Let me investigate the code to understand what's happening. --- ### 🤖 Cursor Assistant Now let me check the server.py file to understand what the `/index/structure` endpoint actually returns: --- ### 🤖 Cursor Assistant Let me check the bm25_engine.py file to see what the `get_index_info()` method returns: --- ### 🤖 Cursor Assistant Let me check the `get_index_structure()` method in the InvertedIndex class: --- ### 🤖 Cursor Assistant Now I understand the issue! [[memory:8629917]] The server returns the index structure in a nested format, but the demo.py script is trying to access it incorrectly. The server returns: ``` { 'statistics': {...}, 'structure': { 'inverted_index': {...}, 'document_info': {...} }, 'bm25_params': {...} } ``` But the demo.py is trying to access `structure['inverted_index']` directly instead of `structure['structure']['inverted_index']`. Let me fix this: --- ### 🤖 Cursor Assistant Perfect! I've fixed the issue in the demo.py file. The problem was that the server's `/index/structure` endpoint returns a nested structure where the actual index information is under a 'structure' key, but the demo script was trying to access it directly. The fix properly handles the nested structure: - The response contains `{'statistics': {...}, 'structure': {...}, 'bm25_params': {...}}` - The inverted index is actually at `data['structure']['inverted_index']`, not `data['inverted_index']` - I've also added safe access with `.get()` methods to handle missing keys gracefully Now you can run the demo again: --- ### 🤖 Cursor Assistant Excellent! The demo is now working perfectly. The issue has been fixed successfully. The problem was that the server's `/index/structure` endpoint returns a nested JSON structure, but the demo script was trying to access the fields at the wrong level. The server returns: ```json { "statistics": {...}, "structure": { "inverted_index": {...}, "document_info": {...} }, "bm25_params": {...} } ``` The fix properly navigates the nested structure and adds safe access patterns with `.get()` methods to handle missing keys gracefully. The demo now successfully: 1. **Indexes 10 sample documents** covering topics like Python, Machine Learning, NLP, databases, etc. 2. **Displays index statistics** showing term frequencies and document counts 3. **Visualizes the index structure** including BM25 parameters, inverted index samples, and document information 4. **Performs various searches** demonstrating the BM25 ranking algorithm with different queries 5. **Tests document retrieval** by fetching specific documents by ID The sparse embedding (BM25) search engine is working as expected, providing educational insights into how inverted indices and text search algorithms work! --- *Exported from [Cursor View](https://github.com/saharmor/cursor-view)*
