Activating minimal mode should also remove all collapsed sections, if
any are found.
WHOOGLE_MINIMAL now documented in readme and app.json (for heroku).
The levelup.gitconnected.com site is a Medium site that can also be
replaced with scribe.rip whenever privacy respecting site alternatives
are enabled in the config.
Also modified how link descriptions are updated when that config is
enabled (before it was missing replacements on quite a few
descriptions).
Previously if a result element marked for collapsing didn't have a valid
"parent" element, the collapsing was skipped altogether. This loops
through child elements until a valid parent is found (or if one isn't
found, the element will not be collapsed).
Sections such as "People also asked" and "related searches" typically
take up a lot of room on the results page, and don't always have the
most useful information. This checks for result elements with more than
7 child divs, extracts the section title, and wraps all elements in a
"details" element that can be expanded/collapsed by the user.
Note that this functionality existed previously (albeit not implemented
as well), but due to changes in how Google returns searches (switching
from using <h2> elements for section headers to <span> or <div>
elements), the approach to collapsing these sections needed to be
updated.
Since the interface language defaults to IP geolocation by google, the
default language is now set to english. Still not sure if this is the
best solution, but at least temporarily should clear up some confusion
for users with instances deployed in countries outside of their own.
Also performed some minor cleanup:
- Updated name of strip_blocked_sites to clean_query
- Added clean_query to list of jinja template functions
- Ensured site block list doesn't contain duplicate filters
Occasionally the search results will contain links with arguments such
as 'dq', which was being erroneously used in attempts to extract the 'q'
element from query strings. This enforces that only links with '?q=' or
'&q=' (elements with a standalone 'q' arg) will have the element
extracted.
I also refactored the naming of this element once extracted to be just
'q'. Although this seems counterintuitive, it makes a little more sense
since this element is the one we're extracting. It's a vague url arg
name, but it is what it is.
Bump version to 0.5.2 for hotfix release
The new site filter breaks links to Maps results, so filter.py needed
to be updated to handle these links as a unique case. A new method was
introduced to easily remove any "-site:..." filters from the query,
which is now also used to format queries in the header template rather
than manually removing the blocked site list within the template itself.
Bumps version to 0.5.1 for releasing the bugfix

This moves away from the previous (messy) approach of using two separate
keys for decrypting text and element URLs separately and regenerating
them for new searches. The current implementation of sessions is not very
reliable, which lead to keys being regenerated too soon, which would
break page navigation. Until that can be addressed, the single
key per session approach should work a lot better.
Fixes#250Fixes#90
Eventually this should be part of a separate mypy ci build, but right
now it's just a general guideline. Future commits and PRs should be
validated for static typing wherever possible.
For reference, the testing commands used for this commit were:
mypy --ignore-missing-imports --pretty --disallow-untyped-calls app/
mypy --ignore-missing-imports --pretty --disallow-untyped-calls test/
The app/utils/*_utils weren't named very well, and all have been updated
to have more accurate names.
Function and class documention for the utils have been updated as well,
as part of the effort to improve overall documentation for the project.
The lxml dependency in the project was fairly unnecessary, and made the
initial build time for the project considerably slower. This replaces
all instances of lxml with either the default html parser (for bs4
constructors) or the built in xml.etree package (for search suggestion
parsing).
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.
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
The pagination footer on the results page after page 2 has three actions
(beginning, next, previous). The footer filter was updated to remove
items with more than three actions to fix this.
See #131
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
* Use relative links instead of absolute
This allows for hosting under a subpath. For example if you want to host
whoogle at example.com/whoogle, it should work better with a reverse proxy.
* Use relative link for opensearch.xml
The header template was using Google's classes for the "Whoogle" logo,
which meant keeping up with their list of colors used in the logo. The
template was updated to only ever use the Whoogle logo color.
Accordingly, the logo specific styling in filter.py was removed, since
it is no longer needed.
Also removes all links to the shopping tab, as it seems that the
majority of the links to items are Google specific links (usually
google.com/aclk links without any discernible param for determining the
true location for the link). The shopping page should be addressed
separately with unique filtering/formatting. Further tracking of this
task will be followed in #136.
* 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.
Results page now includes method for switching to "All Languages" from
whichever language is specified as the primary in the config (see #74).
Also removes the non-Whoogle links from the page footer, leaving only
the page navigation controls
Added support for the date range filter on the results page, though I'd
still recommend using the ":past <unit>" query instead.
* 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
Basic autocomplete/search suggestion functionality added
* Adds new GET and POST routes for '/autocomplete' that accept a string query and returns an array of suggestions
* Adds new autoscript.js file for handling queries on the main page and results view
* Updated requests class to include autocomplete method
* Updated opensearch template to handle search suggestions
* Added header template to allow for autocomplete on results view
* Updated readme to mention autocomplete feature
* Putting '! ' at the beginning of the query now redirects to the first search result

for adding full res image link for each image result).
Updated README to include libcurl and libssl install instructions for
manual setup.
