<p>SearXNG loves developers; Developers do not need to worry about tool chains, the
|
||
usual developer tasks can be comfortably executed via <a class="reference internal" href="makefile.html#makefile"><span class="std std-ref">make</span></a>.</p>
|
||
<p>Don’t hesitate, just clone SearXNG’s sources and start hacking right now ..</p>

|

</div>
|
||
<p>For the developer environment, <a class="reference external" href="https://mise.jdx.dev/getting-started.html">mise en place</a> is recommended:</p>
|

<div class="highlight-sh notranslate"><div class="highlight"><pre><span></span>$<span class="w"> </span>curl<span class="w"> </span>https://mise.run<span class="w"> </span><span class="p">|</span><span class="w"> </span>sh

|

</div>
|
||
<p>The tools required for a developer environment are provided via <a class="reference external" href="https://github.com/searxng/searxng/blob/master/mise.toml">mise.toml</a>,
|
||
trust the project:</p>
|

<div class="highlight-sh notranslate"><div class="highlight"><pre><span></span>$<span class="w"> </span>mise<span class="w"> </span>trust
|
||
</pre></div>
|

</div>
|
||
<p>Here is how a minimal workflow looks like:</p>
|
||
<ol class="arabic simple">
|
||
<li><p><em>start</em> hacking</p></li>
|
||
<li><p><em>run</em> your code: <a class="reference internal" href="makefile.html#make-run"><span class="std std-ref">make run</span></a></p></li>
|
||
<li><p><em>format & test</em> your code: <a class="reference internal" href="makefile.html#make-format"><span class="std std-ref">make format</span></a> and <a class="reference internal" href="makefile.html#make-test"><span class="std std-ref">make test</span></a></p></li>
|
||
</ol>
|
||
<p>If you think at some point something fails, go back to <em>start</em>. Otherwise,
|
||
choose a meaningful commit message and we are happy to receive your pull
|
||
request. To not end in <em>wild west</em> we have some directives, please pay attention
|
||
to our “<a class="reference internal" href="contribution_guide.html#how-to-contribute"><span class="std std-ref">How to contribute</span></a>” guideline.</p>
|
||
<p>If you want to debug with the <em>good old Python Debugger</em> <a class="reference external" href="https://docs.python.org/3/library/pdb.html#module-pdb">pdb</a>: Alternatively to
|
||
<code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">make</span> <span class="pre">run</span></code> (2.) which starts a <a class="reference internal" href="../admin/installation-granian.html#searxng-granian"><span class="std std-ref">Granian</span></a> server you can jump
|
||
into the developer environment and start a python based HTTP server by:</p>
|
||
<div class="highlight-default notranslate"><div class="highlight"><pre><span></span>$ ./manage dev.env
|
||
...
|
||
(dev.env)$ SEARXNG_DEBUG=1 python -m searx.webapp
|
||
</pre></div>
|
||
</div>
|
||
<p>Since this is a pure Python solution, you can set breakpoints in your code with
|
||
<code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">pdb.set_trace()</span></code> and the debugger will wait for you in the terminal prompt.</p>

|

</ul>
|

</aside>
|
||
<p>If you implement themes, you will need to setup a <a class="reference internal" href="makefile.html#make-node-env"><span class="std std-ref">Node.js environment</span></a>. Before you call <em>make run</em> (2.), you need to compile the
|
||
modified styles and JavaScript: <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">make</span> <span class="pre">node.clean</span> <span class="pre">themes.all</span></code>. If <a class="reference external" href="https://biomejs.dev/">Biome</a>
|
||
or <a class="reference external" href="https://stylelint.io/">Stylelint</a> reports issues, try <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">make</span> <span class="pre">themes.fix</span></code>.</p>
|
||
<p>Alternatively you can also compile selective the theme you have modified,
|
||
e.g. the <em>simple</em> theme.</p>
|
||
<div class="highlight-bash notranslate"><div class="highlight"><pre><span></span>make<span class="w"> </span>themes.simple

<p class="admonition-title">Tip</p>
|
||
<p>To get live builds while modifying CSS & JS use: <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">LIVE_THEME=simple</span> <span class="pre">make</span> <span class="pre">run</span></code></p>

</ul>
|

</aside>
|
||
<p>If you finished your <em>tests</em> you can start to commit your changes. To separate
|
||
the modified source code from the build products first run:</p>
|
||
<div class="highlight-bash notranslate"><div class="highlight"><pre><span></span>make<span class="w"> </span>static.build.restore
|
||
</pre></div>
|
||
</div>
|
||
<p>This will restore the old build products and only your changes of the code
|
||
remain in the working tree which can now be added & committed. When all sources
|
||
are committed, you can commit the build products simply by:</p>
|
||
<div class="highlight-bash notranslate"><div class="highlight"><pre><span></span>make<span class="w"> </span>static.build.commit
|
||
</pre></div>
|
||
</div>
|
||
<p>Committing 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:</p>
|
||
<div class="highlight-bash notranslate"><div class="highlight"><pre><span></span>make<span class="w"> </span>static.build.drop
|
||
</pre></div>
