A fork of Shrimbly's Node Banana with additional nodes, features, and fixes for production use on a LAN-accessible workstation.
Upstream: This fork tracks
shrimbly/node-bananaas theupstreamremote. All additions are layered on top of the upstream feature set.
| Node | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Video Input | Input | Load video files (MP4, WebM) from disk with thumbnail preview and lazy playback |
| Video Compare | Process | Side-by-side video comparison with three modes: Slide (wipe), Blend (opacity), and Difference (pixel diff). Synced playback with wait-for-both restart |
| Image Compare (enhanced) | Process | Added Blend and Difference modes with opacity control (upstream only has the slider) |
| GLB Viewer (enhanced) | Viewer | Three.js-based 3D model viewer with orbit controls, auto-rotation, background pin visibility toggle, and file persistence across workflow save/reload |
| Gaussian Splat Viewer (enhanced) | Viewer | Renamed from "SPZ Viewer". Added XYZ transform controls, camera animation timeline with keyframes, video export (H264/WebM), depth map capture (float-precision), and COLMAP export |
| Output Node (enhanced) | Output | Universal input handle accepting all media types. "Output Now" button for one-click export with sidecar JSON. Blob URL conversion for 3D files. Performance-optimized selectors |
- One-click export of any connected media (image, video, audio, 3D model) to a user-chosen directory
- Automatically generates a sidecar
.jsonfile containing the upstream workflow (trimmed of carousel history) - Sidecar JSON can be re-imported by dragging onto the canvas, reconstructing the full upstream pipeline
- Blob URLs are converted to base64 client-side before saving (server can't fetch blob URLs)
- Workflow file stays small after export by externalizing all media fields
- Server binds to
0.0.0.0for LAN access from other machines allowedDevOriginsconfigured for cross-machine dev server access- Network path hints (
\\server\share) in project setup - Web-based directory browser (replaced native OS picker for cross-network compatibility)
- Client-side
file://URL opening with clipboard copy fallback for non-secure contexts
- Per-generation cost display on all generator nodes using fal.ai Cost Estimation API
- Session cost accumulator in the header
- Generate3D and GenerateAudio nodes included in workflow cost breakdown
- Videos and audio externalized during workflow save (keeps
.jsonfiles small) - 3D models and audio cleared from output node data on save
- Auto-restore of 3D models in GLB viewers after workflow reload
MediaOverlaycomponent for consistent video/image overlay viewingmediaCaptureandmediaStorageutilities for thumbnail generation and disk persistence
- Panorama preview with azimuth dropdowns and standalone viewer URL
- Multi-image upload with azimuth metadata
is_panocheckbox on World Generator node- Auto-save SPZ and panorama files to generations folder
- SessionStorage quota fix for large panorama data
- Panorama Editor node with WebGL compositing
- Perspective crop capture from panorama viewer
- Focus viewer button and cleanup
- Replicate: Polling timeout fix for queued predictions
- Image display:
object-containinstead ofobject-cover(images fit, not fill) - Output node: Fixed 5+ issues — folder creation, 3D input routing, reactive content detection, infinite loop from megabyte-length selector strings, invisible context menu edges (wrong handle IDs)
- Edge routing: Images through "universal" handle were silently dropped; fixed with
type === "image"fallback - Workflow inflation: Output node externalization now clears all media fields (was missing
model3d,audio) - Sidecar JSON bloat:
extractUpstreamWorkflowtrimsgenerate3dcarousel history - 3D context menu: Renamed "GLB Viewer" to "3D Viewer", removed "Gaussian Splat Viewer", added "Output"
- Depth map artifacts: Float render target, edge-preserving filter, morphological dilation, stochastic accumulation
- Path handling: Mixed path separators, stale project directory after settings change, UNC path image loading
- Apple SHARP node — replaced by
sharp-mlon Replicate

The /examples directory contains example workflow files. To use them:
- Start the dev server with
npm run dev - Drag any
.jsonfile from/examplesinto the browser window - Review prompts before running — they're tuned for specific examples
npm test # Watch mode
npm run test:run # Single run
npm run test:coverage # With coverage reportMIT
