* Improving readability, removing unnecessary elements, etc.
* Minor changes to comment style and favicon response code

- WHOOGLE_SHOW_FAVICONS: Default on, can be set to 0 to hide favicons
and skip the request for fetching them
- WHOOGLE_UPDATE_CHECK: Default on, can be set to 0 to disable the
daily check for new versions released on github
Closes#1098Closes#1059
This should fix the annoyance with browsers like Firefox not caching
POST request responses. By redirecting a POST search to be a GET request
instead (with an encrypted query string), the page can be cached and
successfully navigated back to after visiting a result.
DDG provides favicons using the url format
icons.duckduckgo.com/ip2/{site}.ico
This can be used to fetch favicons in the event that the default
"/favicon.ico" path does not work.
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.
Redirects to alternative frontends can now be defined using the
WHOOGLE_REDIRECTS environment variable. Usage is documented in the
readme, but is basically defined as <parent>:<new>.
Closes#988
The url prefix was not included when reconstructing the root url using
X-Forwarded-* headers, causing some elements to fail to load properly.
Fixes#937
Session validation includes a method for determining the proxy host url,
but previously did not include the path for the initial request. This
caused a situation where users with a new session would not be able to
complete their first search, since the session validation follow-through
url did not include the actual path for their search query.
The method now includes a flag for only extracting the root url, which
is needed for creating full urls in the content filter.
Fixes#708
If Whoogle is accessed on a non-standard port _and_ proxied,
this port is lost to the application and `element['src']`s are
incorrectly formed (omitting port).
HTTP x-Forwarded-Host will contain this front port number in
a typical Nginx reverse proxy configuration.
* 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
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
Flask's `request.url` uses `http` as the protocol, which breaks
instances that enforce `https`, since the session redirect relies on
`request.url` for the follow-through URL.
This introduces a new method for determining the correct URL to use for
these redirects by automatically replacing the protocol with `https` if
the `HTTPS_ONLY` env var is set for that instance.
Fixes#538Fixes#545
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.
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.
* Major refactor of requests and session management
- Switches from pycurl to requests library
- Allows for less janky decoding, especially with non-latin character
sets
- Adds session level management of user configs
- Allows for each session to set its own config (people are probably
going to complain about this, though not sure if it'll be the same
number of people who are upset that their friends/family have to share
their config)
- Updates key gen/regen to more aggressively swap out keys after each
request
* Added ability to save/load configs by name
- New PUT method for config allows changing config with specified name
- New methods in js controller to handle loading/saving of configs
* Result formatting and removal of unused elements
- Fixed question section formatting from results page (added appropriate
padding and made questions styled as italic)
- Removed user agent display from main config settings
* Minor change to button label
* Fixed issue with "de-pickling" of flask session
Having a gitignore-everything ("*") file within a flask session folder seems to cause a
weird bug where the state of the app becomes unusable from continuously
trying to prune files listed in the gitignore (and it can't prune '*').
* Switched to pickling saved configs
* Updated ad/sponsored content filter and conf naming
Configs are now named with a .conf extension to allow for easier manual
cleanup/modification of named config files
Sponsored content now removed by basic string matching of span content
* Version bump to 0.2.0
* Fixed request.send return style
