biniou is a self-hosted webui for several kinds of GenAI (generative artificial intelligence). You can generate multimedia contents with AI and use a chatbot on your own computer, even without dedicated GPU and starting from 8GB RAM. Can work offline (once deployed and required models downloaded).

🆕 2024-10-26 : 🔥 This week's updates 🔥 >
- As previously announced, Flux model Freepik/flux.1-lite-8B-alpha and SD 3.5 model adamo1139/stable-diffusion-3.5-large-turbo-ungated are now supported by Stable Diffusion module. Support will be extended to all eligible modules. Also add support for LoRAs on these models.
- Add support for SDXL model dataautogpt3/Proteus-v0.6 to all Stable Diffusion-based modules.
- Add support for Chatbot models anthracite-org/magnum-v4-9b-gguf and bartowski/Ministral-8B-Instruct-2410-GGUF.
- Add support for SDXL LoRA model KappaNeuro/moebius-jean-giraud-style.
-
🆕 2024-10-25 : 🔥 Support for Freepik/flux.1-lite-8B-alpha 🔥 > Finally ! biniou is now supporting a Flux model \o/ !!! Like SD 3.5, it will require a lot of RAM (64GB) for CPU-only inference, and would be incredibly slow, but gives awesome results. Support of LoRA models for Flux is also added by this update, and I definitely recommend to use the 8-steps HyperSD LoRA model to accelerate your inferences.
-
🆕 2024-10-24 : 🔥 Support for StableDiffusion-3.5-Large-Turbo 🔥 > The last update add support for the latest family of Stable Diffusion models : 3.5 Large. Only the turbo flavor is currently supported. Please note that this monster will require at least 64GB RAM for CPU-only inference, and would be very slow, but highly qualitative. Next update should (finally) bring support for Flux ! 😀

sh <(curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Woolverine94/biniou/main/oci-debian.sh || wget -O - https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Woolverine94/biniou/main/oci-debian.sh)
- Install the pre-requisites as root :
apt install git pip python3 python3-venv gcc perl make ffmpeg openssl
- Clone this repository as user :
git clone https://github.com/Woolverine94/biniou.git
- Launch the installer :
cd ./biniou
./install.sh
- (optional, but highly recommended) Install TCMalloc as root to optimize memory management :
apt install google-perftools
Windows installation has more prerequisites than GNU/Linux one, and requires following softwares (which will be installed automatically) :
- Git
- Python 3.11 (and specifically 3.11 version)
- OpenSSL
- Visual Studio Build tools
- Windows 10/11 SDK
- Vcredist
- ffmpeg
- ... and all their dependencies.
It's a lot of changes on your operating system, and this could potentially bring unwanted behaviors on your system, depending on which softwares are already installed on it.
- Download and execute : biniou_netinstall.exe
OR
- Download and execute : install_win.cmd (right-click on the link and select "Save Target/Link as ..." to download)
All the installation is automated, but Windows UAC will ask you for confirmation for each software installed during the "prerequisites" phase. You can avoid this by running the chosen installer as administrator.
install_win.cmd
Proceed as follow :
- Download and edit install_win.cmd
- Modify
set DEFAULT_BINIOU_DIR="%userprofile%"
toset DEFAULT_BINIOU_DIR="E:\datas\somedir"
(for example) - Only use absolute path (e.g.:
E:\datas\somedir
and not.\datas\somedir
) - Don't add a trailing slash (e.g.:
E:\datas\somedir
and notE:\datas\somedir\
) - Don't add a "biniou" suffix to your path (e.g.:
E:\datas\somedir\biniou
), as the biniou directory will be created by the git clone command - Save and launch install_win.cmd
-
Install Homebrew for your operating system
-
Install required homebrew "bottles" :
brew install git python3 gcc gcc@11 perl make ffmpeg openssl
- Install python virtualenv :
python3 -m pip install virtualenv
- Clone this repository as user :
git clone https://github.com/Woolverine94/biniou.git
- Launch the installer :
cd ./biniou
./install.sh
These instructions assumes that you already have a configured and working docker environment.
