The `/url` endpoint was previously used as a way of mirroring the
`/url?q=<result domain>` formatting of locations in search results from
Google. Rather than have this unnecessary intermediary step, the result
path was extracted and used as the immediate path for each result item
instead.
This endpoint hasn't been in use for many versions and has been in need
of removal for quite some time.
If a trailing slash is defined here, it causes the Whoogle instance to
redirect these element requests back to the home page, causing unwanted
behavior.
Previously, empty bang searches would redirect to the Whoogle instance
home page. This now redirects to the specific site for the bang search
instead (i.e. "!yt" without a query redirects to "youtube.com", "!gh" to
"github.com", etc)
Fixes#719
The "anon-view" translation key is the correct one to use for accessing
anonymous view within the search results. "config-anon-view" is only for
the configuration menu on the home page.
* Relativization of search results
* Fix JavaScript error when opening images
* Replace single-letter logo and remove sign-in link
* Add `WHOOGLE_URL_PREFIX` env var to support relative path redirection
The `WHOOGLE_URL_PREFIX` var can now be set to fix internal app
redirects, such as the `/session` redirect performed on the first visit
to the Whoogle home page.

In some rare instances (a race condition perhaps?) a
`cryptography.fernet.InvalidToken` exception is thrown resulting in
a broken connection.
This change gracefully returns a 401 error instead.
* 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
If the alt for a particular service is blank, the original source is
used instead.
Example:
1. Site alts enabled in config
2. User wants wikipedia links, not wikiless
3. WHOOGLE_ALT_WIKI set to ""
4. All available alt links redirected to farside, except wikipedia
Fixes#704
Old iOS 12 devices will pass the Referer HTTP header to the site user clicks.
Websites will know those traffic come from Whoogle search.
Adding "nofollow noopener noreferrer" solves the issue.
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.
Wikipedia, imgur, and translate alternatives were all still using
hardcoded URLs when replaced with their respective alternative frontend.
This updates them to use farside instead.
Links that were directed at G domains were previously removed
universally, when really they only needed to be removed from the footer
to reduce possible confusion caused by mixed Whoogle and G links.
Fixes#656
Bang searches without an actual query (i.e. just searching "!gh") will
now redirect to the home page. I guess people do this for some reason
and don't like that it redirects to the correct bang result URL, but
without an actual search term.
Fixes#595
Recent changes to ads in search results caused Whoogle to display ads
for certain searches. In particular, ads recently started appearing
grouped into one div, as opposed to a singular ad per div. This was
accompanied by the div label "ads" (instead of just "ad"), which threw
off the existing ad filter. The ad keyword blacklist has been updated
accordingly, and has been enhanced to only check against alpha chars for
each label.
This only seems to have affected English language searches, and only for
very specific searches.
Currency amounts returned by google seem to randomly include unicode
chars ('\xa0' noted in #642) which broke the currency calculator
included in the project. This ensures that only strings that can be
converted to float are ever used in the conversion.
Fixes#642
Rather than only checking for an available update on app init, the check
for updates now performs the check once every 24 hours on the first
request sent after that period.
This also now catches the requests.exceptions.ConnectionError that is
thrown if the app is initialized without an active internet connection.
Fixes#649
Removes dependency on class names for creating the "my ip" info card in
the results list for searches pertaining to the user's public IP.
Adds test to prevent this from happening again.
Note to anyone reading this and looking to contribute: please avoid
using hardcoded class names at all costs. This approach of
creating/removing content just results in issues if/when Google decides
to introduce/remove class names from the result page.
Fixes#657
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.

Google's latest formatting changes broke the modifications made when enabling
`WHOOGLE_MINIMAL`. This updates the result filtering to work with the new
changes.
Fixes#634
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.
Initializing the DDG bangs when running whoogle for the first time
creates an indeterminate amount of delay before the app becomes usable,
which makes usability tests (particularly w/ Docker) unreliable. This
moves the bang json init to a background thread and writes a temporary
empty dict to the bangs json file until the full bangs json can be used.
As reported in #593, the XML response body returned for search
suggestions can apparently contain invalid XML elements. This catches
the error and returns an empty suggestion list instead of erroring.
Fixes#593
