![]() One reason for the often seen CAPTCHA of the startpage requests are the
incomplete requests SearXNG sends to startpage.com. To avoid CAPTCHA we need to
send a well formed HTTP POST request with a cookie, we need to form a request
that is identical to the request build by startpage.com itself:
- in the cookie the **region** is selected
- in the POST arguments the **language** is selected
Based on the *engine_properties* boilerplate, SearXNG's startpage engine now
implements a `_fetch_engine_properties()` function to fetch regions & languages
from startpage.com.
This patch is a complete new implementation of the request() function, reversed
engineered from the startpage.com page. The new implementation adds
- time-range support
- save-search support
to the startpage engine which has been missed in the past.
The locale code 'no_NO' from startpage does not exists and is mapped to nb-NO.
For reference see languages-subtag at iana [1], `no` is the macrolanguage::
type: language
Subtag: nb
Description: Norwegian Bokmål
Added: 2005-10-16
Suppress-Script: Latn
Macrolanguage: no
Additional hints:
- To fetch languages from startpage, this patch makes use of the
EngineProperties implemented in 7bf0d46c
- Te get Startpage's locale & language, the function get_engine_locale from
