<p>
SearXNG is a free internet metasearch engine which aggregates results from more than 70 search services.
This guide sets up a working instance that can be accessed using a domain over HTTPS.
Features include:
</p>
<ul>
<li>Self hosted</li>
<li>No user tracking</li>
<li>No user profiling</li>
<li>About 70 supported search engines</li>
<li>Easy integration with any search engine</li>
<li>Cookies are not used by default</li>
<li>Secure, encrypted connections (HTTPS/SSL)</li>
</ul>
<h2>Installation</h2>
<p>Install the required packages.</p>
<pre><code>apt install git nginx -y</code></pre>
<p>Open http and https ports.</p>
<pre><code>iptables -I INPUT 6 -m state --state NEW -p tcp --dport 80 -j ACCEPT
iptables -I INPUT 6 -m state --state NEW -p tcp --dport 443 -j ACCEPT
netfilter-persistent save
ufw allow 80
ufw allow 443</code></pre>
<p>Clone the SearXNG Repository.</p>
<pre><code>git clone https://github.com/searxng/searxng searxng
cd searxng</code></pre>
<p>Installing SearXNG, Filtron and Morty.</p>
<pre><code>./utils/searx.sh install all
./utils/filtron.sh install all
./utils/morty.sh install all</code></pre>
<p>Check that both filtron and morty are running.</p>
<pre><code>systemctl status filtron
systemctl status morty</code></pre>
<h2>Configure Nginx</h2>
<p>Delete the default site.</p>
<pre><code>rm /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/default</code></pre>
<p>Create a new file <code>/etc/nginx/sites-available/searxng.conf</code> and add the following:</p>
<pre><code>
server {
# Listens on http
listen 80;
listen [::]:80;
# Your server name
server_name searx.example.org;
# If you want to log user activity, comment these
access_log /dev/null;
error_log /dev/null;
# Searx reverse proxy
location / {
proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:4004/;
proxy_set_header Host $host;
proxy_set_header Connection $http_connection;
proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
proxy_set_header X-Scheme $scheme;
proxy_set_header X-Script-Name /searx;
}
location /searx/static {
alias /usr/local/searx/searx-src/searx/static;
}
# Morty reverse proxy
location /morty {
proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:3000/;
proxy_set_header Host $host;
proxy_set_header Connection $http_connection;
proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
proxy_set_header X-Scheme $scheme;
}
}
</code></pre>
<p>Now create a symbolic link to enable this site.</p>
<pre><code>ln -s /etc/nginx/sites-available/searxng.conf /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/searxng.conf</code></pre>
<p>Restart Nginx and SearXNG.</p>
<pre><code>systemctl restart nginx
service uwsgi restart searx</code></pre>
<h2>Configure HTTPS with Certbot</h2>
<p>Install certbot.</p>
<pre><code>apt install python3-certbot-nginx</code></pre>
<p>Install a Let's Encrypt SSL certificate to Nginx and optionally let it configure HTTPS for you.
<a href="certbot.html">Detailed instructions and additional information</a>.</p>
<pre><code>certbot --nginx</code></pre>
<p>SearXNG should now be available from your domain.</p>
<h2>Configuration</h2>
<p>You can change settings by editing <code>/etc/searxng/settings.yml</code>.</p>
