engines. Here is an example of a command engine with a description in the about

categories: files

Currently we have two kinds of user documentation:
* the about page[1] which is written in HTML and part of the web
application and can therefore link instance-specific pages
(like e.g. the preferences) via Jinja variables
* the Sphinx documentation[2] which is written in reStructuredText
and cannot link instance-specific pages since it doesn't know
which instance the user is using
The plan is to integrate the user documentation currently in Sphinx
into the application, so that it can also link instance specific pages.
We also want to enable the user documentation to be translated.
This commit implements the first step in this endeavor (see #722).
[1]: searx/templates/__common__/about.html
[2]: docs/user/ (currently served at https://docs.searxng.org/user/)
webapp.py monkey-patches the Flask request global.
This commit adds a type cast so that e.g. Pyright[1]
doesn't show "Cannot access member" errors everywhere.
[1]: https://github.com/microsoft/pyright
* allow not to record metrics (response time, etc...)
* this commit doesn't change the UI. If the metrics are disabled
/stats and /stats/errors will return empty response.
in /preferences, the columns response time and reliability will be empty.
The tab icon names are currently hard coded in the templates.
This commit lets us introduce an icon property in the future, e.g:
categories_as_tabs:
general:
icon: search-outline
Previously we didn't have a good place to put search engines that don't
fit into any of the tab categories. This commit automatically puts
search engines that don't belong to any tab category in an "other"
category, that is only displayed in the user preferences (and not above
search results).
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.
Disable the python code formatting from python-black, where the readability of
code suffers by formatting.

This commit remove the need to update the brand for GIT_URL and GIT_BRANCH:
there are read from the git repository.
It is possible to call python -m searx.version freeze to freeze the current version.
Useful when the code is installed outside git (distro package, docker, etc...)
In the templates and the /config (JSON) the usage of the 'brand.*' name
space is replaced by 'searx.get_setting' function.
- new_issue_url --> get_setting('brand.new_issue_url')
- brand.GIT_URL --> get_setting('brand.git_url')
- brand.PUBLIC_INSTANCES --> get_setting('brand.public_instances')
- brand.DOCS_URL --> get_setting('brand.docs_url')
- brand.ISSUE_URL --> get_setting('brand.issue_url')
- brand.CONTACT_URL --> get_setting('general.contact_url', '')
The macro 'new_issue' from searx/templates/*/messages/no_results.html
is now imported with context::
{% from '__common__/new_issue.html' import new_issue with context %}
To get *public instances URL* from context's 'get_setting()' function::
get_setting('brand.public_instances','')
Macro's prototype does no longer need the 'new_issue_url' argument and has been
changed to::
macro new_issue(engine_name, engine_reliability)

The `url_for` function in the template context is not the one from Flask, it is
the one from `webapp`. The `webapp.url_for_theme` is different from its
namesake of Flask and has it quirks, when called with argument `_external=True`.
The `webapp.url_for_theme` can't handle absolute URLs since it pokes a leading
'/', here is the snippet of the old code::
url = url_for(endpoint, **values)
if settings['server']['base_url']:
if url.startswith('/'):
url = url[1:]
url = urljoin(settings['server']['base_url'], url)
Next drawback of (Flask's) `_external=True` is, that it will not return the HTTP
scheme when searx (the Flask app) listens on http and is proxied by a https
server.
To get the right scheme `HTTP_X_SCHEME` is needed by Flask (werkzeug). Since
this is not provided in every environment (e.g. behind Apache mod_wsgi or the
HTTP header is not fully set for some other reasons) it is recommended to
get *script_name*, *server* and *scheme* from the configured `base_url`. If
`base_url` is specified, then these values from are given preference over any
Flask's generics.
BTW this patch normalize to use `url_for` in the `opensearch.xml` and drop the
need of `host` and `urljoin` in template's context.

Some of our interface locales include uppercase country codes,
which are separated by `_` instead of the more common `-`.
Also, a browser's `Accept-Language` header could be in lowercase.
This commit attempts to normalize those cases so a browser's
language+country codes can better match with our locales.
This solution assumes that our UI locales have nothing more than
language and optionally country. If we ever add a script specific
locale like `zh-Hant-TW` this would have to change to accomodate
that, but the idea would be pretty much the same as this fix.
Without this commit the module searx checks the secret_key value.
With this commit, make docs, utils/standalone_searx.py,
utils/fetch_firefox_version.py works without SEARX_DEBUG=1
