Edouard Durand 3f1ddfed7f Whole chat history with infinite scroll back; fix switching between sidebar tabs
Chat is an append-only chat.jsonl paged by sequence number: the welcome
carries the latest 50 messages and GET /rigshare/api/chat pages further back.
The panel loads older pages as you scroll up, keeps your place, and adds date
dividers. ComfyUI reuses one slot element between custom sidebar tabs, so
each tab now replaces the slot's content instead of appending to it.

Installing

As a custom node

cd ComfyUI/custom_nodes
git clone https://github.com/xiaodoudou/ComfyUI-RigShare.git

Restart ComfyUI. The console prints:

[RigShare] No accounts yet: open ComfyUI in a browser to create the admin account.
[RigShare] ready, data in /path/to/ComfyUI/rigshare

First run

Open ComfyUI in a browser. While no account exists, the login page shows Create admin account. Pick a username and a password of at least 8 characters, and you are signed in as the administrator. The server accepts this only while there are no accounts, so once the first admin exists, the form is gone for good.

Do this right after installing. Until an admin exists, whoever reaches the page first gets to create one.

For scripted installs you can skip the form by setting these before the first start:

RIGSHARE_ADMIN_USER=admin
RIGSHARE_ADMIN_PASSWORD=a-long-password

They are only read when there are no accounts, so remove them afterwards.

Docker / compose

Mount the node and a data folder:

services:
  comfyui:
    volumes:
      - ./custom_nodes/ComfyUI-RigShare:/app/custom_nodes/ComfyUI-RigShare
      - ./rigshare:/app/rigshare

The data folder is <ComfyUI base path>/rigshare; point it elsewhere with RIGSHARE_DATA_DIR. It holds:

File What it is
users.json Accounts: password hashes, permissions, API key hashes
sessions.json Active logins (session ids, not tokens)
secret.key Key that signs session tokens. Keep it private
config.json Server settings, see Settings
rooms/ Current state of every shared workflow
snapshots/ Workflow history
chat.jsonl The whole chat history, one message per line

Back up the folder to keep accounts and history. Deleting secret.key signs everyone out.

Upgrading from ComfyUI-Nexus

Remove or disable custom_nodes/ComfyUI-Nexus and install RigShare. Nexus kept plaintext passwords in nexus/admins.json, so nothing is imported: create the admin on first run, then delete the old nexus folder.

Removing

Delete custom_nodes/ComfyUI-RigShare and restart. ComfyUI goes back to having no login. The rigshare data folder can be deleted too.