- Create the docker image :
docker build -t biniou https://github.com/Woolverine94/biniou.git
or, for CUDA support :
docker build -t biniou https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Woolverine94/biniou/main/CUDA/Dockerfile
- Launch the container :
docker run -it --restart=always -p 7860:7860 \
-v biniou_outputs:/home/biniou/biniou/outputs \
-v biniou_models:/home/biniou/biniou/models \
-v biniou_cache:/home/biniou/.cache/huggingface \
-v biniou_gfpgan:/home/biniou/biniou/gfpgan \
biniou:latest
or, for CUDA support :
docker run -it --gpus all --restart=always -p 7860:7860 \
-v biniou_outputs:/home/biniou/biniou/outputs \
-v biniou_models:/home/biniou/biniou/models \
-v biniou_cache:/home/biniou/.cache/huggingface \
-v biniou_gfpgan:/home/biniou/biniou/gfpgan \
biniou:latest
- Access the webui by the url :
https://127.0.0.1:7860 or https://127.0.0.1:7860/?__theme=dark for dark theme (recommended)
... or replace 127.0.0.1 by ip of your container
Note : to save storage space, the previous container launch command defines common shared volumes for all biniou containers and ensure that the container auto-restart in case of OOM crash. Remove
--restart
and-v
arguments if you didn't want these behaviors.
biniou is natively cpu-only, to ensure compatibility with a wide range of hardware, but you can easily activate CUDA support through Nvidia CUDA (if you have a functional CUDA 12.1 environment) or AMD ROCm (if you have a functional ROCm 5.6 environment) by selecting the type of optimization to activate (CPU, CUDA or ROCm for Linux), in the WebUI control module.
Currently, all modules except Chatbot, Llava and faceswap modules, could benefits from CUDA optimization.
- Launch by executing from the biniou directory :
- for GNU/Linux :
cd /home/$USER/biniou
./webui.sh
- for Windows :
Double-click webui.cmd in the biniou directory (C:\Users\%username%\biniou\). When asked by the UAC, configure the firewall according to your network type to authorize access to the webui
Note : First start could be very slow on Windows 11 (comparing to others OS).
-
Access the webui by the url :
https://127.0.0.1:7860 or https://127.0.0.1:7860/?__theme=dark for dark theme (recommended)
You can also access biniou from any device (including smartphones) on the same LAN/Wifi network by replacing 127.0.0.1 in the url with biniou host ip address. -
Quit by using the keyboard shortcut CTRL+C in the Terminal
-
Update this application (biniou + python virtual environment) by using the WebUI control updates options.
-
Most frequent cause of crash is not enough memory on the host. Symptom is biniou program closing and returning to/closing the terminal without specific error message. You can use biniou with 8GB RAM, but 16GB at least is recommended to avoid OOM (out of memory) error.
-
biniou use a lot of differents AI models, which requires a lot of space : if you want to use all the modules in biniou, you will need around 200GB of disk space only for the default model of each module. Models are downloaded on the first run of each module or when you select a new model in a module and generate content. Models are stored in the directory /models of the biniou installation. Unused models could be deleted to save some space.
-
... consequently, you will need a fast internet access to download models.
-
A backup of every content generated is available inside the /outputs directory of the biniou folder.
-
biniou natively only rely on CPU for all operations. It use a specific CPU-only version of PyTorch. The result is a better compatibility with a wide range of hardware, but degraded performances. Depending on your hardware, expect slowness. See here for Nvidia CUDA support and AMD ROCm experimental support (GNU/Linux only).
-
Defaults settings are selected to permit generation of contents on low-end computers, with the best ratio performance/quality. If you have a configuration above the minimal settings, you could try using other models, increasing media dimensions or duration, modifying inference parameters or other settings (like token merging for images) to obtain better quality contents.
-
biniou is licensed under GNU GPL3, but each model used in biniou has its own license. Please consult each model license to know what you can and cannot do with the models. For each model, you can find a link to the huggingface page of the model in the "About" section of the associated module.
-
Don't have too much expectations : biniou is in an early stage of development, and most open source software used in it are in development (some are still experimental).
-
Every biniou modules offers 2 accordions elements About and Settings :
- About is a quick help feature that describes the module and gives instructions and tips on how to use it.
- Settings is a panel setting specific to the module that lets you configure the generation parameters.
