The recent change to cast bool config vars as ints to handle a '0' or
'1' value was shortsighted, since it doesn't allow for instances where
the variable is set to an empty value (or '' or any invalid/non-int
value).
This introduces a read_config_bool method for reading values that should
be a '0' or '1', but will default to False if not a digit (otherwise the
value will be cast as bool(int(value)) if "value" is a digit str).
Fixes#288
Config boolean environment variables need to be cast to ints, since
they are set or unset using 0 and 1. Previously they were interpreted as
(pseudocode) read_var(name, default=False), which meant that setting
CONFIG_VAR=0 would enable that variable since Python reads environment
variables as strings, and '0' is truthy. This updates the previous logic
to (still pseudocode) int(read_var(name, default='0')).
Fixes#279
This introduces a set of environment variables that can be used for
defining initial config state, to expedite the process of
destroying/relaunching instances quickly with the same settings every
time.
Closes#228Closes#195
* Add custom CSS field to config
This allows users to set/customize an instance's theme and appearance to
their liking. The config CSS field is prepopulated with all default CSS
variable values to allow quick editing.
Note that this can be somewhat of a "footgun" if someone updates the
CSS to hide all fields/search/etc. Should probably add some sort of
bandaid "admin" feature for public instances to employ until the whole
cookie/session issue is investigated further.
* Symlink all app static files to test dir
* Refactor app/misc/*.json -> app/static/settings/*.json
The country/language json files are used for user config settings, so
the "misc" name didn't really make sense. Also moved these to the static
folder to make testing easier.
* Fix light theme variables in dark theme css
* Minor style tweaking
Moves the language and country dicts from the config model to json files
that are loaded during app init and stored in the app config dict. This
substantially improves the readability of the config model and allows
for much more sensible loading of the language/country options.
Dark mode, country, interface language, and search language configs
can now be set in the search query by appending each option as a
url parameter.
Supported args are: 'dark', 'lang_search', 'lang_interface', and 'ctry'
Ex: /search?q=%s&dark=1&lang_search=lang_en...
These config settings persist across page navigation and switching
result type, but will be reset if the main search bar is used.
See #144
* Add tor and http/socks proxy support
Allows users to enable/disable tor from the config menu, which will
forward all requests through Tor.
Also adds support for setting environment variables for alternative
proxy support. Setting the following variables will forward requests
through the proxy:
- WHOOGLE_PROXY_USER (optional)
- WHOOGLE_PROXY_PASS (optional)
- WHOOGLE_PROXY_TYPE (required)
- Can be "http", "socks4", or "socks5"
- WHOOGLE_PROXY_LOC (required)
- Format: "<ip address>:<port>"
See #30
* Refactor acquire_tor_conn -> acquire_tor_identity
Also updated travis CI to set up tor
* Add check for Tor socket on init, improve Tor error handling
Initializing the app sends a heartbeat request to Tor to check for
availability, and updates the home page config options accordingly. This
heartbeat is sent on every request, to ensure Tor support can be
reconfigured without restarting the entire app.
If Tor support is enabled, and a subsequent request fails, then a new
TorError exception is raised, and the Tor feature is disabled until a
valid connection is restored.
The max attempts has been updated to 10, since 5 seemed a bit too low
for how quickly the attempts go by.
* Change send_tor_signal arg type, update function doc
send_tor_signal now accepts a stem.Signal arg (a bit cleaner tbh). Also
added the doc string for the "disable" attribute in TorError.
* Fix tor identity logic in Request.send
* Update proxy init, change proxyloc var name
Proxy is now only initialized if both type and location are specified,
as neither have a default fallback and both are required. I suppose the
type could fall back to http, but seems safer this way.
Also refactored proxyurl -> proxyloc for the runtime args in order to
match the Dockerfile args.
* Add tor/proxy support for Docker builds, fix opensearch/init
The Dockerfile is now updated to include support for Tor configuration,
with a working torrc file included in the repo.
An issue with opensearch was fixed as well, which was uncovered during
testing and was simple enough to fix here. Likewise, DDG bang gen was
updated to only ever happen if the file didn't exist previously, as
testing with the file being regenerated every time was tedious.
* Add missing "@" for socks proxy requests
Improves clarity of the meaning behind the "Country" filter -- Google
seemingly uses this value to only return results that are hosted in a
particular country, as evidenced in the search differences highlighted
in #123. It now mentions that the results are filtered by website
hosting location.
Also, now that invidio.us is shut down, the fallback URL (invidiou.site)
is now used instead.
Full implementation of social media alt redirects (twitter/youtube/instagram -> nitter/invidious/bibliogram) depending on configuration.
Verbatim search and option to ignore search autocorrect are now supported as well.
Also cleaned up the javascript side of whoogle config so that it now
uses arrays of available fields for parsing config values instead of manually assigning each
one to a variable.
This doesn't include support for Google Maps -> Open Street Maps, that
seems a bit more involved than the social media redirects were, so it
should likely be a separate effort.
Adding support to choose separately the language of search and the one for the interface (allowing a default givent by google).

* Added country and safe search config options
* Updated handling of parser error in results test
* Improved handling of default country
* Added 1px empty gif fallback as a replacement for images that fail to load
This addresses #18, which brought up the issue of searching with Whoogle
with the search instance set to always use a specific container in
Firefox Container Tabs.
Could also be useful if you want to share your search results or
something, I guess. Though nobody likes when people do that.
* Added language configuration support
Main page now has a dropdown for selecting preferred language of
results.
Refactored config to be its own model with language constants.
* Added more language support
Interface language is now updated using the "hl" arg
Fixed chinese traditional and simplified values
Updated decoding of characters to gb2312
* Updated to use conditional decoding dependent on language
* Updated filter to not rely on valid config to work properly
