Haystack: DeepAnnotation - upload documents

[borhenryk]

Thanks for sharing the annotation tool! looks really great and I find it very useful!

Unfortunately the upload of the files doesn't seem to work properly anymore. It's not possible to upload more than one document (or drag and drop). No matter how many you try to enter, only one uploaded document will be displayed on the page.

Hey @HenrykBorzymowski ,

Glad that you find it useful :)

I could not reproduce your issue (using Ubuntu 18.04, Chrome, 3 txt files and our hosted version on annotate.deepset.ai). Could you please share some more info about your environment? Maybe it's a browser-related issue?

[borhenryk]

sure! Windows 10

I have checked it on chrome and firefox. It seems like the first time u upload it shows the one document I was talking about. The second time you try it uploads the rest of the files as well.

Also tried it out on my macbook (macOS 10.13.6) with the same behavior.

@sfakir can you please have a look at this?

@HenrykBorzymowski Just to make sure I can exclude one reason:

If you upload two documents with the same content, it will silently ignore the second one (automatic duplication detection).

But as far as I understood you upload multiple different ones, and it first rejected the documents, then it worked again right?

[borhenryk]

@sfakir correct. After uploading all documents the second time it works yes. But the first time you do it it is uploading only the first document (or it is showing just the first document?)

[sfakir]

@HenrykBorzymowski This might be an issue with uploading all docouments at the same time. I replaced the upload logic in the latest version with a "one-after-the-other" logic and added an additional progress bar.

So this should work from now on like a charm :)

@borhenryk is this now working on your side? If yes, let's close this issue :)

works perfectly fine now! Thx
