	This patch migrates from `redis==5.2.1` [1] to `valkey==6.1.0` [2].
The migration to valkey is necessary because the company behind Redis has decided
to abandon the open source license. After experiencing a drop in user numbers,
they now want to run it under a dual license again. But this move demonstrates
once again how unreliable the company is and how it treats open source
developers.
To review first, read the docs::
    $ make docs.live
Follow the instructions to remove redis:
- http://0.0.0.0:8000/admin/settings/settings_redis.html
Config and install a local valkey DB:
- http://0.0.0.0:8000/admin/settings/settings_valkey.html

|    Initial sponsored by `Search and Discovery Fund
 | |
|    <https://nlnet.nl/discovery>`_ of `NLnet Foundation <https://nlnet.nl/>`_.
 | |
| 
 | |
| The following `NoSQL databases`_ are supported:
 | |
| 
 | |
| - :ref:`engine valkey_server`
 | |
| - :ref:`engine mongodb`
 | |
| 
 | |
| All of the engines above are just commented out in the :origin:`settings.yml
 | |
| <searx/settings.yml>`, as you have to set various options and install
 | |
| dependencies before using them.
 | |
| 
 | |
| By default, the engines use the ``key-value`` template for displaying results /
 | |
| see :origin:`simple <searx/templates/simple/result_templates/key-value.html>`
 | |
| theme.  If you are not satisfied with the original result layout, you can use
 | |
| your own template, set ``result_template`` attribute to ``{template_name}`` and
 | |
| place the templates at::
 | |
| 
 | |
|   searx/templates/{theme_name}/result_templates/{template_name}
 | |
| 
 | |
| 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 ``tokens`` as described in
 | |
| section :ref:`private engines`.
 | |
| 
 | |
| 
 | |
| Extra Dependencies
 | |
| ==================
 | |
| 
 | |
| For using :ref:`engine valkey_server` or :ref:`engine mongodb` you need to
 | |
| install additional packages in Python's Virtual Environment of your SearXNG
 | |
| instance.  To switch into the environment (:ref:`searxng-src`) you can use
 | |
| :ref:`searxng.sh`::
 | |
| 
 | |
|   $ sudo utils/searxng.sh instance cmd bash
 | |
|   (searxng-pyenv)$ pip install ...
 | |
| 
 | |
| 
 | |
| Configure the engines
 | |
| =====================
 | |
| 
 | |
| `NoSQL databases`_ are used for storing arbitrary data without first defining
 | |
| their structure.
