The match_language function sometimes returns incorrect results which is why a
new function get_engine_locale is required.
A bugfix of the match_language is not easily possible, because there is almost
no documentation for it and already the call parameters are undefined. E.g. the
function processes values like the ones from yahoo::
"yahoo": [
"ar",
...
"zh_chs",
"zh_cht"
]
The get_engine_locale has been documented in detail, there is a clear
description of the assumptions as well as the requirements and approximation
rules (read doc-string for more details)::
Argument ``engine_locales`` is a python dict that maps *SearXNG locales* to
corresponding *engine locales*:
<engine>: {
# SearXNG string : engine-string
'ca-ES' : 'ca_ES',
'fr-BE' : 'fr_BE',
'fr-CA' : 'fr_CA',
'fr-CH' : 'fr_CH',
'fr' : 'fr_FR',
...
'pl-PL' : 'pl_PL',
'pt-PT' : 'pt_PT'
}
.. hint::
The *SearXNG locale* string has to be known by babel!
In the following you will find a comparison:
>>> import babel.languages
>>> from searx.utils import match_language
>>> from searx.locales import get_engine_locale
Assume we have an engine that supports the follwoing locales:
>>> lang_list = {
... "zh-CN": "zh_CN",
... "zh-HK": "zh_HK",
... "nl-BE": "nl_BE",
... "fr-CA": "fr_CA",
... }
Assumption:
A. When a user selects a language the results should be optimized according to
the selected language.
B. When user selects a language and a territory the results should be
optimized with first priority on territory and second on language.
----
Example: (Assumption A.)
A user selects region 'zh-TW' which should end in zh_HK
hint:
CN is 'Hans' and HK ('Hant') fits better to TW ('Hant')
>>> get_engine_locale('zh-TW', lang_list)
'zh_HK'
>>> lang_list[match_language('zh-TW', lang_list)]
'zh_CN'
----
Example: (Assumption A.)
A user selects only the language 'zh' which should end in CN
>>> get_engine_locale('zh', lang_list)
'zh_CN'
>>> lang_list[match_language('zh', lang_list)]
'zh_CN'
----
Example: (Assumption B.)
A user selects region 'fr-BE' which should end in nl-BE
hint:
priority should be on the territory the user selected. If the user
prefers 'fr' he will select 'fr' without a region tag.
>>> get_engine_locale('fr-BE', lang_list, default='unknown')
'nl_BE'
>>> match_language('fr-BE', lang_list, fallback='unknown')
'fr-CA'
----
Example: (Assumption A.)
A user selects only the language 'fr' which should end in fr_CA
>>> get_engine_locale('fr', lang_list)
'fr_CA'
>>> lang_list[match_language('fr', lang_list)]
'fr_CA'
----
The difference in priority on the territory is best shown with a engine that
supports the following locales:
>>> lang_list = {
... "fr-FR": "fr_FR",
... "fr-CA": "fr_CA",
... "en-GB": "en_GB",
... "nl-BE": "nl_BE",
... }
----
Example: (Assumption A.)
A user selects only a language
>>> get_engine_locale('en', lang_list)
'en_GB'
>>> match_language('en', lang_list)
'en-GB'
hint: the engine supports fr_FR and fr_CA since no territory is given, fr_FR
takes priority ..
>>> get_engine_locale('fr', lang_list)
'fr_FR'
>>> lang_list[match_language('fr', lang_list)]
'fr_FR'
----
Example: (Assumption B.)
A user selects region 'fr-BE' which should end in nl-BE
>>> get_engine_locale('fr-BE', lang_list)
'nl_BE'
>>> lang_list[match_language('fr-BE', lang_list)]
'fr_FR'
----
If the user selects a language and there are two locales like the following:
>>> lang_list = {
... "fr-BE": "fr_BE",
... "fr-CH": "fr_CH",
... }
>>>
>>> get_engine_locale('fr', lang_list)
'fr_BE'
>>> lang_list[match_language('fr', lang_list)]
'fr_BE'
Looks like both functions return the same value, but match_language depends on the
order of the dictionary (which is not predictable):
>>> lang_list = {
... "fr-CH": "fr_CH",
... "fr-BE": "fr_BE",
... }
>>> get_engine_locale('fr', lang_list)
'fr_BE'
>>> lang_list[match_language('fr', lang_list)]
'fr_CH'
>>>
The get_engine_locale selects the locale by looking at the "population percent"
and this percentage has an higher amount in BE (68.%) compared to CH (21%)

