# PhotoMaker API

> Uzalishaji wa picha za mtu maalum kutoka hifadhi ya picha za marejeo, ukiwa na mipangilio ya mtindo na img2img ya hiari

Huunda picha mpya za mtu kutoka kwenye hifadhi ya picha yenye mtindo wa zip (`image_archive_url`) pamoja na `prompt` ya maandishi inayohitajika. Chagua mchakato msingi wa `photomaker` au `photomaker-style`, kisha uchague kati ya mitindo 11 kama Cinematic, Comic book au Line art. Hutumia picha 1 hadi 4 kwa ombi, hatua 20 hadi 100 za inferensi, mwongozo wa 1 hadi 10, na picha ya mwanzo ya hiari yenye `initial_image_strength` kati ya 0 na 1.

- Model id: `photomaker`
- Made by: Tencent
- Category: Image Editing
- Output: image
- Estimated price per run: $0.022 / image (cheapest run $0.022 (22 API credits))
- Run: `POST https://api.doitong.com/v1/run/photomaker`
- Quote: `POST https://api.doitong.com/v1/quote/photomaker`
- Docs page: https://doitong.com/sw/developers/models/photomaker

## Pricing

Price: **$0.022 / image**. Estimated from the typical cost of one run, per output (`num_images`). The quote is exactly what the run charges.

The full example input below costs $0.022 = 22 API credits (1 image × 22 API credits).

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/photomaker` 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 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| `image_archive_url` |  | string | yes |  |  | Toa picha za kutumia kwenye archive, zilizobainishwa kwa URL yake. |
| `prompt` |  | string | yes |  |  | Eleza picha unayotaka kuzalisha kwa maelezo mengi iwezekanavyo ili kupata matokeo bora. |
| `base_pipeline` |  | enum (string) | no | `photomaker` | `photomaker`, `photomaker-style` | Pipeline ya msingi inayotumika kwa uzalishaji wa picha. |
| `initial_image_url` |  | string (image URL) \| null | no |  |  | Picha ya hiari ya kuanzia kwa uchakataji wa img2img. |
| `initial_image_strength` |  | number | no | `0.5` | 0 – 1 | Kiwango cha noise cha picha fiche, kuanzia bila noise iliyoongezwa katika O hadi kiwango cha juu katika 1. |
| `style` |  | enum (string) | no | `Photographic` | `(No style)`, `Cinematic`, `Disney Character`, `Digital Art`, `Photographic`, `Fantasy art`, `Neonpunk`, `Enhance`, `Comic book`, `Lowpoly`, `Line art` |  |
| `negative_prompt` |  | string | no | `` |  | Kidokezo hasi kinachobainisha maelezo ya picha yasiyotakiwa. Kinaweza kuondoa rangi, vitu, mandhari au vipengele na sifa ndogo, kama vile masharubu, ukungu au mwonekano wa chini. |
| `num_inference_steps` |  | integer | no | `50` | 20 – 100 | Dhibiti idadi ya hatua za uzalishaji zinazofanywa na Stable Diffusion; hatua za ziada zinaweza kutoa picha ya mwisho yenye maelezo zaidi. |
| `style_strength` |  | integer | no | `20` | 15 – 50 |  |
| `num_images` | `num_outputs` | integer | no | `1` | 1 – 4 | Weka idadi ya picha zinazozalishwa na ombi moja, ukiruhusu muda zaidi wa uzalishaji kwa kundi kubwa. |
| `guidance_scale` |  | number | no | `5` | 1 – 10 | Nguvu ya kufuata kidokezo kwa uteuzi wa picha, iliyoonyeshwa kama CFG (Classifier Free Guidance). |
| `seed` |  | integer \| null | no |  |  | Mbegu ya kurudia picha katika Stable Diffusion. Picha inaweza kurudiwa kwa usahihi kila uendeshaji kwa kuweka toleo la modeli, kidokezo na mbegu bila kubadilika. |
| `enable_safety_checker` |  | boolean | no | `true` |  | Ukaguzi unaweza kulegezwa kwa kuweka false, ikiwa mpigaji simu ameidhinishwa. |

File parameters (`initial_image_url`) 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
{
  "image_archive_url": "https://content.doitong.com/images/showcase/v3/gen_fox_cartoon.jpg",
  "prompt": "A red fox trots through fresh snow at sunrise, soft golden light, shallow depth of field"
}
```

A fuller example:

```json
{
  "image_archive_url": "https://content.doitong.com/images/showcase/v3/gen_fox_cartoon.jpg",
  "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/photomaker?wait=20" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $DOITONG_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "image_archive_url": "https://content.doitong.com/images/showcase/v3/gen_fox_cartoon.jpg",
    "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/photomaker?wait=20", {
  method: "POST",
  headers,
  body: JSON.stringify({
    "image_archive_url": "https://content.doitong.com/images/showcase/v3/gen_fox_cartoon.jpg",

  }),
});
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 = {
    "image_archive_url": "https://content.doitong.com/images/showcase/v3/gen_fox_cartoon.jpg",
    "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/photomaker", 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": "photomaker",
      "input": {
        "image_archive_url": "https://content.doitong.com/images/showcase/v3/gen_fox_cartoon.jpg",
        "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.
