The support of :py:obj:`paging` and :py:obj:`time range ` is limited (see remarks). Configured ``brave`` engines: .. code:: yaml - name: brave engine: brave ... brave_category: search time_range_support: true paging: true - name: brave.images engine: brave ... brave_category: images - name: brave.videos engine: brave ... brave_category: videos - name: brave.news engine: brave ... brave_category: news .. _brave regions: Brave regions ============= Brave uses two-digit tags for the regions like ``ca`` while SearXNG deals with locales. To get a mapping, all *officiat de-facto* languages of the Brave region are mapped to regions in SearXNG (see :py:obj:`babel `): .. code:: python "regions": { .. "en-CA": "ca", "fr-CA": "ca", .. } .. note:: The language (aka region) support of Brave's index is limited to very basic languages. The search results for languages like Chinese or Arabic are of low quality. .. _brave languages: Brave languages =============== Brave's language support is limited to the UI (menus, area local notations, etc). Brave's index only seems to support a locale, but it does not seem to support any languages in its index. The choice of available languages is very small (and its not clear to me where the difference in UI is when switching from en-us to en-ca or en-gb). In the :py:obj:`EngineTraits object ` the UI languages are stored in a custom field named ``ui_lang``: .. code:: python "custom": { "ui_lang": { "ca": "ca", "de-DE": "de-de", "en-CA": "en-ca", "en-GB": "en-gb", "en-US": "en-us", "es": "es", "fr-CA": "fr-ca", "fr-FR": "fr-fr", "ja-JP": "ja-jp", "pt-BR": "pt-br", "sq-AL": "sq-al" } }, Implementations =============== """ from typing import TYPE_CHECKING from urllib.parse import ( urlencode, urlparse, parse_qs, ) from dateutil import parser from lxml import html from searx import locales from searx.utils import ( extract_text, eval_xpath, eval_xpath_list, eval_xpath_getindex, js_variable_to_python, ) from searx.enginelib.traits import EngineTraits if TYPE_CHECKING: import logging logger: logging.Logger traits: EngineTraits about = { "website": 'https://search.brave.com/', "wikidata_id": 'Q22906900', "official_api_documentation": None, "use_official_api": False, "require_api_key": False, "results": 'HTML', } base_url = "https://search.brave.com/" categories = [] brave_category = 'search' """Brave supports common web-search, video search, image and video search. - ``search``: Common WEB search - ``videos``: search for videos - ``images``: search for images - ``news``: search for news """ brave_spellcheck = False """Brave supports some kind of spell checking.
