Prerequisites

To get started with Lauramdg's Cognitive Actions, you'll need an API key and a basic understanding of making API calls.

Generate Image with Inpainting

The "Generate Image with Inpainting" action empowers developers to create high-quality images by either inpainting existing images or generating images from scratch based on descriptive prompts. This action is particularly useful for users looking to manipulate specific areas of an image or generate entirely new visuals based on detailed descriptions.

Input Requirements

  • Prompt: A descriptive text that guides the image generation process (required).
  • Image: An input image for inpainting or image-to-image generation (optional).
  • Mask: An image mask specifically for inpainting mode (optional).
  • Width and Height: Dimensions of the generated image, applicable when using a custom aspect ratio (optional).
  • Output Format: The format for the generated image, such as webp, jpg, or png.
  • Output Count: Number of images to generate (1-4).
  • Output Quality: Quality of the output images, from 0 (lowest) to 100 (highest).
  • Inference Model: Choose between "dev" or "schnell" models for image generation.
  • Inference Steps: Number of steps for denoising; more steps yield more detailed images.
  • Prompt Strength: Determines how strongly the prompt influences the generated image.
  • Guidance Scale: Controls how closely the image adheres to the prompt.

For example, a developer might send the following input:

{
  "image": "https://replicate.delivery/pbxt/LsXH96yXuMQutuHdDa8zlPohfGe9vMd16okB8TjBTlXqe2Iz/Screenshot_20241029_123657_Instagram.jpg",
  "prompt": "LauraMDG A beautiful brunette with long hairs, busty girl taking a selfie with an iphone 12 pro",
  "imageFormat": "jpg",
  "outputCount": 1,
  "outputQuality": 90,
  "inferenceModel": "dev",
  "inferenceSteps": 28,
  "promptStrength": 0.46,
  "imageAspectRatio": "1:1",
  "mainLoraStrength": 0.89,
  "additionalLoraStrength": 1,
  "diffusionGuidanceScale": 3.5
}

Expected Output

The action will return a high-quality image generated based on the provided prompt and parameters. An example output URL might look like this:
