# PATINA · Material API

> Text-zu-Textur-Generator für kachelbare Bilder und PBR-Karten mit optionalem img2img und Inpainting

Erzeugt aus einem Prompt kachelbare Texturen und sagt PBR-Karten voraus: basecolor, normal, roughness, metalness und height. Verwenden Sie `tiling_mode` für beide, horizontale oder vertikale Kachelung und `upscale_factor` mit 0, 2 oder 4 zum Vergrößern der Karten. Mit `image_url` wird Bild-zu-Bild aktiviert, mit `mask_url` Inpainting. Bis zu 4 Bilder pro Anfrage.

- Price per run: from $0.08 / run (cheapest run $0.08 (80 API credits))
- Run: `POST https://api.doitong.com/v1/run/patina/material`

## Pricing

Price: **from $0.08 / run** (the lowest tier; the quote prices your exact input). Price per run: the input files are measured before the run (length, resolution, frame rate). The quote measures the same files and is exactly what the run charges.

The full example input below costs $0.08 = 80 API credits (1 run × $0.08).

Prices are the upstream price in USD, paid from the API balance in API credits (1000 API credits = 1 USD). `POST https://api.doitong.com/v1/quote/patina/material` with the same JSON body returns the exact price for that input; the quote is exactly what a run charges. Invalid input is never charged and failed or canceled requests are refunded automatically.

## Input parameters

Send either the canonical name or the native field name (not both). Canonical names are the same across models.

| Parameter | Canonical name | Type | Required | Default | Allowed values / range | Description |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| `prompt` |  | string | yes |  |  | Textbeschreibung des zu erstellenden Materials oder der Textur. |
| `image_size` |  | object {width, height} \| enum (string) | no | `square_hd` | `square_hd`, `square`, `portrait_4_3`, `portrait_16_9`, `landscape_4_3`, `landscape_16_9` | Pixelabmessungen der resultierenden Textur. |
| `num_inference_steps` |  | integer | no | `8` | 1 – 8 | Anzahl der Denoising-Schritte zur TexTurerzeugung. |
| `seed` |  | integer \| null | no |  |  | Zufälliger Seed, der eine reproduzierbare Generierung ermöglicht. |
| `num_images` | `num_outputs` | integer | no | `1` | 1 – 4 | Anzahl der zu erstellenden Texturbilder. |
| `enable_prompt_expansion` |  | boolean | no | `true` |  | Aktiviert die LLM-basierte Prompt-Erweiterung zum Hinzufügen von Details. |
| `enable_safety_checker` |  | boolean | no | `true` |  | Aktiviert die Sicherheitsprüfung generierter Bilder. |
| `tiling_mode` |  | enum (string) | no | `both` | `both`, `horizontal`, `vertical` | Richtung der Kachelung: 'both' für omnidirektionale Kachelung, 'horizontal' oder 'vertical'. |
| `tile_size` |  | integer | no | `128` | 32 – 256 | Kachelgröße im latenten Raum, wobei 64 512px und 128 1024px entspricht. Auf jeder gekachelten Achse legt die Abmessung des generierten Bildes eine automatische Obergrenze fest. |
| `tile_stride` |  | integer | no | `64` | 16 – 128 | Legt den Abstand zwischen Kacheln im latenten Raum fest; eine automatische Begrenzung verhindert, dass er die Hälfte der effektiven Kachelgröße überschreitet. |
| `image_url` | `image` | string (image URL) \| null | no |  |  | Quellbild-URL, die für Inpainting verwendet wird, wenn mask_url mitgegeben wird, andernfalls für die Bild-zu-Bild-Verarbeitung. |
| `mask_url` | `mask` | string (image URL) \| null | no |  |  | Zusammen mit der erforderlichen image_url bereitgestellte URL der Inpainting-Maske. Die Maske behält schwarze Bereiche unverändert bei und generiert weiße Bereiche neu. |
| `strength` |  | number | no | `0.6` | ≤ 1, > 0 | Transformationsstärke, die nur auf ein über image_url bereitgestelltes Bild angewendet wird; andernfalls ungenutzt. |
| `maps` |  | array of enum (string) | no | `["basecolor","normal","roughness","metalness","height"]` |  | Für die Vorhersage ausgewählte PBR-Maps, standardmäßig sind alle fünf ausgewählt. Wenn keine ausgewählt wird, wird die PBR-Schätzung vollständig übersprungen. |
| `upscale_factor` |  | enum (integer) | no | `0` | `0`, `2`, `4` | Faktor für die nahtlose SeedVR-Hochskalierung, der vorhergesagte PBR-Maps beeinflusst, die Basistektur jedoch in ihrer ursprünglichen Auflösung belässt. Wählen Sie 2 für doppelte Auflösung, 4 für vierfache Auflösung oder 0 zum Deaktivieren der Hochskalierung. |
| `output_format` |  | enum (string) | no | `png` | `jpeg`, `png`, `webp` | Bilddateiformat für Ausgabe-Texturen und PBR-Maps. |

File parameters (`image`, `mask`) take a public `https://` URL, a `data:` URI up to 10 MB, or the `file_url` of an upload from `POST /files`.

