Hello, @Logan M , how to delete document

Hello, , how to delete document knowledge from index in llamaindex python?
My current code
storage_context = StorageContext.from_defaults(persist_dir="./gptdb/"+data['email'])
index = load_index_from_storage(storage_context,service_context=service_context)
index.delete_ref_doc(data["doc_id"], delete_from_docstore=True)
storage_context.persist(persist_dir="./gptdb/"+data['email'])

But, it doesn't delete document knowledge

can you check @WhiteFang_Jr as well?

re-create the query_engine instance after persisting the index once and check.

oopenmind

can you give me example code for this?

Plain Text

storage_context = StorageContext.from_defaults(persist_dir="./gptdb/"+data['email'])
index = load_index_from_storage(storage_context,service_context=service_context)
index.delete_ref_doc(data["doc_id"], delete_from_docstore=True)
storage_context.persist(persist_dir="./gptdb/"+data['email'])
query_engine = index.as_query_engine(previous_entries_here...) # Creating query_engine again after deleting items from the index

oopenmind

query_engine = index.as_query_engine(previous_entries_here...)
Although I don't need to query after deleting, should I do that?

How are you checking your doc is not deleted?
