CouchDB Document Indexing Issue
TLDR James struggled to index documents from CouchDB, resulting in errors. Kishore Nallan advised checking field definitions and the document's nature. Jason suggested missing "await" statements might cause issues.

James

Kishore Nallan
Wed, 02 Feb 2022 11:31:39 UTCThe collection schema defines a `'default_sorting_field': 'x_top'` If you define a default sorting field, that value should always be present in the document. The document you tried to index didn't have this field.

Kishore Nallan
Wed, 02 Feb 2022 11:39:14 UTCCan you please try inserting one document outside separately? I'm pretty sure that one of the document is not having that field. You can try catching that exception and printing the value of the document.

Wed, 02 Feb 2022 11:44:39 UTCI don't follow you
James
Wed, 02 Feb 2022 11:49:00 UTCthese are the values of the doc
Kishore Nallan
Wed, 02 Feb 2022 11:51:11 UTCTo unblock, remove the `default_sorting_field` configuration and see if it works.
James
Wed, 02 Feb 2022 11:56:24 UTCit throws a new error
Kishore Nallan
Wed, 02 Feb 2022 11:57:45 UTCThen there is something is certainly wrong in the document you are passing into Typesense, Please look carefully.
James
Wed, 02 Feb 2022 12:02:56 UTCthis is the entire document, can't seem to see anything wrong

Wed, 02 Feb 2022 12:08:00 UTCI'm getting the data from my couchdb database
Jason
Wed, 02 Feb 2022 16:40:38 UTCJames On a side note, it looks like Lines 121 and 126 are missing "await"
Jason
Wed, 02 Feb 2022 16:42:46 UTCAlso, doesn't Line 4 need an await or callback of sorts? I'd imagine `.get` is async, when getting data from couchdb
Jason
Wed, 02 Feb 2022 16:44:21 UTCEssentially, you want to make sure that "doc" is an actual JS object when you console.log it just before sending it to Typesense
