Since Firefox v123 a template syntax [2] in the rel-self-template is no longer supported / Firefox will report an error:: Firefox could not download the search plugin from: http://127.0.0.1:8888//opensearch.xml?method=GET&autocomplete=google This patch reduce the URL to:: template="http://127.0.0.1:8888/opensearch.xml" [1] https://github.com/dewitt/opensearch/blob/master/opensearch-1-1-draft-6.md#url-rel-values [2] https://github.com/dewitt/opensearch/blob/master/opensearch-1-1-draft-6.md#opensearch-url-template-syntax Closes: https://github.com/searxng/searxng/issues/3227 Signed-off-by: Markus Heiser <markus.heiser@darmarit.de> 2022-08-11T17:04:36Z Markus Heiser markus.heiser@darmarit.de 2022-08-11T16:37:12Z urn:sha1:3b0f9c07b2f007b0767787da80b49827f752f528 Some HTTP-Clients do have issues with the ``opensearch.xml`` from SearXNG (related [1][2]) while other OpenSearch descriptions[3] (e.g. from qwant) work flawles. Inspired by the OpenSearch description from qwant and with informations from the specification[4] the ``opensearch.xml`` has been *improved*. - convert `<Url>` methods from lower case to upper case (`POST`|`GET`) - add `<moz:SearchForm>` and `xmlns:moz="http://www.mozilla.org/2006/browser/search/"` - add `<Query role="example" searchTerms="SearXNG" />` [4] OpenSearch description documents should include at least one Query element of `role="example"` that is expected to return search results. Search clients may use this example query to validate that the search engine is working properly. - modified `<LongName>` to SearXNG - modified `<Description>` the word 'hackable' scares uninitiated users and was removed - add the `type="image/png"` to `<Image>` Test can be done by:: make run Visit http://127.0.0.1:8888/ and add the search engine to your WEB-Browser / test with different WEB-Browser from desktop and Smartphones (are there any iOS user here, please test on Safari and Chrome).
