Error: Index isn't ready

[thepowerfulwoz]

When constructing a basic hybrid router, and then calling it the error "Index is not ready" is thrown. My initial code was as follows:

encoder = HuggingFaceEncoder()
sparse_encoder = BM25Encoder()
index = HybridLocalIndex()
rl = HybridRouter(encoder=encoder, sparse_encoder=sparse_encoder, routes=routes, index=index)

print(rl("Get me an image of ships in the bay"))

After reading through the code and finding the is_ready() function, as well as looking through the index.add() function, I then attempted:

for route in routes:
    index.add(embeddings=encoder(route.utterances), routes=[route.name], utterances=route.utterances, sparse_embeddings=sparse_encoder(route.utterances))
    print(route.utterances)
print(index.get_routes())

This, however, both threw IndexError: index 41 is out of bounds for axis 0 with size 4, and only added the first utterance to the list of utterances.

It is very possible that I am missing something obvious, but I would appreciate some guidance on how to move forward.

Thanks in advance!

router = SemanticRouter(
    encoder=encoder,
    routes=routes,
    auto_sync="local" # <---- This is missing 
)

or

router = SemanticRouter(
    encoder=dense_encoder,
    routes=routes,
)
router.sync(sync_mode="local")

Once you add that line it will work. Have not investigated the reason in depth tho.

Can you confirm whether adding the "sync" setting worked? @thepowerfulwoz
