							|  | Development Quickstart
 | 
						
						
						
							|  | ======================
 | 
						
						
						
							|  | 
 | 
						
						
						
							|  | .. sidebar:: :ref:`makefile`
 | 
						
						
						
							|  | 
 | 
						
						
						
							|  |    For additional developer purpose there are :ref:`makefile`.
 | 
						
						
						
							|  | 
 | 
						
						
						
							|  | This quickstart guide gets your environment set up with searx.  Furthermore, it
 | 
						
						
						
							|  | gives a short introduction to the ``manage.sh`` script.
 | 
						
						
						
							|  | 
 | 
						
						
						
							|  | How to setup your development environment
 | 
						
						
						
							|  | =========================================
 | 
						
						
						
							|  | 
 | 
						
						
						
							|  | .. sidebar:: :ref:`make pyenv <make pyenv>`
 | 
						
						
						
							|  | 
 | 
						
						
						
							|  |    Alternatively use the :ref:`make pyenv`.
 | 
						
						
						
							|  | 
 | 
						
						
						
							|  | First, clone the source code of searx to the desired folder.  In this case the
 | 
						
						
						
							|  | source is cloned to ``~/myprojects/searx``.  Then create and activate the
 | 
						
						
						
							|  | searx-ve virtualenv and install the required packages using ``manage.sh``.
 | 
						
						
						
							|  | 
 | 
						
						
						
							|  | .. code:: sh
 | 
						
						
						
							|  | 
 | 
						
						
						
							|  |     cd ~/myprojects
 | 
						
						
						
							|  |     git clone https://github.com/asciimoo/searx.git
 | 
						
						
						
							|  |     cd searx
 | 
						
						
						
							|  |     python3 -m venv searx-ve
 | 
						
						
						
							|  |     . ./searx-ve/bin/activate
 | 
						
						
						
							|  |     ./manage.sh update_dev_packages
 | 
						
						
						
							|  |

							|  | How to run tests
 | 
						
						
						
							|  | ================
 | 
						
						
						
							|  | 
 | 
						
						
						
							|  | .. sidebar:: :ref:`make test.unit <make test>`
 | 
						
						
						
							|  | 
 | 
						
						
						
							|  |    Alternatively use the ``test.pep8``, ``test.unit``, ``test.robot`` targets.
 | 
						
						
						
							|  | 
 | 
						
						
						
							|  | Tests can be run using the ``manage.sh`` script.  Following tests and checks are
 | 
						
						
						
							|  | available:
 | 
						
						
						
							|  | 
 | 
						
						
						
							|  | - Unit tests
 | 
						
						
						
							|  | - Selenium tests
 | 
						
						
						
							|  | - PEP8 validation
 | 
						
						
						
							|  | - Unit test coverage check
 | 
						
						
						
							|  | 
 | 
						
						
						
							|  | For example unit tests are run with the command below:
 | 
						
						
						
							|  | 
 | 
						
						
						
							|  | .. code:: sh
 | 
						
						
						
							|  | 
 | 
						
						
						
							|  |    ./manage.sh unit_tests
 | 
						
						
						
							|  | 
 | 
						
						
						
							|  | For further test options, please consult the help of the ``manage.sh`` script or
 | 
						
						
						
							|  | read :ref:`make test`.

 | 
						
						
						
							|  | ====================================
 | 
						
						
						
							|  | 
 | 
						
						
						
							|  | .. _less: http://lesscss.org/
 | 
						
						
						
							|  | .. _NodeJS: https://nodejs.org
 | 
						
						
						
							|  | 
 | 
						
						
						
							|  | How to build styles
 | 
						
						
						
							|  | -------------------
 | 
						
						
						
							|  | 
 | 
						
						
						
							|  | Less_ is required to build the styles of searx.  Less_ can be installed using
 | 
						
						
						
							|  | either NodeJS_ or Apt.
 | 
						
						
						
							|  | 
 | 
						
						
						
							|  | .. code:: sh
 | 
						
						
						
							|  | 
 | 
						
						
						
							|  |    sudo -H apt-get install nodejs
 | 
						
						
						
							|  |    sudo -H npm install -g less
 | 
						
						
						
							|  | 
 | 
						
						
						
							|  | OR
 | 
						
						
						
							|  | 
 | 
						
						
						
							|  | .. code:: sh
 | 
						
						
						
							|  | 
 | 
						
						
						
							|  |    sudo -H apt-get install node-less
 | 
						
						
						
							|  | 
 | 
						
						
						
							|  | After satisfying the requirements styles can be build using ``manage.sh``
 | 
						
						
						
							|  | 
 | 
						
						
						
							|  | .. code:: sh
 | 
						
						
						
							|  | 
 | 
						
						
						
							|  |    ./manage.sh styles

							|  | How to build the source of the oscar theme
 | 
						
						
						
							|  | ==========================================
 | 
						
						
						
							|  | 
 | 
						
						
						
							|  | .. _grunt: https://gruntjs.com/
 | 
						
						
						
							|  | 
 | 
						
						
						
							|  | Grunt_ must be installed in order to build the javascript sources. It depends on
 | 
						
						
						
							|  | NodeJS, so first Node has to be installed.
 | 
						
						
						
							|  | 
 | 
						
						
						
							|  | .. code:: sh
 | 
						
						
						
							|  | 
 | 
						
						
						
							|  |    sudo -H apt-get install nodejs
 | 
						
						
						
							|  |    sudo -H npm install -g grunt-cli
 | 
						
						
						
							|  | 
 | 
						
						
						
							|  | After installing grunt, the files can be built using the following command:
 | 
						
						
						
							|  | 
 | 
						
						
						
							|  | .. code:: sh
 | 
						
						
						
							|  | 
 | 
						
						
						
							|  |    ./manage.sh grunt_build

							|  | Tips for debugging/development
 | 
						
						
						
							|  | ==============================
 | 
						
						
						
							|  | 
 | 
						
						
						
							|  | .. sidebar:: :ref:`make run`
 | 
						
						
						
							|  | 
 | 
						
						
						
							|  |    Makefile target ``run`` already enables debug option for your developer
 | 
						
						
						
							|  |    session / see :ref:`make run`.
 | 
						
						
						
							|  | 
 | 
						
						
						
							|  | Turn on debug logging
 | 
						
						
						
							|  |   Whether you are working on a new engine or trying to eliminate a bug, it is
 | 
						
						
						
							|  |   always a good idea to turn on debug logging.  When debug logging is enabled a
 | 
						
						
						
							|  |   stack trace appears, instead of the cryptic ``Internal Server Error``
 | 
						
						
						
							|  |   message. It can be turned on by setting ``debug: False`` to ``debug: True`` in
 | 
						
						
						
							|  |   :origin:`settings.yml <searx/settings.yml>`.
 | 
						
						
						
							|  | 
 | 
						
						
						
							|  | .. sidebar:: :ref:`make test`
 | 
						
						
						
							|  | 
 | 
						
						
						
							|  |    Alternatively use the :ref:`make test` targets.
 | 
						
						
						
							|  | 
 | 
						
						
						
							|  | Run ``./manage.sh tests`` before creating a PR.
 | 
						
						
						
							|  |   Failing build on Travis is common because of PEP8 checks.  So a new commit
 | 
						
						
						
							|  |   must be created containing these format fixes.  This phase can be skipped if
 | 
						
						
						
							|  |   ``./manage.sh tests`` is run locally before creating a PR.
