2023-03-24[mod] DuckDuckGo: reversed engineered & upgrade to data_type: traits_v1Markus Heiser
Partial reverse engineering of the DuckDuckGo (DDG) engines including a improved language and region handling based on the enigne.traits_v1 data. - DDG Lite - DDG Instant Answer API - DDG Images - DDG Weather docs/src/searx.engine.duckduckgo.rst: Online documentation of the DDG engines (make docs.live) searx/data/engine_traits.json Add data type "traits_v1" generated by the fetch_traits() functions from: - "duckduckgo" (WEB), - "duckduckgo images" and - "duckduckgo weather" and remove data from obsolete data type "supported_languages". searx/autocomplete.py: Reversed engineered Autocomplete from DDG. Supports DDG's languages. searx/engines/duckduckgo.py: - fetch_traits(): Fetch languages & regions from DDG. - get_ddg_lang(): Get DDG's language identifier from SearXNG's locale. DDG defines its languages by region codes. DDG-Lite does not offer a language selection to the user, only a region can be selected by the user. - Cache ``vqd`` value: The vqd value depends on the query string and is needed for the follow up pages or the images loaded by a XMLHttpRequest (DDG images). The ``vqd`` value of a search term is stored for 10min in the redis DB. - DDG Lite engine: reversed engineered request method with improved Language and region support and better ``vqd`` handling. searx/engines/duckduckgo_definitions.py: DDG Instant Answer API The *instant answers* API does not support languages, or at least we could not find out how language support should work. It seems that most of the features are based on English terms. searx/engines/duckduckgo_images.py: DDG Images Reversed engineered request method. Improved language and region handling based on cookies and the enigne.traits_v1 data. Response: add image format to the result list searx/engines/duckduckgo_weather.py: DDG Weather Improved language and region handling based on cookies and the enigne.traits_v1 data.

2023-03-24[mod] Startpage: reversed engineered & upgrade to data_type: traits_v1Markus Heiser
One reason for the often seen CAPTCHA of the Startpage requests are the incomplete requests SearXNG sends to startpage.com: this patch is a complete new implementation of the ``request()`` function, reversed engineered from the Startpage's search form. The new implementation: - use traits of data_type: traits_v1 and drop deprecated data_type: supported_languages - adds time-range support - adds save-search support - fix searxng/searxng/issues 1884 - fix searxng/searxng/issues 1081 --> improvements to avoid CAPTCHA In preparation for more categories (News, Images, Videos ..) from Startpage, the variable ``startpage_categ`` was set up. The default value is ``web`` and other categories from Startpage are not yet implemented. Signed-off-by: Markus Heiser <markus.heiser@darmarit.de>
2023-03-24[mod] wikipedia & wikidata: upgrade to data_type: traits_v1Markus Heiser
BTW this fix an issue in wikipedia: SearXNG's locales zh-TW and zh-HK are now using language `zh-classical` from wikipedia (and not `zh`). Signed-off-by: Markus Heiser <markus.heiser@darmarit.de>

2023-03-24[mod] Peertube: re-engineered & upgrade to data_type: traits_v1Markus Heiser
- fetch_traits(): Fetch languages from peertube's search-index source code. [mod] Include migration of the request methode from 'supported_languages' to 'traits' (EngineTraits) object. [fix] old supported_languages_url is no longer valid since the sources has been moved to a different path. - fixed code to pass pylint - request(): complete re-implementation based on the API docs [1] - response(): complete re-implementation, adds serveral fields missed before - add source code documentation [1] https://docs.joinpeertube.org/api-rest-reference.html#tag/Search/operation/searchVideos Signed-off-by: Markus Heiser <markus.heiser@darmarit.de>
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>
