"""This engine uses the Lemmy API (https://lemmy.ml/api/v3/search), which is
documented at `lemmy-js-client`_ / `Interface Search`_.  Since Lemmy is
federated, results are from many different, independent lemmy instances, and not
only the official one.

.. _lemmy-js-client: https://join-lemmy.org/api/modules.html
.. _Interface Search: https://join-lemmy.org/api/interfaces/Search.html

Configuration
=============

The engine has the following additional settings:

- :py:obj:`base_url`
- :py:obj:`lemmy_type`

This implementation is used by different lemmy engines in the :ref:`settings.yml
<settings engine>`:

.. code:: yaml

  - name: lemmy communities
    lemmy_type: Communities
    ...
  - name: lemmy users
    lemmy_type: Users
    ...
  - name: lemmy posts
    lemmy_type: Posts
    ...
  - name: lemmy comments
    lemmy_type: Comments
