  1. do not configure workspace rerank model
  2. in a knowledge dataset retrieval setting, select rerank model mode

✔️ Expected Behavior

lead user to configure a rerank model just like we do when we want choose a text-embedding model

@dosubot[bot] commented on GitHub (Nov 11, 2024):

The issue you're experiencing, where the knowledge database shows a deprecated sign when the workspace rerank model is not set and the rerank model mode is selected, is due to the system expecting a valid rerank model configuration. When the rerank model mode is selected, the system requires a configured rerank model to perform semantic reordering of the retrieved document results. Without this configuration, the system cannot perform the reordering, which may trigger a deprecated sign indicating an incomplete setup [1][2].

To resolve this, you need to configure the rerank model by following these steps:

  1. Configure the Rerank Model:

    • Go to the "Model Providers" page.
    • Enter the API Key for the rerank model (e.g., Cohere, Jina AI).

  2. Set the Rerank Model in Retrieval Settings:

    • Navigate to the "Dataset -> Create Dataset -> Retrieval Settings" page to add the rerank settings.
    • Configure the TopK parameter and Score Threshold as needed.

These steps should help guide users to configure a rerank model, similar to how they would configure a text-embedding model [3][4].

i figure out that this is a bug.
Snipaste_2024-11-11_19-27-58
acutall defaultModel is alway not empty because even though it's not configured, it will be the value like this, a non empty struct with all fields empty string

{
 "provider": "",
 "model": ""
}

Instead of showing the deprecated sign, it's more likely that we tell users to configure at least a rerank model for the workspace like we do for the text-embedding model when it's not set

Hi, @AkisAya. I'm Dosu, and I'm helping the Dify team manage their backlog. I'm marking this issue as stale.

Issue Summary

  • A deprecated sign appears in the knowledge database when the rerank model is not configured.
  • The expected behavior is to prompt users to configure a rerank model, similar to the text-embedding model setup.
  • I provided configuration steps, but you noted the default model is never truly empty.
  • Crazywoola suggested you open a pull request to address the issue.

Next Steps

  • Please confirm if this issue is still relevant to the latest version of the Dify repository by commenting here.
  • If there is no further activity, this issue will be automatically closed in 15 days.

Thank you for your understanding and contribution!

Hi, I had the same issue in Ollama 0.0.5 version.
In the Plugins page if you delete Ollama and Re-Install it. Ollama 0.0.6 will installed (by this message written)
Then if you open Settings page and open Model Provider section and you can click on Ollama then you can see the models will appear on there.
So that you can check your Workspaces everything should be fine.
I hope that helps
