# Text-guided image-inpainting

[[open-in-colab]]

The [`StableDiffusionInpaintPipeline`] allows you to edit specific parts of an image by providing a mask and a text prompt. It uses a version of Stable Diffusion, like [`runwayml/stable-diffusion-inpainting`](https://huggingface.co/runwayml/stable-diffusion-inpainting) specifically trained for inpainting tasks.

Get started by loading an instance of the [`StableDiffusionInpaintPipeline`]:

```python
import PIL
import requests
import torch
from io import BytesIO

from diffusers import StableDiffusionInpaintPipeline

pipeline = StableDiffusionInpaintPipeline.from_pretrained(
    "runwayml/stable-diffusion-inpainting",
    torch_dtype=torch.float16,
)
pipeline = pipeline.to("cuda")
```

Download an image and a mask of a dog which you'll eventually replace:

```python
def download_image(url):
    response = requests.get(url)
    return PIL.Image.open(BytesIO(response.content)).convert("RGB")


img_url = "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/CompVis/latent-diffusion/main/data/inpainting_examples/overture-creations-5sI6fQgYIuo.png"
mask_url = "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/CompVis/latent-diffusion/main/data/inpainting_examples/overture-creations-5sI6fQgYIuo_mask.png"

init_image = download_image(img_url).resize((512, 512))
mask_image = download_image(mask_url).resize((512, 512))
```

Now you can create a prompt to replace the mask with something else:

```python
prompt = "Face of a yellow cat, high resolution, sitting on a park bench"
image = pipe(prompt=prompt, image=init_image, mask_image=mask_image).images[0]
```

`image`          | `mask_image` | `prompt` | output |
:-------------------------:|:-------------------------:|:-------------------------:|-------------------------:|
<img src="https://raw.githubusercontent.com/CompVis/latent-diffusion/main/data/inpainting_examples/overture-creations-5sI6fQgYIuo.png" alt="drawing" width="250"/> | <img src="https://raw.githubusercontent.com/CompVis/latent-diffusion/main/data/inpainting_examples/overture-creations-5sI6fQgYIuo_mask.png" alt="drawing" width="250"/> | ***Face of a yellow cat, high resolution, sitting on a park bench*** | <img src="https://huggingface.co/datasets/hf-internal-testing/diffusers-images/resolve/main/in_paint/yellow_cat_sitting_on_a_park_bench.png" alt="drawing" width="250"/> |


<Tip warning={true}>

A previous experimental implementation of inpainting used a different, lower-quality process. To ensure backwards compatibility, loading a pretrained pipeline that doesn't contain the new model will still apply the old inpainting method.
