From 41c03cf0112b859f9d5e93690f4ee36d7271680b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Markus Heiser Date: Sun, 7 Feb 2021 13:48:41 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] [drop] metager - xpath engine won't work anymore The new version of MetaGer needs to reload the reults (into a iframe) with a unique tag (see HTML response below). Implementing a dedicated metager-engine for searx makes no sense to me. The great days of MetaGer seems to be ended. I remember the good old days this project started in the 90's of the last century. But in the last few years it becomes more and more crap. As the name suggested, MetaGer was made for germans in the first place. They have added a english and spain translation but the i18n is very poor compared to what searx offers. It's a pity, lets drop MetaGer. This is the first response, the id (b82679980656899ba5a17ffd02a56846) is unique for each query: $ curl "https://metager.org/meta/meta.ger3?eingabe=foo&submit-query=&focus=web" foo - MetaGer Signed-off-by: Markus Heiser --- searx/settings.yml | 18 ------------------ 1 file changed, 18 deletions(-) diff --git a/searx/settings.yml b/searx/settings.yml index 4aac91702..785e7a642 100644 --- a/searx/settings.yml +++ b/searx/settings.yml @@ -717,24 +717,6 @@ engines: require_api_key: false results: HTML - - name : metager - engine : xpath - paging : False - search_url : https://metager.org/meta/meta.ger3?eingabe={query} - url_xpath : //div[@class="result-subheadline"]/a/@href - title_xpath : //div[@class="result-headline"]/h2/@title - content_xpath : //div[@class="result-description"]/text() - categories : general - shortcut : mg - disabled : True - about: - website: https://metager.org/ - wikidata_id: Q1924645 - official_api_documentation: - use_official_api: false - require_api_key: false - results: HTML - - name : microsoft academic engine : microsoft_academic categories : science
