"""Utility for using SearxNG meta search API.
SearxNG is a privacy-friendly free metasearch engine that aggregates results from
`multiple search engines
<https://docs.searxng.org/admin/engines/configured_engines.html>`_ and databases and
supports the `OpenSearch
<https://github.com/dewitt/opensearch/blob/master/opensearch-1-1-draft-6.md>`_
specification.
More detailes on the installtion instructions `here. <../../ecosystem/searx.html>`_
For the search API refer to https://docs.searxng.org/dev/search_api.html
Quick Start
-----------
In order to use this utility you need to provide the searx host. This can be done
by passing the named parameter :attr:`searx_host <SearxSearchWrapper.searx_host>`
or exporting the environment variable SEARX_HOST.
Note: this is the only required parameter.
Then create a searx search instance like this:
.. code-block:: python
from langchain.utilities import SearxSearchWrapper
# when the host starts with `http` SSL is disabled and the connection
# is assumed to be on a private network
searx_host='http://self.hosted'
search = SearxSearchWrapper(searx_host=searx_host)
You can now use the ``search`` instance to query the searx API.
Searching
---------
Use the :meth:`run() <SearxSearchWrapper.run>` and
:meth:`results() <SearxSearchWrapper.results>` methods to query the searx API.
Other methods are are available for convenience.
:class:`SearxResults` is a convenience wrapper around the raw json result.
Example usage of the ``run`` method to make a search:
.. code-block:: python
s.run(query="what is the best search engine?")
Engine Parameters
-----------------
You can pass any `accepted searx search API
<https://docs.searxng.org/dev/search_api.html>`_ parameters to the
:py:class:`SearxSearchWrapper` instance.
In the following example we are using the
:attr:`engines <SearxSearchWrapper.engines>` and the ``language`` parameters:
.. code-block:: python
# assuming the searx host is set as above or exported as an env variable
s = SearxSearchWrapper(engines=['google', 'bing'],
language='es')
Search Tips
-----------
Searx offers a special
`search syntax <https://docs.searxng.org/user/index.html#search-syntax>`_
that can also be used instead of passing engine parameters.
For example the following query:
.. code-block:: python
s = SearxSearchWrapper("langchain library", engines=['github'])
# can also be written as:
s = SearxSearchWrapper("langchain library !github")
# or even:
s = SearxSearchWrapper("langchain library !gh")
In some situations you might want to pass an extra string to the search query.
For example when the `run()` method is called by an agent. The search suffix can
also be used as a way to pass extra parameters to searx or the underlying search
engines.
.. code-block:: python
# select the github engine and pass the search suffix
s = SearchWrapper("langchain library", query_suffix="!gh")
s = SearchWrapper("langchain library")
# select github the conventional google search syntax
s.run("large language models", query_suffix="site:github.com")
*NOTE*: A search suffix can be defined on both the instance and the method level.
The resulting query will be the concatenation of the two with the former taking
precedence.
See `SearxNG Configured Engines
<https://docs.searxng.org/admin/engines/configured_engines.html>`_ and
`SearxNG Search Syntax <https://docs.searxng.org/user/index.html#id1>`_
for more details.
Notes
-----
This wrapper is based on the SearxNG fork https://github.com/searxng/searxng which is
better maintained than the original Searx project and offers more features.
Public searxNG instances often use a rate limiter for API usage, so you might want to
use a self hosted instance and disable the rate limiter.
If you are self-hosting an instance you can customize the rate limiter for your
own network as described `here <https://github.com/searxng/searxng/pull/2129>`_.
For a list of public SearxNG instances see https://searx.space/

To use you need to provide the searx host by passing the named parameter

In some situations you might want to disable SSL verification, for example
if you are running searx locally. You can do this by passing the named parameter
``unsecure``. You can also pass the host url scheme as ``http`` to disable SSL.

searx = SearxSearchWrapper(searx_host="http://localhost:8888")
