2026-07-15[fix] results: display internationalized domain names human-friendlyBnyro
Some search engines encode domains that contain special characters in the IDN format, i.e. by using Punycode (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Punycode). This means that domains formatted like that are not human readable and thus very unintuive. Also, as only some engines use Punycode, this often causes a result to appear multiple times, once with a Punycode domain (e.g. xn--allestrungen-9ib.de), and once with a normal domain (e.g. allestörungen.de). Always formatting the domains nicely has the caveat that the official sites are harder to distinguish from malicious clones that just swapped out some characters by using Punycode, e.g. replaced `a` with `á`. I don't think that will be much of an issue though - I don't think Punycode results previously stopped users from clicking the link, and I also think that most search engines filter out such bad results or don't even have them indexed.

2026-05-25[unbload] drop meaningless field ``number_of_results_xpath`` from results ↵Markus Heiser
(#6130) In the result-list, the ``number_of_results`` indicate the number of hits in the Index, they do not indicate how many results are in the answer. In the past, search engines such as google or ddg had an indication on the first page of a search term of how many hits there were for this term in total in their index. This info was added up in SearXNG and delivered under ``number_of_results``. Nowadays the search engines no longer indicate how many hits there are in the index and so this field in SearXNG is also superfluous. - https://github.com/searxng/searxng/issues/2457#issuecomment-2566181574 - https://github.com/searxng/searxng/issues/2987 - https://github.com/searxng/searxng/issues/5034 Signed-off-by: Markus Heiser <markus.heiser@darmarit.de>
2026-04-28[fix] Result.defaults_from() inverted logic (#6019)Fabian Freund
The bug was introduced in commit 8769b7c6d (typification of result items); this patch fixes the bug and also addresses the peculiarity that fields can be set but contain no *usable* value: If a field is set (exists) but contains an empty string or the value ``None``, it is also considered *not set*. This also ensures that an integer 0 is evaluated *as set*! Co-Authored: Markus Heiser <markus.heiser@darmarit.de>

2025-10-20[mod] typification of SearXNG: add new result type FileMarkus Heiser
This PR adds a new result type: File Python class: searx/result_types/file.py Jinja template: searx/templates/simple/result_templates/file.html CSS (less) client/simple/src/less/result_types/file.less Class 'File' (singular) replaces template 'files.html' (plural). The renaming was carried out because there is only one file (singular) in a result. Not to be confused with the category 'files' where in multiple results can exist. As mentioned in issue [1], the class '.category-files' was removed from the CSS and the stylesheet was adopted in result_types/file.less (there based on the templates and no longer based on the category).

2025-03-29[refactor] migrate plugins from "module" to class SXNGPluginMarkus Heiser
This patch brings two major changes: - ``Result.filter_urls(..)`` to pass a filter function for URL fields - The ``enabled_plugins:`` section in SearXNG's settings do no longer exists. To understand plugin development compile documentation: $ make docs.clean docs.live and read http://0.0.0.0:8000/dev/plugins/development.html There is no longer a distinction between built-in and external plugin, all plugins are registered via the settings in the ``plugins:`` section. In SearXNG, plugins can be registered via a fully qualified class name. A configuration (`PluginCfg`) can be transferred to the plugin, e.g. to activate it by default / *opt-in* or *opt-out* from user's point of view. built-in plugins ================ The built-in plugins are all located in the namespace `searx.plugins`. .. code:: yaml plugins: searx.plugins.calculator.SXNGPlugin: active: true searx.plugins.hash_plugin.SXNGPlugin: active: true searx.plugins.self_info.SXNGPlugin: active: true searx.plugins.tracker_url_remover.SXNGPlugin: active: true searx.plugins.unit_converter.SXNGPlugin: active: true searx.plugins.ahmia_filter.SXNGPlugin: active: true searx.plugins.hostnames.SXNGPlugin: active: true searx.plugins.oa_doi_rewrite.SXNGPlugin: active: false searx.plugins.tor_check.SXNGPlugin: active: false external plugins ================ SearXNG supports *external plugins* / there is no need to install one, SearXNG runs out of the box. - Only show green hosted results: https://github.com/return42/tgwf-searx-plugins/ To get a developer installation in a SearXNG developer environment: .. code:: sh $ git clone git@github.com:return42/tgwf-searx-plugins.git $ ./manage pyenv.cmd python -m \ pip install -e tgwf-searx-plugins To register the plugin in SearXNG add ``only_show_green_results.SXNGPlugin`` to the ``plugins:``: .. code:: yaml plugins: # ... only_show_green_results.SXNGPlugin: active: false Result.filter_urls(..) ====================== The ``Result.filter_urls(..)`` can be used to filter and/or modify URL fields.

