Rerank via HuggingFace or Novita failing

[systemz64]

I am trying to setup a reranker via HF or Novita (OpenAI Compatible) but both fail with some weird errors. For HF it says it cannot resolve the name and seems to be trying http? For Novita it is getting a different error. Here are the novita settings:

model: BAAI/bge-reranker-v2-m3
url: https://api.novita.ai/v3

Fail to access model(OpenAI-API-Compatible/BAAI/bge-reranker-v2-m3).Extra data: line 1 column 5 (char 4)

even with the HF router base url, it does not work. I do not want to use a local engine. Any help would be appreciated

We are investigating this issue, currently you can try the same model provided by silicon flow. It's free

Ragflow supports Novita endpoint by api key only.

I can't help you with novita, it requires a minimum of $10 deposit.

RAGFlow’s HuggingFace rerank implementation prepends http:// to the base_url and appends /rerank, therefore http issue exist.