Neeva is "the world's first ad-free, private search engine" and uses data from Apple, Bing, Yelp and "others".
They claim to crawl "hundreds of millions" of URLs a day (https://twitter.com/Neeva/status/1536447373903335426).
Some HTTP-Clients do have issues with the ``opensearch.xml`` from SearXNG
(related [1][2]) while other OpenSearch descriptions[3] (e.g. from qwant) work
flawles.
Inspired by the OpenSearch description from qwant and with informations from the
specification[4] the ``opensearch.xml`` has been *improved*.
- convert `<Url>` methods from lower case to upper case (`POST`|`GET`)
- add `<moz:SearchForm>` and `xmlns:moz="http://www.mozilla.org/2006/browser/search/"`
- add `<Query role="example" searchTerms="SearXNG" />` [4]
OpenSearch description documents should include at least one Query element of
`role="example"` that is expected to return search results. Search clients may
use this example query to validate that the search engine is working properly.
- modified `<LongName>` to SearXNG
- modified `<Description>` the word 'hackable' scares uninitiated users and was removed
- add the `type="image/png"` to `<Image>`
Test can be done by::
make run
Visit http://127.0.0.1:8888/ and add the search engine to your WEB-Browser /
test with different WEB-Browser from desktop and Smartphones (are there any iOS
user here, please test on Safari and Chrome).

This implements the Deepl Translation engine. It works nearly like lingva but
directly to the deepl API. This api only needs a to-lang, from-lang is a fake
by now.
There is a free option to use [1].
[1] https://www.deepl.com/pro-api?cta=header-pro-api for registering a free account.
yep.com is still in beta, the api.yep.com does not have paging support. There
is only a 'limit' argument with a maximum of 100 results.
yep.com seems fast; there is nor need for a timeout of 12 sec.
The API returns JSON nevertheless what the HTTP header is, the "show more"
button on yep.com's web site does not set a special HTTP Accept header.
FYI: The index does not support languages, the WEB UI does not offer a language
selection of the results and the entire index seems in English.

Most engines that support languages (and regions) use the Accept-Language from
the WEB browser to build a response that fits to the language (and region).

Some administrators may want to hide the link to public_instances: If you run a
private instance for a company that wants there employees to use the private
instance instead of any of the public instances.
Add a new setting: general.donation_url
By default the value is https://docs.searxng.org/donate.html
When the value is false, the link is hidden
When the value is true, the link goes to the infopage donation,
the administrator can create a custom page.

URL for the logo is referenced twice:
* in index.html for preloading: it contains the hash for cache busting (when static_use_hash: true)
* in searxng.min.css: to actually display the image. The URL doesn't contain the hash.
So the image preload actually loads twice the same image.
This commit removed the image preloading.
This is workaround: the real fix is to be able to use the URL with the hash in the CSS.
For keyboard navigation the highlightResult() function in keyboard.js steals the
focus. On a mouse click event (non keyboard action) the focus should resist
where it is, otherwise a marked region gets lost. This is the reason why text
can't be selected when using simple theme with JS enabled.

To improve modularization this patch:
- moves *locale* related implementation from the webapp.py application to the
locale.py module.
- The initialization of the locales is now done in the application (webapp) and
is no longer done while importing searx.locales.
In the searx.locales module a new dictionary named `LOCALE_BEST_MATCH` has been
added. In this dictionary we can map languages without a translation to
languages we have a translation for.
To fix#1303 zh-HK has been mapped to zh-Hant-TW (we do not need additional
translations of traditional Chinese)
