampling.

image_output

• Required: Yes
• Type: COMBO
• Default: Preview
• Options: Hide, Preview, Save, Hide&Save, Sender, Sender&Save, None

Controls how the generated image is handled after sampling:

• Hide — do not display the image in the UI.
• Preview — display the generated image in the UI.
• Save — save the generated image to the output directory.
• Hide&Save — save the image without displaying it in the UI.
• Sender — send the image to another node or destination using the link_id input.
• Sender&Save — send the image using link_id and also save it to disk.
• None — disable preview, saving, and sending for the image output.

link_id

• Required: Yes
• Type: INT

Integer identifier used when image_output is set to Sender or Sender&Save. It should match the link ID expected by the receiving image sender node.

save_prefix

• Required: Yes
• Type: STRING
• Default: ComfyUI

The filename prefix used when saving the generated image. This applies when image_output is set to Save, Hide&Save, or Sender&Save.

model

• Required: No
• Type: MODEL

An optional model input. When connected, it overrides the model contained in the pipe. When left unconnected, the model from the pipeline is used.

Outputs

PIPE_LINE

• Type: PIPE_LINE

The updated pipeline after sampling. It can be passed to downstream EasyUse nodes for further processing.

IMAGE

• Type: IMAGE

The generated image batch. Depending on the image_output setting, this output may be displayed, saved, sent, or empty.

Usage Notes

• Use Preview for quick visual checks and Save or Hide&Save when you need a saved output file.
• The link_id input is only relevant for Sender and Sender&Save; other image_output modes ignore it.
• save_prefix is only used when saving the image; it has no effect on preview-only modes.
• The optional model input is convenient when you want to sample with a different model than the one already stored in the pipe, without rebuilding the pipeline.
