<p>The following <a class="reference external" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NoSQL">NoSQL databases</a> are supported:</p>
<ul class="simple">
<li><p><a class="reference internal" href="#engine-redis-server"><span class="std std-ref">Redis Server</span></a></p></li>
<li><p><a class="reference internal" href="#engine-mongodb"><span class="std std-ref">MongoDB</span></a></p></li>
</ul>
<p>All of the engines above are just commented out in the <a class="extlink-origin reference external" href="https://github.com/searxng/searxng/blob/master/searx/settings.yml">settings.yml</a>, as you have to set various options and install
dependencies before using them.</p>
<p>By default, the engines use the <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">key-value</span></code> template for displaying results /
see <a class="extlink-origin reference external" href="https://github.com/searxng/searxng/blob/master/searx/templates/simple/result_templates/key-value.html">simple</a>
theme. If you are not satisfied with the original result layout, you can use
your own template, set <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">result_template</span></code> attribute to <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">{template_name}</span></code> and
place the templates at:</p>
<div class="highlight-default notranslate"><div class="highlight"><pre><span></span><span class="n">searx</span><span class="o">/</span><span class="n">templates</span><span class="o">/</span><span class="p">{</span><span class="n">theme_name</span><span class="p">}</span><span class="o">/</span><span class="n">result_templates</span><span class="o">/</span><span class="p">{</span><span class="n">template_name</span><span class="p">}</span>
</pre></div>
</div>
<p>Furthermore, if you do not wish to expose these engines on a public instance, you
can still add them and limit the access by setting <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">tokens</span></code> as described in
section <a class="reference internal" href="../../../admin/settings/settings_engine.html#private-engines"><span class="std std-ref">Private Engines (tokens)</span></a>.</p>
