A web-based interface for AI-powered image generation and editing using ByteDance's SeedDream v4 models via the FAL API. This application is containerized and ready for deployment on Hugging Face Spaces.

## Features

- 🎨 **Dual Mode**: Switch between Image Editing and Text-to-Image generation
- 📤 Support for multiple image uploads (up to 10 images for editing)
- 🔗 URL-based image input support
- ⚙️ Customizable generation settings with smart dimension detection
- 🔒 Safety checker disabled for unrestricted creativity
- 🐳 Docker containerized for easy deployment
- 🚀 Hugging Face Spaces compatible

## Quick Start

### Local Development

1. **Clone the repository**
   ```bash
   git clone <your-repo-url>
   cd fal_ui
   ```

2. **Install dependencies**
   ```bash
   # Install Python dependencies
   pip install -r requirements.txt
   ```

3. **Run the application**
   ```bash
   python app.py
   ```
   The app will be available at `http://localhost:7860`

### Docker Deployment

1. **Build the Docker image**
   ```bash
   docker build -t seedream-editor .
   ```

2. **Run the container**
   ```bash
   docker run -p 7860:7860 seedream-editor
   ```

## Deployment on Hugging Face Spaces

### Method 1: Direct Deployment

1. Go to [Hugging Face Spaces](https://huggingface.co/spaces)
2. Click "Create new Space"
3. Choose "Docker" as the SDK
4. Upload all project files
5. The application is ready to deploy - users will enter their API key directly in the interface

### Method 2: Using Git

1. Create a new Space on Hugging Face
2. Clone your space locally:
   ```bash
   git clone https://huggingface.co/spaces/YOUR_USERNAME/YOUR_SPACE_NAME
   cd YOUR_SPACE_NAME
   ```

3. Copy all project files to the space directory
4. Create a `.gitignore` file:
   ```
   __pycache__/
   *.pyc
   .env
   ```

5. Push to Hugging Face:
   ```bash
   git add .
   git commit -m "Initial commit"
   git push
   ```

## Configuration

### API Key

The FAL API key is entered directly in the web interface:
- Enter your API key in the "API Configuration" section at the top of the page
- The key is stored locally in your browser (localStorage)
- Get your API key from [fal.ai](https://fal.ai)

### Model Selection

Choose between two powerful models:
- **Image Edit Mode**: `fal-ai/bytedance/seedream/v4/edit` - Edit existing images with prompts
- **Text-to-Image Mode**: `fal-ai/bytedance/seedream/v4/text-to-image` - Generate new images from text

### Environment Variables

- `PORT`: Port number (default: 7860)
- `SPACE_ID`: Automatically set by Hugging Face Spaces

### Generation Settings
- **Image Size**: Preset sizes or custom dimensions (1024-4096px)
- **Number of Generations**: Control output quantity
- **Seed**: Optional seed for reproducible results
- **Safety Checker**: Toggle content filtering

### API Integration
- Automatic API key management
- Real-time progress logging
- Error handling and status updates

## Security Notes

- Never expose your FAL API key in client-side code
- The application uses server-side proxy for API calls
- API keys can be stored in environment variables or Hugging Face secrets

## Troubleshooting

### Common Issues

1. **API Key Error**
   - Ensure you've entered your FAL API key in the interface
   - Check if the key has proper permissions
   - Get a new key from [fal.ai](https://fal.ai) if needed

2. **Docker Build Fails**
   - Verify all files are in the correct directories
   - Check Docker daemon is running

3. **Hugging Face Deployment Issues**
   - Ensure Dockerfile is present
   - Check logs in the Space settings
