was previously a Dict with two or three keys: name, category, from_bang
make clear that this is a engine reference (see tests/unit/test_search.py for example)
all variables using this class are renamed accordingly.
A new "base" engine called command is introduced. It is the foundation for all command line engines for now.
You can use this engine to create your own command line engine.
Add some engines (commented out to make sure no one enables anything accidentally):
* git grep: This engine lets you grep in the searx repo.
* locate: If locate is installed and initialized, you can search on the FS.
* find: You can find files with a specific name from where you started searx.
* pattern search in files: This engine utilizes the command fgrep.
* regex search in files: This engine runs `grep` to find a file based on its contents.
* Made first attempt at the bangs redirects plugin.
* It redirects. But in a messy way via javascript.
* First version with custom plugin
* Added a help page and a operator to see all the bangs available.
* Changed to .format because of support
* Changed to .format because of support
* Removed : in params
* Fixed path to json file and changed bang operator
* Changed bang operator back to &

commit 2c6531b2 does not only break the unit test, it is a significant change of
the data model and the searx search-syntax model (UI) without any discussion nor
documentation.
At the end, adding routes to instant answers is a nice feature but commit
2c6531b2 leaf some questions open.
In that sense, this patch is only a hotfix not a assessment.

This PR fixes the result count from bing which was throwing an (hidden) error and add a validation to avoid reading more results than avalaible.
For example :
If there is 100 results from some search and we try to get results from 120 to 130, Bing will send back the results from 0 to 10 and no error. If we compare results count with the first parameter of the request we can avoid this "invalid" results.
The new url parameter "timeout_limit" set timeout limit defined in second.
Example "timeout_limit=1.5" means the timeout limit is 1.5 seconds.
In addition, the query can start with <[number] to set the timeout limit.
For number between 0 and 99, the unit is the second :
Example: "<30 searx" means the timeout limit is 3 seconds
For number above 100, the unit is the millisecond:
Example: "<850 searx" means the timeout is 850 milliseconds.
In addition, there is a new optional setting: outgoing.max_request_timeout.
If not set, the user timeout can't go above searx configuration (as before: the max timeout of selected engine for a query).
If the value is set, the user can set a timeout between 0 and max_request_timeout using
<[number] or timeout_limit query parameter.

Updated version of PR #1413 from @isj-privacore
Characters that were not ASCII were incorrectly decoded.
Add an helper function: searx.utils.ecma_unescape (Python implementation of unescape Javascript function).
* Search URL is https://www.wikidata.org/w/index.php?{query}&ns0=1 (with ns0=1 at the end to avoid an HTTP redirection)
* url_detail: remove the disabletidy=1 deprecated parameter
* Add eval_xpath function: compile once for all xpath.
* Add get_id_cache: retrieve all HTML with an id, avoid the slow to procress dynamic xpath '//div[@id="{propertyid}"]'.replace('{propertyid}')
* Create an etree.HTMLParser() instead of using the global one (see #1575)
Fetch complete JSON data block, use legend to extract images.
Unquote urlencoded strings.
Add image description as 'content'.
Add 'img_format' and 'source' data (needs PR #1567 to enable this data to be displayed).
Show images which lack ownerid instead of discarding them.
use data from embedded JSON to improve results (e.g. real page title), add image format and source info (see PR #1567), improve paging logic (it now works)
Server Timing specification: https://www.w3.org/TR/server-timing/
In the browser Dev Tools, focus on the main request, there are the responses per engine in the Timing tab.
Add match_language function in utils to match any user given
language code with a list of engine's supported languages.
Also add language_aliases dict on each engine to translate
standard language codes into the custom codes used by the engine.
If no language is specified, bing returns results with multiple languages
for one query which isn't really useful. Setting english as default
insted if nothing.
- pre_search(request, search)
- post_search(request, search)
- on_result(request, search, result)
with
- request is the Flask request
- search a searx.Search instance
- result a searx result as usual
Purposes :
- isolate the plugins calls
- distinction between parsing the web request and running the search (Search class). To be able to test code easily, to run searx code outside a web server, to filter the search query parameters with plugins more easily, etc...
Details :
- request.request_data contains request.form or request.args (initialize inside pre_request() function)
- Query class is renamed RawTextQuery
- SearchQuery class defines all search parameters
- get_search_query_from_webapp create a SearchQuery instance (basically the previous Search.__init__ code)
- Search class and SearchWithPlugins class takes a SearchQuery instance as class constructor parameter
- SearchWithPlugins class inherites from Search class, and run plugins
- A dedicated function search_with_plugins executes plugins to have a well define locals() (which is used by the plugins code).
- All plugins code is executed inside the try...except block (webapp.py, index function)
- advanced_search HTTP parameter value stays in webapp.py (it is only part of UI)
- multiple calls to result_container.get_ordered_results() doesn't compute the order multiple time (note : this method was call only once before)
- paging value is stored in the result_container class (compute in the extend method)
- test about engine.suspend_end_time is done during search method call (instead of __init__)
- check that the format parameter value is one of these : html, rss, json, rss (before the html value was assumed but some text formatting wasn't not done)