2025-01-28[refactor] typification of SearXNG (initial) / result items (part 1)Markus Heiser
Typification of SearXNG ======================= This patch introduces the typing of the results. The why and how is described in the documentation, please generate the documentation .. $ make docs.clean docs.live and read the following articles in the "Developer documentation": - result types --> http://0.0.0.0:8000/dev/result_types/index.html The result types are available from the `searx.result_types` module. The following have been implemented so far: - base result type: `searx.result_type.Result` --> http://0.0.0.0:8000/dev/result_types/base_result.html - answer results --> http://0.0.0.0:8000/dev/result_types/answer.html including the type for translations (inspired by #3925). For all other types (which still need to be set up in subsequent PRs), template documentation has been created for the transition period. Doc of the fields used in Templates =================================== The template documentation is the basis for the typing and is the first complete documentation of the results (needed for engine development). It is the "working paper" (the plan) with which further typifications can be implemented in subsequent PRs. - https://github.com/searxng/searxng/issues/357 Answer Templates ================ With the new (sub) types for `Answer`, the templates for the answers have also been revised, `Translation` are now displayed with collapsible entries (inspired by #3925). !en-de dog Plugins & Answerer ================== The implementation for `Plugin` and `Answer` has been revised, see documentation: - Plugin: http://0.0.0.0:8000/dev/plugins/index.html - Answerer: http://0.0.0.0:8000/dev/answerers/index.html With `AnswerStorage` and `AnswerStorage` to manage those items (in follow up PRs, `ArticleStorage`, `InfoStorage` and .. will be implemented) Autocomplete ============ The autocompletion had a bug where the results from `Answer` had not been shown in the past. To test activate autocompletion and try search terms for which we have answerers - statistics: type `min 1 2 3` .. in the completion list you should find an entry like `[de] min(1, 2, 3) = 1` - random: type `random uuid` .. in the completion list, the first item is a random UUID Extended Types ============== SearXNG extends e.g. the request and response types of flask and httpx, a module has been set up for type extensions: - Extended Types --> http://0.0.0.0:8000/dev/extended_types.html Unit-Tests ========== The unit tests have been completely revised. In the previous implementation, the runtime (the global variables such as `searx.settings`) was not initialized before each test, so the runtime environment with which a test ran was always determined by the tests that ran before it. This was also the reason why we sometimes had to observe non-deterministic errors in the tests in the past: - https://github.com/searxng/searxng/issues/2988 is one example for the Runtime issues, with non-deterministic behavior .. - https://github.com/searxng/searxng/pull/3650 - https://github.com/searxng/searxng/pull/3654 - https://github.com/searxng/searxng/pull/3642#issuecomment-2226884469 - https://github.com/searxng/searxng/pull/3746#issuecomment-2300965005 Why msgspec.Struct ================== We have already discussed typing based on e.g. `TypeDict` or `dataclass` in the past: - https://github.com/searxng/searxng/pull/1562/files - https://gist.github.com/dalf/972eb05e7a9bee161487132a7de244d2 - https://github.com/searxng/searxng/pull/1412/files - https://github.com/searxng/searxng/pull/1356 In my opinion, TypeDict is unsuitable because the objects are still dictionaries and not instances of classes / the `dataclass` are classes but ... The `msgspec.Struct` combine the advantages of typing, runtime behaviour and also offer the option of (fast) serializing (incl. type check) the objects. Currently not possible but conceivable with `msgspec`: Outsourcing the engines into separate processes, what possibilities this opens up in the future is left to the imagination! Internally, we have already defined that it is desirable to decouple the development of the engines from the development of the SearXNG core / The serialization of the `Result` objects is a prerequisite for this. HINT: The threads listed above were the template for this PR, even though the implementation here is based on msgspec. They should also be an inspiration for the following PRs of typification, as the models and implementations can provide a good direction. Why just one commit? ==================== I tried to create several (thematically separated) commits, but gave up at some point ... there are too many things to tackle at once / The comprehensibility of the commits would not be improved by a thematic separation. On the contrary, we would have to make multiple changes at the same places and the goal of a change would be vaguely recognizable in the fog of the commits.
