valkey:
¶
A Valkey DB can be connected by an URL, in section Valkey DB you will find a description to test your valkey connection in SearXNG.
url
$SEARXNG_VALKEY_URL
URL to connect valkey database. There are several ways to specify a database number:
valkey://[[username]:[password]]@localhost:6379/0 valkeys://[[username]:[password]]@localhost:6379/0 unix://[[username]:[password]]@/path/to/socket.sock?db=0
When using sockets, don’t forget to check the access rights on the socket:
ls -la /usr/local/searxng-valkey/run/valkey.sock srwxrwx--- 1 searxng-valkey searxng-valkey ... /usr/local/searxng-valkey/run/valkey.sock
In this example read/write access is given to the searxng-valkey group. To get access rights to valkey instance (the socket), your SearXNG (or even your developer) account needs to be added to the searxng-valkey group.
Valkey Developer Notes¶
