[BUG] Pipelines with Routes - unable to start, documentation is broken

[eugenepyvovarov]

Description

Trying to get pipelines going with routes, documentation and samples are slightly off. Imports to Routes and Route are not correct and sample code will fail validation for Tasks, Agent pedantic validation, since it is missing several fields.

But even after fixing that it will not start, I receive this error message no matter what

RuntimeWarning: coroutine 'Pipeline.kickoff' was never awaited main_pipeline.kickoff(inputs=inputs) RuntimeWarning: Enable tracemalloc to get the object allocation traceback

As I understand - the route functionality is done with async module and we can't just run it like normal function. But my experience with async calling is not enough to run it properly, if someone was able to run it - please advice.

Steps to Reproduce

1. just followed the route documentation https://docs.crewai.com/core-concepts/Pipeline/#routers-in-pipelines

Expected behavior

I expect it to run and return something so I can start building on top of it

Hey @eugenepyvovarov! I'm working on updating the Pipeline docs this week.

I want to unblock you as fast as possible though! Are you free for a Zoom call today or tomorrow? I'd be happy to review your pipeline and show you how to fix it.

Please shoot me an email at [email protected] so we can coordinate a time if you're interested in additional support.

If not, no worries! I'll shoot you a message as soon as we fix the docs.

try to start the pipeline kickoff like this function call, I try this is OK! gen_pipeline = Pipeline( stages=[spam_crew, analyst_crew, writing_crew] )

async def gen_main(): result_s = await gen_pipeline.kickoff(inputs=[{"discussion": discussion}]) return result_s

results = asyncio.run(gen_main())
