[shumin018]

Hello, i've followed the instructions to host llmsherpa on my own resources, but when im trying to access this via an external URL, im getting a json decode error

JSONDecodeError: Expecting value: line 1 column 1 (char 0)

any help please? thanks!

code -

from llmsherpa.readers import LayoutPDFReader
llmsherpa_api_url = 'http://myurl.com/api/parseDocument?renderFormat=all&useNewIndentParser=yes'
pdf_url = "https://abc.xyz/assets/91/b3/3f9213d14ce3ae27e1038e01a0e0/2024q1-alphabet-earnings-release-pdf.pdf"


pdf_reader = LayoutPDFReader(llmsherpa_api_url)
doc = pdf_reader.read_pdf(pdf_url)

Check for http://myurl.com nlm-ingestion server, if is working or not.

JSONDecodeError: Expecting value: line 1 column 1 (char 0) arises when server is not working

I'm having the same issue too. Here is my code

from llmsherpa.readers import LayoutPDFReader

llmsherpa_api_url = "http://localhost:5010/api/document/developer/parseDocument?renderFormat=all"
pdf_url = "myfile.pdf" # also allowed is a file path e.g. /home/downloads/xyz.pdf
pdf_reader = LayoutPDFReader(llmsherpa_api_url)
doc = pdf_reader.read_pdf(pdf_url)

In the container, here is the log:
