2023-07-01[doc] rearranges Settings & Engines docs for better readabilityMarkus Heiser
We have built up detailed documentation of the *settings* and the *engines* over the past few years. However, this documentation was still spread over various chapters and was difficult to navigate in its entirety. This patch rearranges the Settings & Engines documentation for better readability. To review new ordered docs:: make docs.clean docs.live Signed-off-by: Markus Heiser <markus.heiser@darmarit.de>
2023-06-25[fix] engine & network issues / documentation and type annotationsMarkus Heiser
This patch fixes some quirks and issues related to the engines and the network. Each engine has its own network and this network was broken for the following engines[1]: - archlinux - bing - dailymotion - duckduckgo - google - peertube - startpage - wikipedia Since the files have been touched anyway, the type annotaions of the engine modules has also been completed so that error messages from the type checker are no longer reported. Related and (partial) fixed issue: - [1] https://github.com/searxng/searxng/issues/762#issuecomment-1605323861 - [2] https://github.com/searxng/searxng/issues/2513 - [3] https://github.com/searxng/searxng/issues/2515 Signed-off-by: Markus Heiser <markus.heiser@darmarit.de>

2023-05-29[mod] limiter -> botdetection: modularization and documentationMarkus Heiser
In order to be able to meet the outstanding requirements, the implementation is modularized and supplemented with documentation. This patch does not contain functional change, except it fixes issue #2455 ---- Aktivate limiter in the settings.yml and simulate a bot request by:: curl -H 'Accept-Language: de-DE,en-US;q=0.7,en;q=0.3' \ -H 'Accept: text/html' -H 'User-Agent: xyz' \ -H 'Accept-Encoding: gzip' \ 'http://127.0.0.1:8888/search?q=foo' In the LOG: DEBUG searx.botdetection.link_token : missing ping for this request: ..... Since ``BURST_MAX_SUSPICIOUS = 2`` you can repeat the query above two time before you get a "Too Many Requests" response.

2023-03-24[mod] replace engines_languages.json by engines_traits.jsonMarkus Heiser
Implementations of the *traits* of the engines. Engine's traits are fetched from the origin engine and stored in a JSON file in the *data folder*. Most often traits are languages and region codes and their mapping from SearXNG's representation to the representation in the origin search engine. To load traits from the persistence:: searx.enginelib.traits.EngineTraitsMap.from_data() For new traits new properties can be added to the class:: searx.enginelib.traits.EngineTraits .. hint:: Implementation is downward compatible to the deprecated *supported_languages method* from the vintage implementation. The vintage code is tagged as *deprecated* an can be removed when all engines has been ported to the *traits method*. Signed-off-by: Markus Heiser <markus.heiser@darmarit.de>

2022-11-05Initialize Redis in searx/webapp.pyAlexandre FLAMENT
settings.yml: * The default URL was unix:///usr/local/searxng-redis/run/redis.sock?db=0 * The default URL is now "false" The default URL makes the log difficult to deal with: if the admin didn't install a Redis instance, the logs record a false error. It worked before because SearXNG initialized the Redis connection when the limiter started. In this commit, SearXNG initializes Redis in searx/webapp.py so various components can use Redis without taking care of the initialization step.
2022-10-14searx.network: add "verify" option to the networksAlexandre Flament
Each network can define a verify option: * false to disable certificate verification * a path to existing certificate. SearXNG uses SSL_CERT_FILE and SSL_CERT_DIR when they are defined see https://www.python-httpx.org/environment_variables/#ssl_cert_file

2022-01-06[fix] remove broken ? search operatorMartin Fischer
The ? search operator has been broken for some time and currently only raises the question why it's still there. ## Context ## The query "Paris !images" searches for "Paris" in the "images" category. Once upon a time Searx supported "Paris ?images" to search for "Paris" in the currently enabled categories and the "images" category. The feature makes sense ... the ? syntax does not. We will hopefully introduce a +!images syntax in the future. Fixes #702.

2022-01-03[enh] introduce categories_as_tabsMartin Fischer
Previously all categories were displayed as search engine tabs. This commit changes that so that only the categories listed under categories_as_tabs in settings.yml are displayed. This lets us introduce more categories without cluttering up the UI. Categories not displayed as tabs can still be searched with !bangs.
2022-01-03[doc] engine tables: show engines in all categoriesMartin Fischer
Previously the documentation grouped the engines by their first category so e.g. YouTube and Invidious were only shown in the in the videos section but not in the music section. This commit fixes this by iterating over searx.engines.categories, which also has the added benefit that the sections are now in the same order as the tabs in the user interface.
