Can't serialize document

[minhlab]

I can save a Spacy document to disk but not one produced by neuralcoref. For example, the following snippet returns error TypeError: can't serialize My sister: [My sister, She].

import spacy

nlp0 = spacy.load('en_core_web_sm')
doc0 = nlp0(u'My sister has a dog. She loves him.')
with open(f'output/test0.pkl', 'wb') as f:
    f.write(doc0.to_bytes())

nlp = spacy.load('en_coref_sm')
doc = nlp(u'My sister has a dog. She loves him.')
with open(f'output/test.pkl', 'wb') as f:
    f.write(doc.to_bytes())

The files produced are as follows:

$ ls -lh output/*.pkl
-rw-r--r--  1 cumeo  staff     0B Aug 11 21:16 output/test.pkl
-rw-r--r--  1 cumeo  staff    16K Aug 11 21:16 output/test0.pkl

I'm having the same issues..

Still an issue in the current version 4.0, I will try to fix this.

Similar issue with directly pickling the doc.

span.pyx in spacy.tokens.span.Span.__reduce__()

NotImplementedError: [E112] Pickling a span is not supported, because spans are only views of the parent Doc and can't exist on their own. A pickled span would always have to include its Doc and Vocab, which has practically no advantage over pickling the parent Doc directly. So instead of pickling the span, pickle the Doc it belongs to or use Span.as_doc to convert the span to a standalone Doc object.

I also have this issue on the most recent neuralcoref version

I've had this issue too, while trying to call doc_bytes = doc.to_bytes()
