uwsgi

Create the configuration file /etc/uwsgi/apps-available/searx.ini with this content:

[uwsgi]

# uWSGI core
# ----------
#
# https://uwsgi-docs.readthedocs.io/en/latest/Options.html#uwsgi-core

# Who will run the code
uid = searx
gid = searx

# chdir to specified directory before apps loading
chdir = /usr/local/searx/searx-src/searx

# disable logging for privacy
disable-logging = true

# The right granted on the created socket
chmod-socket = 666

# Plugin to use and interpretor config
single-interpreter = true

# enable master process
master = true

# load apps in each worker instead of the master
lazy-apps = true

# load uWSGI plugins
plugin = python3,http

# By default the Python plugin does not initialize the GIL.  This means your
# app-generated threads will not run.  If you need threads, remember to enable
# them with enable-threads.  Running uWSGI in multithreading mode (with the
# threads options) will automatically enable threading support. This *strange*
# default behaviour is for performance reasons.
enable-threads = true

# plugin: python
# --------------

# https://uwsgi-docs.readthedocs.io/en/latest/Options.html#plugin-python

# load a WSGI module
module = searx.webapp

# set PYTHONHOME/virtualenv
virtualenv = /usr/local/searx/searx-pyenv

# add directory (or glob) to pythonpath
pythonpath = /usr/local/searx/searx-src


# plugin http

# https://uwsgi-docs.readthedocs.io/en/latest/Options.html#plugin-http

# Native HTTP support: https://uwsgi-docs.readthedocs.io/en/latest/HTTP.html
http = 127.0.0.1:8888

Activate the uwsgi application and restart:
