Type error on creating spacy document object

[DrZainulabdeen]

I have scraped and saved a book as txt file with utf-8 encoding but loading this file as an spacy object gives type error

TypeError: '>' not supported between instances of 'int' and 'str'

I am not sure how a text file can have type error, you can download the book from https://github.com/DrZainulabdeen/FireAndBlood-CharacterAnalysis/blob/master/data/fire-and-blood.txt

NER = spacy.load('en_core_web_sm')
NER.max_length = '2000000'

book_path = 'data/fire-and-blood.txt'

with open(book_path, 'r', encoding = 'utf-8') as f:
    book = f.read()
    book_doc = NER(book)

Hi @DrZainulabdeen, you assigned NER.max_length a string value. Try running it with NER.max_length = 2000000.
