[mod] drop fasttext-predict (#5795)

2026-03-06T14:40:44Z

Removes the `fasttext-predict` dependency and the language detection code. If a user now selects `auto` for the search language, the detected language now falls back directly to the `Accept-Language` header sent by the browser (which was already the fallback when fasttext returned no result). - fasttext's [language detection is unreliable](https://github.com/searxng/searxng/issues/4195) for some languages, especially short search queries, and in particular for queries containing proper names which is a common case. - `fasttext-predict` consumes [significant memory](https://github.com/searxng/searxng/pull/1969#issuecomment-1345366676) without offering users much real value. - the upstream fasttext project was archived by Meta in 2024 - users already have two better alternatives: the `Accept-Language` header and the search-syntax language prefix (e.g. `:fr` or `:de`).

[mod] addition of various type hints / tbc

2025-09-03T11:37:36Z

- pyright configuration [1]_ - stub files: types-lxml [2]_ - addition of various type hints - enable use of new type system features on older Python versions [3]_ - ``.tool-versions`` - set python to lowest version we support (3.10.18) [4]_: Older versions typically lack some typing features found in newer Python versions. Therefore, for local type checking (before commit), it is necessary to use the older Python interpreter. .. [1] https://docs.basedpyright.com/v1.20.0/configuration/config-files/ ..

[mod] pylint all files with one profile / drop PYLINT_SEARXNG_DISABLE_OPTION

2024-03-11T13:55:38Z

In the past, some files were tested with the standard profile, others with a profile in which most of the messages were switched off ... some files were not checked at all. - ``PYLINT_SEARXNG_DISABLE_OPTION`` has been abolished - the distinction ``# lint: pylint`` is no longer necessary - the pylint tasks have been reduced from three to two 1. ./searx/engines -> lint engines with additional builtins 2. ./searx ./searxng_extra ./tests -> lint all other python files Signed-off-by: Markus Heiser

Revert "[fix] limit maximum page number of a search query to page 50." (#2979)

[mod] move language recognition to get_search_query_from_webapp

2023-04-15T20:23:33Z

To set the language from language recognition and hold the value selected by the client, the previous implementation creates a copy of the SearchQuery object and manipulates the SearchQuery object by calling function replace_auto_language(). This patch tries to implement a similar functionality in a more central place, in function get_search_query_from_webapp() when the SearchQuery object is build up. Additional this patch uses the language preferred by the client, if language recognition does not have a match / the existing implementation does not care about client preferences and uses 'all' in case of no match.

Add "Auto-detected" as a language.

2023-02-17T15:17:36Z

When the user choose "Auto-detected", the choice remains on the following queries. The detected language is displayed. For example "Auto-detected (en)": * the next query language is going to be auto detected * for the current query, the detected language is English. This replace the autodetect_search_language plugin.
