VQGAN-CLIP-Docker

About

Zero-Shot Text-to-Image Generation VQGAN+CLIP Dockerized

This is a stripped and minimal dependency repository for running locally or in production VQGAN+CLIP.

For a Google Colab notebook see the original repository.

Samples

Setup

Clone this repository and cd inside.

git clone https://github.com/kcosta42/VQGAN-CLIP-Docker.git
cd VQGAN-CLIP-Docker

Download a VQGAN model and put it in the ./models folder.

For GPU capability, make sure you have CUDA installed on your system (tested with CUDA 11.1+).

• 6 GB of VRAM is required to generate 256x256 images.
• 11 GB of VRAM is required to generate 512x512 images.
• 24 GB of VRAM is required to generate 1024x1024 images. (Untested)

Local

Install the Python requirements

python3 -m pip install -r requirements.txt

To know if you can run this on your GPU, the following command must return True.

python3 -c "import torch; print(torch.cuda.is_available());"

Docker

Make sure you have docker and docker-compose installed. nvidia-docker is needed if you want to run this on your GPU through Docker.

A Makefile is provided for ease of use.

make build  # Build the docker image

Usage

Two configuration file are provided ./configs/local.json and ./configs/docker.json. They are ready to go, but you may want to edit them to meet your need. Check the Configuration section to understand each field.

The resulting generations can be found in the ./outputs folder.

GPU

To run locally:

python3 -m scripts.generate -c ./configs/local.json

To run on docker:

make generate

CPU

To run locally:

DEVICE=cpu python3 -m scripts.generate -c ./configs/local.json

To run on docker:

make generate-cpu
