Folders created from the sidebar had no in-app way back out: the only
removal path was to leave ComfyUI, delete the directory by hand and
rescan. A typo'd folder also polluted the move/download destination
picker permanently, since it reads the same all_folders source.
Adds POST /api/lm/{prefix}/delete-folder, restricted to directories
whose subtree holds no model weight files — a folder-level cascade would
bypass the per-model lifecycle bookkeeping (metadata sidecars, previews,
cache entries, pending-delete staging, recipe references). The service
walks the directory itself instead of trusting the possibly stale cache,
reports what it would remove (models / files / subfolders / symlinks),
and refuses library roots, top-level symlinks (shutil.rmtree rejects
those) and folders holding a staged delete, whose manifest would be
invalidated by the move. Symbolic links inside the subtree are counted
but never followed.
ModelScanner.remove_known_folder mirrors add_known_folder: the removed
subtree leaves all_folders while ancestors are kept (every recorded
ancestor exists on disk in its own right), stale cache entries under the
prefix are purged and the folder list recomputed. The handler broadcasts
models_changed so destination pickers drop the folder too.
The sidebar entry is a destructive context-menu item. The modal opens in
a confirm state for model-free folders and an explanatory one when the
subtree still holds models, decided from the models-only set that already
dims empty nodes; a stale tree is caught by the 409 not_empty/busy
conflict. Truly empty folders get the existing 20s undo affordance,
implemented by re-creating the directory.
- Render the new-folder input as a temporary tree row at the creation
location (file-explorer style): full-width input confirmed with Enter
and canceled with Escape/blur; the parent folder auto-expands, and in
list mode the row is inserted after the parent item
- Remove the drag-to-blank-area folder creation (drop-zone strip,
sidebar-level drag handlers, performDragMoveWithState); dropping models
onto folder nodes still moves them
- Update empty-state hints and locale keys accordingly
Empty folders (tracked in the scan-recorded all_folders list, same source
the move/download destination picker uses) can now be surfaced in the
folder sidebar via a view-options toggle, dimmed when their subtree holds
no models. Folders can be created directly from the sidebar through a new
POST /api/lm/{prefix}/create-folder endpoint with library-root
containment checks; the scanner records the new directory incrementally
so the tree reflects it without a rescan.
The sidebar header moves its view toggles (tree/list, recursive, empty
folders) into a "..." menu to fit the new create-folder button.
