Normalize reST sources with best practice and KISS in mind. to name a few points: - simplify reST tables - make use of ``literal`` markup for monospace rendering - fix code-blocks for better rendering in HTML - normalize section header markup - limit all lines to a maximum of 79 characters - add option -H to the sudo command used in code blocks - drop useless indentation of lists - ...

One of the biggest advantages of searx is being extremely customizable. But at
|
|
first it can be daunting to newcomers. A barrier of taking advantage of this
|
|
feature is our ugly settings file which is sometimes hard to understand and
|
|
edit.
|
|
|
|
To make self-hosting searx more accessible a new tool is introduced, called
|
|
``searx-admin``. It is a web application which is capable of managing your
|
|
instance and manipulating its settings via a web UI. It aims to replace editing
|
|
of ``settings.yml`` for less experienced administrators or people who prefer
|
|
graphical admin interfaces.

|
|
Since ``searx-admin`` acts as a supervisor for searx, we have decided to
|
|
implement it as a standalone tool instead of part of searx. Another reason for
|
|
making it a standalone tool is that the codebase and dependencies of searx
|
|
should not grow because of a fully optional feature, which does not affect
|
|
existing instances.
