Global registered engine instances.

searx.engines.engine_shortcuts

Simple map of registered shortcuts to name of the engine (or None).

engine_shortcuts[engine.shortcut] = engine.name
searx.engines.load_engine(engine_data: dict[str, Any]) → Engine | types.ModuleType | None[source]

Load engine from engine_data.

Parameters:

engine_data (dict) – Attributes from YAML settings:engines/<engine>

Returns:

initialized namespace of the <engine>.

  1. create a namespace and load module of the <engine>

  2. update namespace with the defaults from ENGINE_DEFAULT_ARGS

  3. update namespace with values from engine_data

If engine is active, return namespace of the engine, otherwise return None.

This function also returns None if initialization of the namespace fails for one of the following reasons:

searx.engines.is_missing_required_attributes(engine: Engine | types.ModuleType)[source]

An attribute is required when its name doesn’t start with _ (underline). Required attributes must not be None.

searx.engines.using_tor_proxy(engine: Engine | types.ModuleType)[source]

Return True if the engine configuration declares to use Tor.

searx.engines.load_engines(engine_list: list[dict[str, Any]])[source]

usage: engine_list = settings['engines']
