How does one create a pytorch data loader with a custom hugging face data set without having errors?
Currently my custom data set gives None indices in the data loader, but NOT in the pure data set. When I wrap it in pytorch data loader it fails.Code is incolabbut will put it here in case colab dies someday:pip install datasets
pip install pytorch
pip install transformersthen runtoken = None
batch_size = 10
from datasets import load_dataset
import torch
from transformers import GPT2Tokenizer, GPT2LMHeadModel

tokenizer = GPT2Tokenizer.from_pretrained("gpt2")
if tokenizer.pad_token_id is None:
  tokenizer.pad_token = tokenizer.eos_token
probe_network = GPT2LMHeadModel.from_pretrained("gpt2")
device = torch.device(f"cuda:{0}" if torch.cuda.is_available() else "cpu")
probe_network = probe_network.to(device)

# -- Get batch from dataset
from datasets import load_dataset
# path, name = 'brando/debug1_af', 'debug1_af'
path, name = 'brando/debug0_af', 'debug0_af'
remove_columns = []
dataset = load_dataset(path, name, streaming=True, split="train", token=token).with_format("torch")
print(f'{dataset=}')
batch = dataset.take(batch_size)
# print(f'{next(iter(batch))=}')

# - Prepare functions to tokenize batch
def preprocess(examples):  # gets the raw text batch according to the specific names in table in data set & tokenize
    return tokenizer(examples["link"], padding="max_length", max_length=128, truncation=True, return_tensors="pt")
def map(batch):  # apply preprocess to batch to all examples in batch represented as a dataset
    return batch.map(preprocess, batched=True, remove_columns=remove_columns)
tokenized_batch = batch.map(preprocess, batched=True, remove_columns=remove_columns)
tokenized_batch = map(batch)
# print(f'{next(iter(tokenized_batch))=}')

from torch.utils.data import Dataset, DataLoader, SequentialSampler
dataset = tokenized_batch
print(f'{type(dataset)=}')
print(f'{dataset.__class__=}')
print(f'{isinstance(dataset, Dataset)=}')
# for i, d in enumerate(dataset):

#     # dd = dataset[i]

loader_opts = {}

# data_loader = DataLoader(dataset, shuffle=False, batch_size=loader_opts.get('batch_size', 1),
#                         num_workers=loader_opts.get('num_workers', 0), drop_last=False, sampler=SequentialSampler(range(512))  )

                    num_workers=loader_opts.get('num_workers', 0), drop_last=False, sampler=None)

TypeError: default_collate: batch must contain tensors, numpy arrays, numbers, dicts or lists; found <class 'NoneType'>why is this error happening?I’ve done all the checks, e.g., make sure the return indices are dicts, even went in detail debugging mode with pdb inside of pytorch’s code.so:python - How does one create a pytorch data loader with a custom hugging face data set without having errors? - Stack Overflow
