To simplify installation and maintenance of a searx instance you can use the script utils/searx.sh.

Install

In most cases you will install searx simply by running the command:

sudo -H ./utils/searx.sh install all

The script adds a ${SERVICE_USER} (default:searx) and installs searx into this user account. The installation is described in chapter installation basic.

Intranet Reverse Proxy

To install searx in your intranet HTTP server use:

sudo -H ./utils/searx.sh apache install

Warning

This setup is not suitable for public instances, go on with reverse proxy!
