+Prime directives: Privacy, Hackability
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+Searx has 2 prime directives, privacy-by-design and hackability. The
+hackability comes in at least 3 levels:
+
+-  support for search engines
+-  plugins for altering search behaviour
+-  hacking searx itself.
+
+Happy hacking. Observe the lack of "world domination" among the
+directives, searx has no intentions for wide mass-adoption, rounded
+corners, etc. The prime directive: "privacy" - deserves a seperate
+chapter, as it's quite uncommon unfortunately, here it goes:
+
+Privacy-by-design
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+Searx is a privacy-respecting, hackable meta-search engine. It was born
+out of the need for a privacy-respecing search facility that can be
+expanded easily to maximise both its search and it's privacy protecting
+capabilities.
+
+Consequences of Privacy-by-design are that some widely used features
+work differently or not by default or at all. If some feature reduces
+the privacy perserving aspects of searx, it should by default be
+switched of, if implemented at all. There is enough search engines
+already out there providing such features. = Since privacy-preservation
+is a prime goal, if some feature does reduce the protection of searx and
+is implemented, care should be taken to educate the user about the
+consequences of choosing to enable this. Further features which
+implement widely known features in a manner that protects privacy but
+thus deviate from the users expectations should also be explained to the
+user. Also if you think that something works weird with searx, maybe
+it's because of the tool you use is designed in a way to interfere with
+privacy respect, submiting a bugreport to the vendor of the tool that
+misbehaves might be a good feedback for the vendor to reconsider his
+disrespect towards his customers (e.g. GET vs POST requests in various
+browsers).
+
+Remember the other prime directive of searx is to be hackable, so if the
+above privacy concerns do not fancy you, simply fork it.

+Installation
+============
+
+Step by step installation for Debian / Ubuntu with virtualenv.
+
+Source: https://about.okhin.fr/posts/Searx/ with some additions
+
+How to: `Setup searx in a couple of hours with a free SSL
+certificate <https://www.reddit.com/r/privacytoolsIO/comments/366kvn/how_to_setup_your_own_privacy_respecting_search/>`__
+
+Basic installation
+------------------
+
+For Ubuntu, be sure to have enable universe repository.
+
+Install packages :
+
+.. code:: sh
+
+    sudo apt-get install git build-essential libxslt-dev python-dev python-virtualenv python-pybabel zlib1g-dev libffi-dev libssl-dev
+
+Install searx :
+
+.. code:: sh
+
+    cd /usr/local
+    sudo git clone https://github.com/asciimoo/searx.git
+    sudo useradd searx -d /usr/local/searx
+    sudo chown searx:searx -R /usr/local/searx
+
+Install dependencies in a virtualenv :
+
+.. code:: sh
+
+    sudo -u searx -i
+    cd /usr/local/searx
+    virtualenv searx-ve
+    . ./searx-ve/bin/activate
+    pip install -r requirements.txt
+    python setup.py install
+
+Configuration
+-------------
+
+.. code:: sh
+
+    sed -i -e "s/ultrasecretkey/`openssl rand -hex 16`/g" searx/settings.yml
+
+Edit searx/settings.yml if necessary.
+
+Check
+-----
+
+Start searx :
+
+.. code:: sh
+
+    python searx/webapp.py
+
+Go to http://localhost:8888
+
+If everything works fine, disable the debug option in settings.yml :
+
+.. code:: sh
+
+    sed -i -e "s/debug : True/debug : False/g" searx/settings.yml
+
+At this point searx is not demonized ; uwsgi allows this.
+
+You can exit the virtualenv and the searx user bash (enter exit command
+twice).
