Audio controls are now always shown by default (mostly found in searches
that contain word pronunciation guides).
Site icons were moved to the left side of the results.
This appends an icon element to each search result, using the result
domain's "/favicon.ico" path.
Note that some sites do not have a standard /favicon.ico, but have a
unique path to a specifically sized favicon instead. Worse still, some
sites use javascript to load their favicon, which would make it even
more difficult for Whoogle to figure out.
For now this approach is fine, but can be expanded upon in the future
if desired.
The change made to whoogle-contrast-text in #873 wasn't the right
decision, since whoogle-contrast-text is meant to contrast with darker
UI elements. whoogle-text already contrasts with the default white
background.
Adds a new advanced search icon alongside the result tabs for switching
to a different country from the result page.
This will obviously get populated with other methods of filtering
results, but for now it's just the country selector.
This adds a new "temporary" config section of the results view, where a
user can now change the country that their results come from without
changing their default config settings.
Closes#322
Google updated their styling of the result page, which broke some
components of Whoogle's result page styling (namely the result div
backgrounds for dark mode).
The GClasses class has been updated to keep track of what class names
have been updated to, and roll them back to a value that works for
Whoogle. A function was added that loops through new class names and
replaces them with their older counterparts.
* Expand `/window` endpoint to behave like a proxy
The `/window` endpoint was previously used as a type of proxy, but only
for removing Javascript from the result page. This expands the existing
functionality to allow users to proxy search result pages (with or without
Javascript) through their Whoogle instance.
* Implement filtering of remote content from css
* Condense NoJS feature into Anonymous View
Enabling NoJS now removes Javascript from the Anonymous View, rather
than creating a separate option.
* Exclude 'data:' urls from filter, add translations
The 'data:' url must be allowed in results to view certain elements on
the page, such as stars for review based results.
Add translations for the remaining languages.
* Add cssutils to requirements
The time filter (past day/hour/month/etc) was using the result element
background color instead of the page background color, which wasn't
providing enough contrast with the default text color.
Introduces a header for switching between result types (i.e. "All", "News",
etc) that is consistent between the different result types. Previously, image
results had a tab header that was formatted in a drastically different manner,
which was jarring when switching from a different result page to the Images
page.
Created a G class enum to reference class names returned in search
results. As noted in the class doc, this should only be used/updated as
a last resort, as class names change frequently. For some instances,
such as replacing the tbm tab, it's a lot easier to just replace by
header name than attempting to replace it based on how the element is
structured.
Also updated a few styles to revert the latest styling changes being
applied by Google.

min-width was previously set to 736px for all screen sizes, which forced
content off screen for smaller devices such as mobile phones. This
modifies the search stylesheet to only apply a min-width style to
devices > 800px wide.
There have been some recent formatting changes made by Google for search
results that do not look good (especially for dark themes). This
mostly overrides those styles to resemble the original Whoogle
result formatting.
* Integrate Farside into Whoogle
When instances are ratelimited (when a captcha is returned instead of
the user's search results) the user can now hop to a new instance via
Farside, a new backend service that redirects users to working instances
of a particular frontend. In this case, it presents a user with a
Farside link to a new Whoogle (or Searx) instance instead, so that the
user can resume their search.
For the generated Farside->Whoogle link, the generated link includes the
user's current Whoogle configuration settings as URL params, to ensure a
more seamless transition between instances. This doesn't translate to
the Farside->Searx link, but potentially could with some changes.
* Expand conversion of config<->url params
Config settings can now be translated to and from URL params using a
predetermined set of "safe" keys (i.e. config settings that easily
translate to URL params).
* Allow jumping instances via Farside when ratelimited

the user's search results) the user can now hop to a new instance via
Farside, a new backend service that redirects users to working instances
of a particular frontend. In this case, it presents a user with a
Farside link to a new Whoogle (or Searx) instance instead, so that the

