Add Searx Support

Open DRSDavidSoft opened this issue 3 years ago • 27 comments

Feature Request

Searx is a privacy respecting meta search engine, that fetches search results from Duckduckgo/Google/Bing/etc.

Many instances of Searx are run by people, however the one that I'm using is ran by @tosdr at the following URL: https://search.tosdr.org/search

Since uBlacklist is super useful in order to block useless results returned by the search engines, I was wondering if it would be possible for it to also block content on Searx websites.

If possible, supporting search.tosdr.org is the only instance that I need, however, supporting other instances of Searx would also be beneficial to anyone using uBlacklist.

Thank you!

As you can see in the issue list, I have little motivation to implement support for search engines I don't use.

You may want to implement SearX support yourself and create a pull request. It's not necessarily difficult. ref: #63

This is how to blacklist a website using UBlock Origin: https://github.com/searx/searx/issues/2001#issuecomment-665107289

Any luck with it? this is a great extension that needs support for searx. We are counting on you!

So.... I think I did something. Searx domain is this one for now: https://searx.be . Problem with searx is that people hosts it and make changes on its domain name without a pattern so to start I added only the one I use. Tested it on firefox and seemed to work. Can you help me make this available on prod? (I'm a complete noob)

@masterofobzene You need to make a pull request to the project to merge your work.

I'm going to work on masterofobzene's fork later on, so I can make a PR. let's keep this issue open.

DRSDavidSoft avatar Mar 08 '22 01:03 DRSDavidSoft

@masterofobzene thanks, also imagine someone download a list from https://searx.space/ ? Since I am currently using Brave, IDK if this will help.

@DRSDavidSoft please add some more info on how Searx can be integrated JS or CSS wise, thanks.

BradKML avatar May 30 '22 01:05 BradKML

Searx was already implemented, but it was not merged due to some issues. I will link for more info later
