"""Brave supports the categories listed in :py:obj:`brave_category` (General,
news, videos, images). The support of :py:obj:`paging` and :py:obj:`time range
<time_range_support>` is limited (see remarks).
Configured ``brave`` engines:
.. code:: yaml
- name: brave

brave_category: search
time_range_support: true
paging: true
- name: brave.images

.. _brave regions:
Brave regions
=============
Brave uses two-digit tags for the regions like ``ca`` while SearXNG deals with
locales. To get a mapping, all *officatl de-facto* languages of the Brave
region are mapped to regions in SearXNG (see :py:obj:`babel
<babel.languages.get_official_languages>`):
.. code:: python
"regions": {
..
"en-CA": "ca",
"fr-CA": "ca",
..
}
.. note::
The language (aka region) support of Brave's index is limited to very basic
languages. The search results for languages like Chinese or Arabic are of
low quality.
.. _brave languages:
Brave languages
===============
Brave's language support is limited to the UI (menues, area local notations,
etc). Brave's index only seems to support a locale, but it does not seem to
support any languages in its index. The choice of available languages is very
small (and its not clear to me where the differencee in UI is when switching
from en-us to en-ca or en-gb).
In the :py:obj:`EngineTraits object <searx.enginelib.traits.EngineTraits>` the
UI languages are stored in a custom field named ``ui_lang``:
.. code:: python
"custom": {
"ui_lang": {
"ca": "ca",
"de-DE": "de-de",
"en-CA": "en-ca",
"en-GB": "en-gb",
"en-US": "en-us",
"es": "es",
"fr-CA": "fr-ca",
"fr-FR": "fr-fr",
"ja-JP": "ja-jp",
"pt-BR": "pt-br",
"sq-AL": "sq-al"
}
},