Closes#554Closes#559
This implements a method for converting between various currencies. When a user
searches "<currency A> to <currency B>" (including when prefixed by a specific
amount), they are now presented with a table for quickly converting between the
two. This makes use of the currency ratio returned as the first "card" in
currency related searches, and the table is inserted into this same card.
Previously the load/save/apply buttons in the config menu were hidden
below all available config options and required the user to scroll to
the bottom to save changes. This made for bad ux, since for new users,
it isn't immediately apparent that selecting a new dropdown value, for
instance, doesn't instantly save the new setting. The new layout should
make it more clear that hitting "Apply" is required to save config
changes.
This checks the latest released version of Whoogle against
the current app version, and shows an "update available"
message if the current version num < latest release num.
Closes#305
The config menu has gotten out of control recently, but rather than
reducing functionality, I'm just going to set a max height for the div
and allow scrolling within the menu.
Ultimately though this indicates that the app is getting a bit too
complicated (imo). Striking a balance between customization and
minimalism is less of a priority for me nowadays though, hence why I'm
willing to let it slide for now. At some point, maybe when there are
more contributors, it could be nice to refactor this in some way so that
it isn't overwhelming to new users who are looking to customize their
instance (that's just me speculating btw, I haven't actually heard from
anyone who thinks there are too many options in that menu).
I've gotten a bit bored of the current light/dark themes, so I'm
switching the default theme over to the Doppelganger theme, which is a
better template/jumping off point for users to use when creating custom
themes since it also provides examples for coloring each of the Whoogle
logo letters.
This introduces a new UI element for displaying the client IP
address when a search for "my ip" is used.
Note that this does not show the IP address seen by Google
if Whoogle is deployed remotely. It uses `request.remote_addr`
to display the client IP address in the UI, not the actual address
of the server (which is what Google sees in requests sent from
remote Whoogle instances).
On app init, short hashes are generated from file checksums to use for
cache busting. These hashes are added into the full file name and used
to symlink to the actual file contents. These symlinks are loaded in the
jinja templates for each page, and can tell the browser to load a new
file if the hash changes.
This is only in place for css and js files, but can be extended in the
future for other file types if needed.
Introduces a new config element and environment variable
(WHOOGLE_CONFIG_THEME) for setting the theme of the app. Rather than
just having either light or dark, this allows a user to have their
instance use their current system light/dark preference to determine the
theme to use.
As a result, the dark mode setting (and WHOOGLE_CONFIG_DARK) have been
deprecated, but will still work as expected until a system theme has
been chosen.
* Add support for Lingva translations in results
Searches that contain the word "translate" and are normal search queries
(i.e. not news/images/video/etc) now create an iframe to a Lingva url to
translate the user's search using their configured search language.
The Lingva url can be configured using the WHOOGLE_ALT_TL env var, or
will fall back to the official Lingva instance url (lingva.ml).
For more info, visit https://github.com/TheDavidDelta/lingva-translate
* Add basic test for lingva results
* Allow user specified lingva instances through csp frame-src
* Fix pep8 issue
Enforces 0 margin for the search input form on the result page, which
removes the weird gap that is seen by default.
Also made minor changes to the border styling. Desktop searches now have
a single bottom border in dark mode rather than an all around border,
and the border around the mobile search result input was removed
entirely.
This was unfortunately a bit more complex than just adding an HTML reset
button, since reset buttons only "reset" input content to its original
value rather than clearing it. This doesn't work for Whoogle's needs,
since inputs on search result pages are auto populated with the search
content as their default value.
A reset button was introduced anyways, but is controlled by a few lines
of javascript to allow completely clearing the search input. The button
will only appear on mobile searches.
At the moment, it isn't particularly pretty, but is functional. It uses
just a plain "x" character and is always visible on mobile search result
pages. This leaves plenty of room for improvement moving forward.
Fixes#291
Both light and dark themes have been updated to remove the leftover
hardcoded values (mostly related to the search suggestion styling).
See discussion in #247.
* 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
Introduces a new javascript "utils" file, which includes a check for
matching the query against a set of tracking number regexes on page
load. If a match is found, the script prepends a link to the
(presumably) appropriate tracking page.
Referenced in #98
This adds a step in the filter process to wrap the "people also ask"
section in a <details> element, which automatically collapses the
contents of the section. Clicking/tapping the details element expands
the view as normal.
See #113
* Implemented new dark theme
Now uses a dedicated css file for all dark theme color changes, rather
than replacing color codes directly.
Color theme is from discussion in #60.
* Minor link color update
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.
