添加到 Whoosh 索引时出现奇怪的错误

Question

任何人都可以帮助我解决在向 Whoosh 索引添加新文档时遇到的这个奇怪错误吗？

这是代码：

def add_to_index(self, doc):
    ix = index.open_dir(self.index_dir)
    writer = AsyncWriter(ix) # use async writer to prevent write lock errors
    writer.add_document(**self.get_doc_args(doc))
    writer.commit()

def get_doc_args(self, doc):
    return {
        'id':        u""+str(doc['id']),
        'org':       doc['org__id'],
        'created':   doc['created_date'],
        'date':      doc['received_date'],
        'from_addr': doc['from_addr'],
        'subject':   doc['subject'],
        'body':      doc['messagebody__cleaned_message']
    }

我收到以下错误：

TypeError('ord() expected a character, but string of length 0 found',)

    return ord(self.file.read(1))

奇怪的是，使用标准编写器（即不是 AsyncWriter）的完全相同的代码工作得很好。我在这里缺少什么？请注意，在生产中我必须使用 AsyncWriter 以避免 LockErrors。

此错误是由某种索引损坏引起的。就我而言，在重建索引时，机器因另一个原因崩溃了。

您可以通过完全删除 whoosh_index 文件夹内容并重建索引来轻松解决此问题。
