Configuring insightface model paths with yaml file #5280
Description
Expected Behavior
Leaving ComfyUI\models\insightface empty, whereas having an external path to the actual localization of the models, via .yaml file:
comfyui:
base_path: ExternalPath
...
pulid: models/pulid/
insightface: |
models/insightface/models/antelopev2/
models/insightface/models/
models/insightface/
models/
and actually having the models in
ExternalPath\models\insightface
Should be enough to make comfy recognize the insightface models.
Actual Behavior
Despite configuring the yaml file and having the insightface models in the external pointed path,
anytime Insightface is called in a workflow, the file "antelopev2.zip" is downloaded and put inside the original model path: ComfyUI\models\insightface\models
then its unzipped to give:
ComfyUI\models\insightface\models\antelopev2
But it fails to work anyway. (But that besides the points)
The point here is that yaml file configuration would not work, unless I miss configured it?
Steps to Reproduce
install comfyui
install pulid from https://github.com/cubiq/PuLID_ComfyUI
Make sure it is correclty installed with everything needed (insightface etc)
Run the workflow from the examples folder: "pulid_flux_16bit_simple.json"
configure yaml with external path and all the correct insightface models inside the external path.
When the insightface part is reached in the workflow, you will observe an error and downloading of antelopev2.zip.
If you put all the correct models inside the regular path (of comfy \ models etc) you will not have an error.