+
+uwsgi
+-----
+
+Install packages :
+
+.. code:: sh
+
+    sudo apt-get install uwsgi uwsgi-plugin-python
+
+Create the configuration file /etc/uwsgi/apps-available/searx.ini with
+this content :
+
+::
+
+    [uwsgi]
+    # Who will run the code
+    uid = searx
+    gid = searx
+
+    # disable logging for privacy
+    disable-logging = true
+
+    # Number of workers (usually CPU count)
+    workers = 4
+
+    # The right granted on the created socket
+    chmod-socket = 666
+
+    # Plugin to use and interpretor config
+    single-interpreter = true
+    master = true
+    plugin = python
+
+    # Module to import
+    module = searx.webapp
+
+    # Virtualenv and python path
+    virtualenv = /usr/local/searx/searx-ve/
+    pythonpath = /usr/local/searx/
+    chdir = /usr/local/searx/searx/
+
+Activate the uwsgi application and restart :
+
+.. code:: sh
+
+    cd /etc/uwsgi/apps-enabled
+    ln -s ../apps-available/searx.ini
+    /etc/init.d/uwsgi restart
+
+Web server
+----------
+
+with nginx
+^^^^^^^^^^
+
+If nginx is not installed (uwsgi will not work with the package
+nginx-light) :
+
+.. code:: sh
+
+    sudo apt-get install nginx
+
+Hosted at /
+"""""""""""
+
+Create the configuration file /etc/nginx/sites-available/searx with this
+content :
+
+.. code:: nginx
+
+    server {
+        listen 80;
+        server_name searx.example.com;
+        root /usr/local/searx;
+
+        location / {
+                include uwsgi_params;
+                uwsgi_pass unix:/run/uwsgi/app/searx/socket;
+        }
+    }
+
+Restart service :
+
+.. code:: sh
+
+    sudo service nginx restart
+    sudo service uwsgi restart
+
+from subdirectory URL (/searx)
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+Add this configuration in the server config file
+/etc/nginx/sites-available/default :
+
+.. code:: nginx
+
+    location = /searx { rewrite ^ /searx/; }
+    location /searx {
+            try_files $uri @searx;
+    }
+    location @searx {
+            uwsgi_param SCRIPT_NAME /searx;
+            include uwsgi_params;
+            uwsgi_modifier1 30;
+            uwsgi_pass unix:/run/uwsgi/app/searx/socket;
+    }
+
+Enable base\_url in searx/settings.yml
+
+::
+
+    base_url : http://your.domain.tld/searx/
+
+Restart service :
+
+.. code:: sh
+
+    sudo service nginx restart
+    sudo service uwsgi restart
+
+disable logs
+~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+for better privacy you can disable nginx logs about searx.
+
+how to proceed : below ``uwsgi_pass`` in
+/etc/nginx/sites-available/default add
+
+::
+
+    access_log /dev/null;
+    error_log /dev/null;
+
+Restart service :
+
+.. code:: sh
+
+    sudo service nginx restart
+
+with apache
+-----------
+
+Add wsgi mod :
+
+.. code:: sh
+
+    sudo apt-get install libapache2-mod-uwsgi
+    sudo a2enmod uwsgi
+
+Add this configuration in the file /etc/apache2/apache2.conf :
+
+.. code:: apache
+
+    <Location />
+        Options FollowSymLinks Indexes
+        SetHandler uwsgi-handler
+        uWSGISocket /run/uwsgi/app/searx/socket
+    </Location>
+
+Note that if your instance of searx is not at the root, you should
+change ``<Location />`` by the location of your instance, like
+``<Location /searx>``.
+
+Restart Apache :
+
+.. code:: sh
+
+    sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 restart
+
+disable logs
+------------
+
+For better privacy you can disable Apache logs.
+
+WARNING : not tested
+
+WARNING : you can only disable logs for the whole (virtual) server not
+for a specific path.
+
+Go back to /etc/apache2/apache2.conf and above ``<Location />`` add :
+
+.. code:: apache
+
+    CustomLog /dev/null combined
+
+Restart Apache :
+
+.. code:: sh
+
+    sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 restart
+
+How to update
+-------------
+
+.. code:: sh
+
+    cd /usr/local/searx
+    sudo -u searx -i
+    . ./searx-ve/bin/activate
+    git stash
+    git pull origin master

+Search syntax
+=============
+
+Searx allows you to modify the default categories, engines and search
+language via the search query.
+
+Category/engine prefix: ``!``
+
+Language prefix: ``:``
+
+Prefix to add engines and categories to the currently selected
+categories: ``?``
+
+Abbrevations of the engines and languages are also accepted.
+Engine/category modifiers are chainable and inclusive (e.g. with
+`!it !ddg !wp qwer <https://searx.me/?q=%21it%20%21ddg%20%21wp%20qwer>`_
+search in IT category **and** duckduckgo **and** wikipedia for ``qwer``).
+
+See the `/preferences page <https://searx.me/preferences>`_ for the
+list of engines, categories and languages.
+
+Examples
+~~~~~~~~
+
+Search in wikipedia for ``qwer``:
+`!wp qwer <https://searx.me/?q=%21wp%20qwer>`__ or
+`!wikipedia qwer <https://searx.me/?q=%21wikipedia%20qwer>`_
