## License

This MCP server is licensed under the MIT License. See the LICENSE file for details.

## Prerequisites

You need a local SearXNG instance running. To set it up:

# Run SearXNG with Docker

## Quick Start

```bash
# Create config directory
mkdir -p searxng

# Create config file
tee searxng/settings.yml << EOF
use_default_settings: true

server:
  bind_address: "0.0.0.0"
  secret_key: "CHANGE_THIS_TO_SOMETHING_SECURE"  # Generate a random key
  port: 8080

search:
  safe_search: 0
  formats:
    - html
    - json

engines:
  - name: google
    engine: google
    shortcut: g

- name: duckduckgo
    engine: duckduckgo
    shortcut: d

- name: bing
    engine: bing
    shortcut: b

server.limiter: false
EOF

# Start container
docker run -d \
  --name searxng \
  -p 8080:8080 \
  -v "$(pwd)/searxng:/etc/searxng" \
  searxng/searxng
```

## Test Search Function

```bash
# Test JSON API with curl
curl -v 'http://localhost:8080/search?q=test&format=json'

# Or visit in browser
http://localhost:8080/search?q=test
```

## Container Management

```bash
# Stop container
docker stop searxng

# Remove container
docker rm searxng

# View container logs
docker logs searxng

# Enable auto-start on boot
docker update --restart always searxng
```

The `--restart always` flag ensures that:
- Container starts automatically when Docker daemon starts
- Container restarts automatically if it crashes
- Container restarts automatically if it is stopped unless explicitly stopped by user

## Custom Configuration

Edit `searxng/settings.yml` to:
- Modify search engine list
- Adjust security settings
- Configure UI language
- Change API limits

For detailed configuration options, see [SearXNG Documentation](https://docs.searxng.org/)

## Environment Variables

- `SEARXNG_INSTANCES`: Comma-separated list of SearXNG instances URLs
  Default: `http://localhost:8080`

- `SEARXNG_USER_AGENT`: Custom User-Agent header for requests
  Default: `MCP-SearXNG/1.0`

- `NODE_TLS_REJECT_UNAUTHORIZED`: Set to '0' to bypass SSL certificate verification (for development with self-signed certificates)
  Default: undefined (SSL verification enabled)

Example configuration with all options:
```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "searxng": {
      "name": "searxng",
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@kevinwatt/mcp-server-searxng"
      ],
      "env": {
        "SEARXNG_INSTANCES": "http://localhost:8080,https://searx.example.com",
        "SEARXNG_USER_AGENT": "CustomBot/1.0",
        "NODE_TLS_REJECT_UNAUTHORIZED": "0"
      }
    }
  }
}
```

> ⚠️ Warning: Disabling SSL certificate verification is not recommended in production environments.
