2025-01-28[refactor] typification of SearXNG / EngineResultsMarkus Heiser
In [1] and [2] we discussed the need of a Result.results property and how we can avoid unclear code. This patch implements a class for the reslut-lists of engines:: searx.result_types.EngineResults A simple example for the usage in engine development:: from searx.result_types import EngineResults ... def response(resp) -> EngineResults: res = EngineResults() ... res.add( res.types.Answer(answer="lorem ipsum ..", url="https://example.org") ) ... return res [1] https://github.com/searxng/searxng/pull/4183#pullrequestreview-257400034 [2] https://github.com/searxng/searxng/pull/4183#issuecomment-2614301580 Signed-off-by: Markus Heiser <markus.heiser@darmarit.de>
2025-01-28[refactor] typification of SearXNG (initial) / result items (part 1)Markus Heiser
Typification of SearXNG ======================= This patch introduces the typing of the results. The why and how is described in the documentation, please generate the documentation .. $ make docs.clean docs.live and read the following articles in the "Developer documentation": - result types --> http://0.0.0.0:8000/dev/result_types/index.html The result types are available from the `searx.result_types` module. The following have been implemented so far: - base result type: `searx.result_type.Result` --> http://0.0.0.0:8000/dev/result_types/base_result.html - answer results --> http://0.0.0.0:8000/dev/result_types/answer.html including the type for translations (inspired by #3925). For all other types (which still need to be set up in subsequent PRs), template documentation has been created for the transition period. Doc of the fields used in Templates =================================== The template documentation is the basis for the typing and is the first complete documentation of the results (needed for engine development). It is the "working paper" (the plan) with which further typifications can be implemented in subsequent PRs. - https://github.com/searxng/searxng/issues/357 Answer Templates ================ With the new (sub) types for `Answer`, the templates for the answers have also been revised, `Translation` are now displayed with collapsible entries (inspired by #3925). !en-de dog Plugins & Answerer ================== The implementation for `Plugin` and `Answer` has been revised, see documentation: - Plugin: http://0.0.0.0:8000/dev/plugins/index.html - Answerer: http://0.0.0.0:8000/dev/answerers/index.html With `AnswerStorage` and `AnswerStorage` to manage those items (in follow up PRs, `ArticleStorage`, `InfoStorage` and .. will be implemented) Autocomplete ============ The autocompletion had a bug where the results from `Answer` had not been shown in the past. To test activate autocompletion and try search terms for which we have answerers - statistics: type `min 1 2 3` .. in the completion list you should find an entry like `[de] min(1, 2, 3) = 1` - random: type `random uuid` .. in the completion list, the first item is a random UUID Extended Types ============== SearXNG extends e.g. the request and response types of flask and httpx, a module has been set up for type extensions: - Extended Types --> http://0.0.0.0:8000/dev/extended_types.html Unit-Tests ========== The unit tests have been completely revised. In the previous implementation, the runtime (the global variables such as `searx.settings`) was not initialized before each test, so the runtime environment with which a test ran was always determined by the tests that ran before it. This was also the reason why we sometimes had to observe non-deterministic errors in the tests in the past: - https://github.com/searxng/searxng/issues/2988 is one example for the Runtime issues, with non-deterministic behavior .. - https://github.com/searxng/searxng/pull/3650 - https://github.com/searxng/searxng/pull/3654 - https://github.com/searxng/searxng/pull/3642#issuecomment-2226884469 - https://github.com/searxng/searxng/pull/3746#issuecomment-2300965005 Why msgspec.Struct ================== We have already discussed typing based on e.g. `TypeDict` or `dataclass` in the past: - https://github.com/searxng/searxng/pull/1562/files - https://gist.github.com/dalf/972eb05e7a9bee161487132a7de244d2 - https://github.com/searxng/searxng/pull/1412/files - https://github.com/searxng/searxng/pull/1356 In my opinion, TypeDict is unsuitable because the objects are still dictionaries and not instances of classes / the `dataclass` are classes but ... The `msgspec.Struct` combine the advantages of typing, runtime behaviour and also offer the option of (fast) serializing (incl. type check) the objects. Currently not possible but conceivable with `msgspec`: Outsourcing the engines into separate processes, what possibilities this opens up in the future is left to the imagination! Internally, we have already defined that it is desirable to decouple the development of the engines from the development of the SearXNG core / The serialization of the `Result` objects is a prerequisite for this. HINT: The threads listed above were the template for this PR, even though the implementation here is based on msgspec. They should also be an inspiration for the following PRs of typification, as the models and implementations can provide a good direction. Why just one commit? ==================== I tried to create several (thematically separated) commits, but gave up at some point ... there are too many things to tackle at once / The comprehensibility of the commits would not be improved by a thematic separation. On the contrary, we would have to make multiple changes at the same places and the goal of a change would be vaguely recognizable in the fog of the commits.

