Development Quickstart

SearXNG loves developers, just clone and start hacking.  All the rest is done for
 | 
						|
you simply by using :ref:`make <makefile>`.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
.. code:: sh
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    git clone https://github.com/searxng/searxng.git searxng
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Here is how a minimal workflow looks like:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
1. *start* hacking
 | 
						|
2. *run* your code: :ref:`make run`
 | 
						|
3. *test* your code: :ref:`make test`
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
If you think at some point something fails, go back to *start*.  Otherwise,
 | 
						|
choose a meaningful commit message and we are happy to receive your pull
 | 
						|
request. To not end in *wild west* we have some directives, please pay attention
 | 
						|
to our ":ref:`how to contribute`" guideline.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
If you implement themes, you will need to setup a :ref:`make node.env` once:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
.. code:: sh
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
   make node.env
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Before you call *make run* (2.), you need to compile the modified styles and
 | 
						|
JavaScript:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
.. code:: sh
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
   make themes.all
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Alternatively you can also compile selective the theme you have modified,
 | 
						|
e.g. the *simple* theme.
 | 
						|
.. code:: sh
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
   make themes.simple
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
If you finished your *tests* you can start to commit your changes.  To separate
 | 
						|
the modified source code from the build products first run:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
.. code:: sh
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
   make static.build.restore
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
This will restore the old build products and only your changes of the code
 | 
						|
remain in the working tree which can now be added & commited.  When all sources
 | 
						|
are commited, you can commit the build products simply by:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
.. code:: sh
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
   make static.build.commit
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Commiting the build products should be the last step, just before you send us
 | 
						|
your PR.  There is also a make target to rewind this last build commit:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
.. code:: sh
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
   make static.build.drop
