OpenAi Embedding Component: Error Building Component RedisCache only accepts values that can be pickled.

Bug Description

I must say langflow is giving me hard time with various errors, crashes and install that was very challenging. running 1.0.16 on docker.

here is my docker-compose.yml

@HanumanTFM Hello there! I'm here to assist you with any bugs, questions, or contributions you have. Let's tackle this issue together while we wait for a human maintainer.

I found a similar closed issue that might be relevant to your problem: Can't query SQL db, can't pickle 'module' object. The suggested solution was to update the LangChain version to be <0.1.0 to get the fixes ASAP. However, it was noted that the issue might not be related to LangChain and could involve pickling in the backend ^[1].

To resolve the "RedisCache only accepts values that can be pickled" error when running the OpenAI embedding component in Langflow 1.0.16 on Docker, ensure that all values being stored in the Redis cache are serializable (i.e., can be pickled). This typically involves ensuring that the objects you are trying to cache are of types that can be serialized by Python's pickle module.

Here's a snippet of the build method from the RedisComponent class:

def build(
    self,
    embedding: Embeddings,
    redis_server_url: str,
    redis_index_name: str,
    schema: Optional[str] = None,
    inputs: Optional[Record] = None,
) -> Union[VectorStore, BaseRetriever]:
    documents = []
    for _input in inputs or []:
        if isinstance(_input, Record):
            documents.append(_input.to_lc_document())
        else:
            documents.append(_input)
    if not documents:
        if schema is None:
            raise ValueError("If no documents are provided, a schema must be provided.")
        redis_vs = Redis.from_existing_index(
            embedding=embedding,
            index_name=redis_index_name,
            schema=schema,
            key_prefix=None,
            redis_url=redis_server_url,
        )
    else:
        redis_vs = Redis.from_documents(
            documents=documents,  # type: ignore
            embedding=embedding,
            redis_url=redis_server_url,
            index_name=redis_index_name,
        )
    return redis_vs

Ensure that the documents are pickle-compatible. You might need to inspect the Record class and the to_lc_document method to confirm that they produce serializable objects. If any custom objects are being used, make sure they implement the necessary methods to be pickled.

You can manually test the serialization of your documents using the pickle module:

import pickle

# Example document
document = {"key": "value"}  # Replace with your actual document

# Test pickling
try:
    pickle.dumps(document)
    print("Document is pickle-compatible")
except pickle.PicklingError:
    print("Document is not pickle-compatible")

Ensure that all objects being passed to Redis can be serialized without errors. If any object fails to be pickled, you will need to modify it to be compatible or avoid caching it ^[2].

Additionally, the Record class and its to_lc_document method should produce pickle-compatible objects. The Record class is a subclass of BaseModel from Pydantic, which supports serialization, and the to_lc_document method converts a Record to a Document ^[3][4].

If you continue to face issues, please ensure that your Docker setup and dependencies are correctly configured and up-to-date.

How about do not to use RedisCache?Try to use default cache

@HanumanTFM

Have you already tested the new version 1.1.1?

Take a look; a lot of things have been changed and adjusted.
