2025-07-11[mod] remove option ui.static_use_hash (cache busting) (#5004)Markus Heiser
Cache busting has caused serious problems for users in the past, here are two examples: - https://github.com/searxng/searxng/issues/4419 - https://github.com/searxng/searxng/issues/4481 And it makes development and deployment significantly more complex because it binds the client side to the server side: - https://github.com/searxng/searxng/pull/4466 In the light of a decoupled development of the WEB clients from the server side: - https://github.com/searxng/searxng/pull/4988 is it appropriate to abandon this feature. In fact, it has been ineffective since #4436 anyway. However, the benefit has always been questionable, since at best only a few kB of data are saved (at least in the context of an image_proxy, the effect is below the detection limit). Ultimately, the client is responsible for caching.

2025-07-09[mod] migrate from Redis to Valkey (#4795)Gaspard d'Hautefeuille
This patch migrates from `redis==5.2.1` [1] to `valkey==6.1.0` [2]. The migration to valkey is necessary because the company behind Redis has decided to abandon the open source license. After experiencing a drop in user numbers, they now want to run it under a dual license again. But this move demonstrates once again how unreliable the company is and how it treats open source developers. To review first, read the docs:: $ make docs.live Follow the instructions to remove redis: - http://0.0.0.0:8000/admin/settings/settings_redis.html Config and install a local valkey DB: - http://0.0.0.0:8000/admin/settings/settings_valkey.html [1] https://pypi.org/project/redis/ [2] https://pypi.org/project/valkey/ Co-authored-by: HLFH <gaspard@dhautefeuille.eu> Co-authored-by: Markus Heiser <markus.heiser@darmarit.de>

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.
