Configuration

Installed From Source

If you have built websurfx from the source then the configuration file will be located under the project directory (codebase) at websurfx/

If you have built websurfx with an unstable/rolling/edge branch then you can copy the configuration file from websurfx/config.lua located under the project directory (codebase) to ~/.config/websurfx/ and make the changes there and rerun the websurfx server. This is only available from unstable/rolling/edge version.

Installed From Package

If you have installed websurfx using the package manager of your Linux distro then the default configuration file will be located at /etc/xdg/websurfx/. You can copy the default config to ~/.config/websurfx/ make the changes there and rerun the websurfx server.

Some of the configuration options provided in the file are stated below. These are subdivided into the following categories:

  • General
  • Server
  • Search
  • Website
  • Cache
  • Search Engines

General

  • logging: An option to enable or disable logs.
  • debug: An option to enable or disable debug mode.
  • threads: The amount of threads that the app will use to run (the value should be greater than 0).

Server

  • port: Port number on which server should be launched.
  • binding_ip_addr: IP address on the which server should be launched.
  • production_use: Whether to use production mode or not (in other words this option should be used if it is to be used to host it on the server to provide a service to a large number of users). If production_use is set to true. There will be a random delay before sending the request to the search engines, this is to prevent DDoSing the upstream search engines from a large number of simultaneous requests.
  • request_timeout: Timeout for the search requests sent to the upstream search engines to be fetched (value in seconds).
  • rate_limiter: The configuration option to configure rate limiting on the search engine website.

Search

  • safe_search: This option is used to configure the search filtering based on different safe search levels. (value a number between 0 to 4)

This option provides 4 levels of search filtering:

  • Level 0 - With this level no search filtering occurs.
  • Level 1 - With this level some search filtering occurs.
  • Level 2 - With this level the upstream search engines are restricted to sending sensitive content like NSFW search results, etc.
  • Level 3 - With this level the regex-based filter lists are used alongside level 2 to filter more search results that have slipped in or custom results that need to be filtered using the filter lists.
  • Level 4 - This level is similar to level 3 except in this level the regex-based filter lists are used to disallow users to search sensitive or disallowed content. This level could be useful if you are a parent or someone who wants to completely disallow their kids or yourself from watching sensitive content.

Website

  • colorscheme: The colorscheme name which should be used for the website theme (the name should be by the colorscheme file name present in the public/static/colorschemes folder).

Cache
