BV Node Pack (ComfyUI)

A small collection of quality-of-life nodes for ComfyUI.

⚠️ Note: This pack includes UI logic (JavaScript) for dynamic node updates (also works in Subgraphs/Subflows).

---

Installation

Clone into your ComfyUI custom_nodes folder:

cd ComfyUI/custom_nodes
git clone https://github.com/BlackVortexAI/bv_nodepack.git

Restart ComfyUI and (if needed) hard refresh the browser: Ctrl+F5

Uninstall

• Delete the folder in custom_nodes
• Restart ComfyUI
• Hard refresh the browser (Ctrl+F5)

---

Update

cd ComfyUI/custom_nodes/bv_node_pack
git pull

Restart ComfyUI (recommended).

Nodes / Features

BV Pipe Config

Defines the slot layout (names) for a BV Pipe.

What it does

• Define slot names (1 per line, max 100)
• Outputs a single BV_PIPE object ("the pipe") used downstream

How to use

1. Add BV Pipe Config
2. Enter slot names (one per line)
3. Connect its pipe output to BV Pipe

---

BV Pipe

A config-driven carrier node that forwards one pipe connection while exposing named slots.

What it does

• Shows only the slots defined by the connected BV Pipe Config
• Lets you override individual slots, while everything else passes through

Override example

Subgraph example

BV Subgraph Heading

A UI node that renders a bold header text inside the node. Designed to work well inside Subgraphs/Subflows: when exposed, the header is also rendered on the Subgraph node in the main graph.

Change Header text

Click on the header to change the text.

Inputs

• value (STRING) — the header text
• font_size (INT) — font size used for rendering
• show_divider (BOOLEAN) — optional divider line below the heading

What it does

• Displays a clean header label for visual separation
• Dynamically adjusts its node height to avoid text overlap/clipping
• Optional divider line for stronger section separation

How to use

1. Add BV Subgraph Heading
2. Set the title via value
3. (Optional) increase font_size
4. (Optional) enable show_divider

Subgraph usage

• Place it inside a Subgraph/Subflow and expose the widget input to show the same heading on the Subgraph node.

---

BV Spacer

A UI-only spacer node to add vertical whitespace in your graph or inside Subgraphs/Subflows.

Change Spacer height

Click on the spacer to change the height.

Inputs

• height (INT) — spacer height in pixels
• scale (FLOAT, optional) — multiplier for the height (useful for quick global spacing adjustments)

What it does

• Reserves vertical space without rendering text
• Updates its node height dynamically (also in Subgraphs/Subflows)

How to use

1. Add BV Spacer
2. Adjust height to the desired spacing
3. (Optional) use scale for fine-tuning

---

BV Divider

A UI-only divider node that draws a horizontal line to visually separate sections.

Change Divide thickness

Click on the divider to change the thickness.

Inputs

• thickness (INT) — line thickness
• padding (INT) — left/right padding
• alpha (FLOAT) — line opacity

What it does

• Draws a horizontal separator line
• Dynamically updates when inputs change (also in Subgraphs/Subflows)

How to use

1. Add BV Divider
2. Adjust thickness, padding, and alpha to match your layout

---

Quick Start (Pipe)

1. Add BV Pipe Config and enter names, e.g.:

model
clip
vae
seed
prompt

2. Connect: BV Pipe Config (pipe) → BV Pipe (pipe)

3. Optional: connect something to a slot input to override only that slot.

---

Notes

• Pipes update dynamically (including Subgraphs/Subflows).
• Slot socket IDs stay stable internally (v_001…v_100, out_001…out_100) while labels come from your config.
• UI nodes (Heading / Spacer / Divider) use JavaScript rendering and support being exposed through Subgraphs/Subflows.

Beta Nodes

BV Control Center

The BV Control Center node is used to manage and control groups of nodes at runtime. It allows you to assign a mute or bypass state to multiple graph groups and toggle these states dynamically.

Groups are defined and bundled via a separate configuration dialog. Each configured group is exposed as a boolean control on the BV Control Center node, allowing centralized control of complex graph setups.

The BV Control Center fully supports subgraphs. Its boolean control inputs can be exposed through a subgraph interface, enabling group states to be controlled from outside the subgraph without breaking encapsulation.

Configuration

UI

Select group:

Define status:

Columns are automatically expanded:

After saving the configuration, the BV Control Center Node updates itself.

Here is an example if, for example, Only Preview is active

This node and UI is still in beta! Exposing inputs from a subgraph is still a little buggy.
