Alternative (Recommended) Installation
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
- clone source:
|
|
``git clone git@github.com:asciimoo/searx.git && cd searx``
|
|
- build in current folder: ``make minimal``
|
|
- run ``bin/searx-run`` to start the application
|
|
|
|
Development
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
Just run ``make``. Versions of dependencies are pinned down inside
|
|
``versions.cfg`` to produce most stable build. Also remember, NO make
|
|
command should be run as root, not even ``make production``
|
|
|
|
Deployment
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
- clone source:
|
|
``git clone git@github.com:asciimoo/searx.git && cd searx``
|
|
- build in current folder: ``make production``
|
|
- run ``bin/supervisord`` to start the application
|
|
|
|
Upgrading
|
|
~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
- inside previously cloned searx directory run: ``git stash`` to
|
|
temporarily save any changes you have made
|
|
- pull source: ``git pull origin master``
|
|
- re-build in current folder: ``make production``
|
|
- run ``bin/supervisorctl stop searx`` to stop searx, if it does not,
|
|
then run ``fuser -k 8888/tcp``
|
|
- run ``bin/supervisorctl reload`` to re-read supervisor config and
|
|
start searx
|
|
|
|
Command make
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
``make``
|
|
''''''''
|
|
|
|
Builds development environment with testing support.
|
|
|
|
``make tests``
|
|
''''''''''''''
|
|
|
|
Runs tests. You can write tests
|
|
`here <https://github.com/asciimoo/searx/tree/master/searx/tests>`__ and
|
|
remember 'untested code is broken code'.
|
|
|
|
``make robot``
|
|
''''''''''''''
|
|
|
|
Runs robot (Selenium) tests, you must have ``firefox`` installed because
|
|
this functional tests actually run the browser and perform operations on
|
|
it. Also searx is executed with
|
|
`settings\_robot <https://github.com/asciimoo/searx/blob/master/searx/settings_robot.py>`__.
|
|
|
|
``make flake8``
|
|
'''''''''''''''
|
|
|
|
'pep8 is a tool to check your Python code against some of the style
|
|
conventions in `PEP 8 <http://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0008/>`__.'
|
|
|
|
``make coverage``
|
|
'''''''''''''''''
|
|
|
|
Checks coverage of tests, after running this, execute this:
|
|
``firefox ./coverage/index.html``
|
|
|
|
``make production``
|
|
'''''''''''''''''''
|
|
|
|
Used to make co-called production environment - without tests (you
|
|
should ran tests before deploying searx on the server). This installs
|
|
supervisord, so if searx crashes, it will try to pick itself up again.
|
|
And crontab entry is added to start supervisord at server boot.
|
|
|
|
``make minimal``
|
|
''''''''''''''''
|
|
|
|
Minimal build - without test frameworks, the quickest build option.
|
|
|
|
``make clean``
|
|
''''''''''''''
|
|
|
|
Deletes several folders and files (see ``Makefile`` for more), so that
|
|
next time you run any other ``make`` command it will rebuild everithing.