## Example input

Required parameters only:

```json

  "prompt": "A red fox trots through fresh snow at sunrise, soft golden light, shallow depth of field"
}
```

A fuller example:

```json

  "prompt": "A red fox trots through fresh snow at sunrise, soft golden light, shallow depth of field"
}
```

## Run it

Set `DOITONG_API_KEY` to a key from https://doitong.com/developers/dashboard#keys. `?wait=20` returns the finished request in the same call when it is ready within 20 seconds; otherwise poll `GET /requests/{id}` (it also accepts `?wait=`), or pass `webhook_url`.

### curl

```bash
# Run the model; wait up to 20 s for the finished result in the same call
curl -X POST "https://api.doitong.com/v1/run/patina/material?wait=20" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $DOITONG_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "prompt": "A red fox trots through fresh snow at sunrise, soft golden light, shallow depth of field"
  }'

# Still "queued" or "running"? Poll with the id from the response:
curl "https://api.doitong.com/v1/requests/REQUEST_ID?wait=20" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $DOITONG_API_KEY"
```

### JavaScript

```javascript
const API = "https://api.doitong.com/v1";
const headers = {
  "Authorization": "Bearer " + process.env.DOITONG_API_KEY,
  "Content-Type": "application/json",
};

// Run the model; wait up to 20 s for the finished result in the same call
let res = await fetch(API + "/run/patina/material?wait=20", {
  method: "POST",
  headers,
  body: JSON.stringify({
    "prompt": "A red fox trots through fresh snow at sunrise, soft golden light, shallow depth of field"
  }),
});
let request = await res.json();
if (!res.ok) throw new Error(request.error.code + ": " + request.error.message);

// Not finished yet: long-poll until it is
while (request.status === "queued" || request.status === "running") {
  res = await fetch(API + "/requests/" + request.id + "?wait=20", { headers });
  request = await res.json();
}
if (request.status !== "succeeded") throw new Error(JSON.stringify(request.error));
console.log(request.outputs.map((o) => o.url), request.cost.credits + " API credits ($" + request.cost.usd + ")");
```

### Python

```python
import os
import requests

API = "https://api.doitong.com/v1"
headers = {"Authorization": "Bearer " + os.environ["DOITONG_API_KEY"]}

payload = {
    "prompt": "A red fox trots through fresh snow at sunrise, soft golden light, shallow depth of field",
}

# Run the model; wait up to 20 s for the finished result in the same call
r = requests.post(API + "/run/patina/material", params={"wait": 20}, json=payload, headers=headers)
request = r.json()
if not r.ok:
    raise RuntimeError(request["error"]["code"] + ": " + request["error"]["message"])

# Not finished yet: long-poll until it is
while request["status"] in ("queued", "running"):
    request = requests.get(API + "/requests/" + request["id"], params={"wait": 20}, headers=headers).json()
if request["status"] != "succeeded":
    raise RuntimeError(request["error"])
print([o["url"] for o in request["outputs"]], request["cost"]["credits"], "API credits", "$" + request["cost"]["usd"])
```

### MCP

The MCP server at `https://api.doitong.com/v1/mcp` exposes the tools `search_models`, `get_model`, `quote`, `run`, `get_request`, `cancel_request`, `list_requests`, `create_upload` and `get_account`. A `run` call for this model:

```json
{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "id": 1,
  "method": "tools/call",
  "params": {
    "name": "run",
    "arguments": {
      "model_id": "patina/material",
      "input": {
        "prompt": "A red fox trots through fresh snow at sunrise, soft golden light, shallow depth of field"
      },
      "wait_seconds": 20
    }
  }
}
```

## Response

Every call returns a request object. `status` is one of `queued`, `running`, `succeeded`, `failed`, `canceled`. `outputs` lists the generated files with URLs on our storage (kept forever, or 7 days with `?storage=temporary`; `storage` says which); `output` is the model's own result object with the same URLs.
