Can't set max_width (or max_weight / height) in .yml file

I’m trying to create a custom profile following the instructions here: https://github.com/graphhopper/graphhopper/pull/1841

but I get the following error:

I’ve modified the following lines of the config.yml file:
graph.flag_encoders: car, emergencycar

profiles:
    name: emergencycar
        vehicle: emergencycar
        weighting: custom
        custom_model_file: ./emergencycar.yml

emergencycar.yml looks like this:

distance_influence: 50
priority:
  max_weight: { "<2.5": 0 }
  max_height: { "<1.5": 0 }
  max_width: { "<2": 0 }

I’ve also created an encoder for emergencycar by copying CarFlagEncoder.java to EmergencyCarFlagEncoder.java, modifying the speeds and referencing it in DefaultFlagEncoderFactory.java and FlagEncoderFactory.java.

If I comment out the max_width/height/weight lines of the emergencycar.yml the server starts up and I can make requests using the route-custom?profile=emergencycar endpoint.

Any assistance is much appreciated. Thanks in advance!

You need to setup the encoded values you are using: graph.encoded_values=max_weight,max_height,max_width

Also have a look into this tutorial: Flexible / Configurable Weighting Update I’m currently improving it and will release it as a blog post in the next few days.

Thank you @easbar! I should have noticed that in the config.yml. I set line 19 of my config file to graph.encoded_values: max_weight,max_height,max_width and it works now!

@karussell That tutorial is helpful. I had previously reviewed the discussion in the PR (https://github.com/graphhopper/graphhopper/pull/1841) which was very useful but the tutorial added some good context.
