Every section inherited plain BaseModel, so unknown keys were dropped
silently: providers.docling_serve.timeout was documented for months while
being ignored, and a typo in any setting took the default. Sections now
derive from ConfigModel, which forbids extras, so a stale or misspelled key
fails with its path. This already found search.context_radius in a live app
config and providers.vllm in soliplex's example.
converter, chunker and chunker_type are Literals. Sizes, limits,
dimensions, token budgets, attempt counts and breaker thresholds must be
positive; retention, delays, intervals and cooldowns non-negative;
similarity_threshold within 0-1; port within 0-65535. port 0 keeps its
OS-assigned meaning and worker_count allows 0 for an API-and-reaper-only
process.
get_reranker caught ImportError and returned None, so a configured reranker
whose extra was missing silently disappeared. It now propagates.
raise_missing_extra names the install command and re-raises when the failure
came from inside an installed package, so a broken transitive import is not
reported as a missing one. zeroentropy imported bare and now guards like the
others.
The haiku.rag package declares the jina extra. jina-local already worked
there through cross-encoder's transitive transformers and torch; the
resolved package set is unchanged, but the support is now promised rather
than inherited.
Provider fields stay unconstrained: get_model ends in a pass-through to
pydantic-ai for any provider it supports, so a Literal there would reject
valid configurations.
haiku.rag.config exported two configuration instances: the lazy _config
behind get_config/set_config, and Config, loaded at import time. Nothing
linked them, and eleven signatures captured Config as a default argument,
so set_config could not reach the factories, the client, the store or the
MCP server. reranking/base.py went further and snapshotted the configured
reranker name into a class attribute at import.
Config is removed. Internal defaults are config: AppConfig | None = None,
resolved through get_config() per call. RerankerBase._model is None and
CohereReranker takes its model name as an argument, like every other
reranker.
The suite patched attributes on Config while production read the instance
get_config() returns, a different object, so those patches were no-ops
waiting to happen. They now go through get_config().
reranking.multimodal (vllm provider only) attaches picture bytes to
synthetic picture chunks before rerank; VLLMReranker sends them as
content-parts documents (base64 data URI + description text) in the
same /v1/rerank request as plain text documents.
Replace the seven repeated `config.reranking.model and ... == provider`
checks and six per-branch ImportError handlers with one None guard and one
try/except around the provider dispatch.