2024-05-16[mod] simple theme: drop img_src from default resultsMarkus Heiser
The use of img_src AND thumbnail in the default results makes no sense (only a thumbnail is needed). In the current state this is rather confusing, because img_src is displayed like a thumbnail (small) and thumbnail is displayed like an image (large).

2023-08-26[fix] google engine: don't overspecify the search query to GoogleMarkus Heiser
The method EngineTraits.get_region(..) returns engine's region string that **best fits** to SearXNG's locale. This means it returns a region (country) if only a language is set in the locale. By example the method returns for a locale tag `es` a region `ES`. Google's search parameter `cr` restricts search results to documents originating in a particular country / in case of a locale tag (language) as described above, this argument should be unset in the query send to Google.

2023-06-26[fix] Google API changedMarkus Heiser
It seems that Google is rolling out a modified WEB API [1][2]. In the past there was only the UI language in the `hl` argument but nowadays it seems a combination of the UI language and the "search region" is mixed in this argument and the `gl` argument has been removed. I'm very surprised that google is starting to mix the parameters of the UI with the parameters of the search index. This patch modifies the get_google_info(..) function. Beside Google-WEB this function is also used by other Google services, here are some examples to test region & language of .. - Google-WEB: `!go dragon boat :en-CA` - Google-News: `!gon dragon boat :en-CA` - Google-Videos: `!gov bmw :en-CA` - Goolge-Images `!goi bmw :en-CA` - [1] https://github.com/searxng/searxng/issues/2515#issuecomment-1606294635 - [2] https://github.com/searxng/searxng/issues/2515#issuecomment-1607150817 Signed-off-by: Markus Heiser <markus.heiser@darmarit.de>

2023-03-24[mod] Google: reversed engineered & upgrade to data_type: traits_v1Markus Heiser
Partial reverse engineering of the Google engines including a improved language and region handling based on the engine.traits_v1 data. When ever possible the implementations of the Google engines try to make use of the async REST APIs. The get_lang_info() has been generalized to a get_google_info() function / especially the region handling has been improved by adding the cr parameter. searx/data/engine_traits.json Add data type "traits_v1" generated by the fetch_traits() functions from: - Google (WEB), - Google images, - Google news, - Google scholar and - Google videos and remove data from obsolete data type "supported_languages". A traits.custom type that maps region codes to *supported_domains* is fetched from https://www.google.com/supported_domains searx/autocomplete.py: Reversed engineered autocomplete from Google WEB. Supports Google's languages and subdomains. The old API suggestqueries.google.com/complete has been replaced by the async REST API: https://{subdomain}/complete/search?{args} searx/engines/google.py Reverse engineering and extensive testing .. - fetch_traits(): Fetch languages & regions from Google properties. - always use the async REST API (formally known as 'use_mobile_ui') - use *supported_domains* from traits - improved the result list by fetching './/div[@data-content-feature]' and parsing the type of the various *content features* --> thumbnails are added searx/engines/google_images.py Reverse engineering and extensive testing .. - fetch_traits(): Fetch languages & regions from Google properties. - use *supported_domains* from traits - if exists, freshness_date is added to the result - issue 1864: result list has been improved a lot (due to the new cr parameter) searx/engines/google_news.py Reverse engineering and extensive testing .. - fetch_traits(): Fetch languages & regions from Google properties. *supported_domains* is not needed but a ceid list has been added. - different region handling compared to Google WEB - fixed for various languages & regions (due to the new ceid parameter) / avoid CONSENT page - Google News do no longer support time range - result list has been fixed: XPath of pub_date and pub_origin searx/engines/google_videos.py - fetch_traits(): Fetch languages & regions from Google properties. - use *supported_domains* from traits - add paging support - implement a async request ('asearch': 'arc' & 'async': 'use_ac:true,_fmt:html') - simplified code (thanks to '_fmt:html' request) - issue 1359: fixed xpath of video length data searx/engines/google_scholar.py - fetch_traits(): Fetch languages & regions from Google properties. - use *supported_domains* from traits - request(): include patents & citations - response(): fixed CAPTCHA detection (Scholar has its own CATCHA manager) - hardening XPath to iterate over results - fixed XPath of pub_type (has been change from gs_ct1 to gs_cgt2 class) - issue 1769 fixed: new request implementation is no longer incompatible Signed-off-by: Markus Heiser <markus.heiser@darmarit.de>
