### Description

I am trying to write a appropriate data loader for [a custom dataset](https://huggingface.co/datasets/jalFaizy/detect_chess_pieces) using [this script](https://huggingface.co/datasets/jalFaizy/detect_chess_pieces/blob/main/detect_chess_pieces.py)

When I run the command

`$ datasets-cli test "D:\workspace\HF\detect_chess_pieces" --save_infos --all_configs`

It gives the following error

```
Using custom data configuration default

    return template.from_dict(task_template_dict)
AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'from_dict'
```


My assumption is that there is some kind of issue in how the "task_templates" are read, because even if I keep them as None, or not include the argument at all, the same error occurs

Hi @faizankshaikh

Please note that we have recently launched the Community feature, specifically targeted to create Discussions (about issues/questions/asking-for-help) on each Dataset on the Hub:
- Blog post: https://huggingface.co/blog/community-update
- Docs: https://huggingface.co/docs/hub/repositories-pull-requests-discussions

The Discussion tab for your "jalFaizy/detect_chess_pieces" dataset is here: https://huggingface.co/datasets/jalFaizy/detect_chess_pieces/discussions
You can use it to ask for help by pinging the Datasets maintainers: see our docs here: https://huggingface.co/docs/datasets/master/en/share#ask-for-a-help-and-reviews

I'm transferring this discussion to your Discussion tab and trying to address it: https://huggingface.co/datasets/jalFaizy/detect_chess_pieces/discussions/1

Thank you @albertvillanova , I will keep that in mind.

Just a quick note - I posted the issue on Github because the dataset viewer suggested me to "open an issue for direct support". Maybe it can be updated with your suggestion

Thank you pointing this out: yes, definitely, we should fix the error message. We are working on this.
