 | |
| =============
 | |
| 
 | |
| How to update depends on the :ref:`installation` method.  If you have used the
 | |
| :ref:`installation scripts`, use the ``update`` command from the :ref:`searxng.sh`
 | |
| script.
 | |
| 
 | |
| .. code:: sh
 | |
| 
 | |
|     sudo -H ./utils/searxng.sh instance update

| ======================
 | |
| 
 | |
| How to debug depends on the :ref:`installation` method.  If you have used the
 | |
| :ref:`installation scripts`, use the ``inspect`` command from the :ref:`searxng.sh`
 | |
| script.

 | |
| 
 | |
| SearXNG is a *rolling release*; each commit to the master branch is a release.
 | |
| SearXNG is growing rapidly, the services and opportunities are change every now
 | |
| and then, to name just a few:
 | |
| 
 | |
| - Bot protection has been switched from filtron to SearXNG's :ref:`limiter
 | |
|   <limiter>`, this requires a :ref:`Redis <settings redis>` database.
 | |
| 
 | |
| - The image proxy morty is no longer needed, it has been replaced by the
 | |
|   :ref:`image proxy <image_proxy>` from SearXNG.
 | |
| 
 | |
| - To save bandwidth :ref:`cache busting <static_use_hash>` has been implemented.
 | |
|   To get in use, the ``static-expires`` needs to be set in the :ref:`uwsgi
 | |
|   setup`.
 | |
| 
 | |
| To stay tuned and get in use of the new features, instance maintainers have to
 | |
| update the SearXNG code regularly (see :ref:`update searxng`).  As the above
 | |
| examples show, this is not always enough, sometimes services have to be set up
 | |
| or reconfigured and sometimes services that are no longer needed should be
 | |
| uninstalled.
 | |
| 
 | |
| .. hint::
 | |
| 
 | |
|    First of all: SearXNG is installed by the script :ref:`searxng.sh`.  If you
 | |
|    have old filtron, morty or searx setup you should consider complete
 | |
|    uninstall/reinstall.
 | |
| 
 | |
| Here you will find a list of changes that affect the infrastructure.  Please
 | |
| check to what extent it is necessary to update your installations:
 | |
| 
 | |
| :pull:`1595`: ``[fix] uWSGI: increase buffer-size``
 | |
|   Re-install uWSGI (:ref:`searxng.sh`) or fix your uWSGI ``searxng.ini``
 | |
|   file manually.
 | |
| 
 | |
| 
 | |
| remove obsolete services
 | |
| ------------------------
 | |
| 
 | |
| If your searx instance was installed *"Step by step"* or by the *"Installation
 | |
| scripts"*, you need to undo the installation procedure completely.  If you have
 | |
| morty & filtron installed, it is recommended to uninstall these services also.
 | |
| In case of scripts, to uninstall use the scripts from the origin you installed
 | |
| searx from or try::
 | |
| 
 | |
|   $ sudo -H ./utils/filtron.sh remove all
 | |
|   $ sudo -H ./utils/morty.sh   remove all
 | |
|   $ sudo -H ./utils/searx.sh   remove all
 | |
| 
 | |
| .. hint::
 | |
| 
 | |
|    If you are migrate from searx take into account that the ``.config.sh`` is no
 | |
|    longer used.
 | |
| 
 | |
| If you upgrade from searx or from before :pull:`1332` has been merged and you
 | |
| have filtron and/or morty installed, don't forget to remove HTTP sites.
 | |
| 
 | |
| Apache::
 | |
| 
 | |
|   $ sudo -H ./utils/filtron.sh apache remove
 | |
|   $ sudo -H ./utils/morty.sh apache remove
 | |
| 
 | |
| nginx::
 | |
| 
 | |
|   $ sudo -H ./utils/filtron.sh nginx remove
 | |
|   $ sudo -H ./utils/morty.sh nginx remove
 | |
| 
 | |
| 
 | |
| 
 | |
| Check after Installation
 | |
| ------------------------
 | |
| 
 | |
| Once you have done your installation, you can run a SearXNG *check* procedure,
 | |
| to see if there are some left overs.  In this example there exists a *old*
 | |
| ``/etc/searx/settings.yml``::
 | |
| 
 | |
|    $ sudo -H ./utils/searxng.sh instance check
 | |
| 
 | |
