Something To String

Documentation

• Class name: SomethingToString
• Category: KJNodes/text
• Output node: False

This node is designed to convert various data types into a string format, optionally allowing for the addition of a prefix or suffix to the resulting string. It abstracts the complexity of data type conversion and string manipulation, providing a straightforward way to generate string representations of diverse inputs.

Input types

Required

• input
  • The primary data that will be converted to a string. This input can be of any type, and its conversion is central to the node's functionality.
  • Comfy dtype: *
  • Python dtype: Union[int, float, bool, list, None]

Optional

• prefix
  • An optional string to prepend to the converted input, allowing for customization of the resulting string's format.
  • Comfy dtype: STRING
  • Python dtype: str
• suffix
  • An optional string to append to the converted input, enhancing the flexibility in formatting the resulting string.
  • Comfy dtype: STRING
  • Python dtype: str

Output types

• string
  • Comfy dtype: STRING
  • The output is the string representation of the input, potentially modified by the specified prefix and/or suffix.
  • Python dtype: str

Usage tips

• Infra type: CPU
• Common nodes: unknown
