|
-One of the biggest advantages of searx is being extremely customizable. But at
|
|
|
|
-first it can be daunting to newcomers. A barrier of taking advantage of this
|
|
|
|
-feature is our ugly settings file which is sometimes hard to understand and
|
|
|
|
-edit.
|
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
|
-To make self-hosting searx more accessible a new tool is introduced, called
|
|
|
|
-``searx-admin``. It is a web application which is capable of managing your
|
|
|
|
-instance and manipulating its settings via a web UI. It aims to replace editing
|
|
|
|
-of ``settings.yml`` for less experienced administrators or people who prefer
|
|
|
|
-graphical admin interfaces.

|
-Since ``searx-admin`` acts as a supervisor for searx, we have decided to
|
|
|
|
-implement it as a standalone tool instead of part of searx. Another reason for
|
|
|
|
-making it a standalone tool is that the codebase and dependencies of searx
|
|
|
|
-should not grow because of a fully optional feature, which does not affect
|
|
|
|
-existing instances.
