The community member is frustrated that the llama index tokenizer only encodes and does not have a decode function. The comments discuss the need for truncating long documents, with some community members suggesting using a splitter and setting the chunk size, while others argue that the best solution is to remove the truncation feature entirely. There is no explicitly marked answer, but the discussion suggests that the community is exploring different approaches to handling large documents.
how do I truncate a document? I can use Settings.encoder to detect a document is too large. how to truncate? unless I entirely remove the truncation feature from my class. 🙂
which I could. or let people pass their own encoder in. which I think is the best option. and of course you only need to pass an encoder if you are using the truncation feature. otherwise it doesnt amtter
