deploy-searxng
About
This Claude Skill deploys a self-hosted SearXNG meta search engine using Docker Compose, providing private, untracked search aggregation from multiple providers. It handles configuration, Nginx setup, and persistent deployment for team or organizational use. Use it to replace reliance on commercial search engines with a customizable, privacy-focused alternative.

部署 SearXNG
以 Docker Compose 與 Nginx 部自宿之 SearXNG 元搜索引擎。
用時
- 立私人自宿搜索引擎
- 匯多供商之結果而不跟蹤
- 為團隊或組織行搜索實例
- 去單一搜索供商之賴
入
- 必要:已裝 Docker 之伺或機
- 可選:供公訪之域名
- 可選:SSL 證書或 Let's Encrypt 設
- 可選:自定引擎之偏好
法
第一步:建項目結構
mkdir -p searxng/{config,nginx}
cd searxng
第二步:書 Docker Compose 文件
docker-compose.yml:
services:
searxng:
image: searxng/searxng:latest
container_name: searxng
volumes:
- ./config:/etc/searxng:rw
environment:
- SEARXNG_BASE_URL=https://search.example.com/
cap_drop:
- ALL
cap_add:
- CHOWN
- SETGID
- SETUID
restart: unless-stopped
networks:
- searxng
nginx:
image: nginx:1.27-alpine
container_name: searxng-nginx
ports:
- "8080:80"
volumes:
- ./nginx/nginx.conf:/etc/nginx/nginx.conf:ro
depends_on:
- searxng
restart: unless-stopped
networks:
- searxng
networks:
searxng:
driver: bridge
第三步:配 SearXNG 設定
config/settings.yml:
use_default_settings: true
general:
instance_name: "My SearXNG"
privacypolicy_url: false
contact_url: false
search:
safe_search: 0
autocomplete: "google"
default_lang: "en"
server:
secret_key: "generate-a-random-secret-key-here"
limiter: true
image_proxy: true
port: 8080
bind_address: "0.0.0.0"
ui:
static_use_hash: true
default_theme: simple
infinite_scroll: true
engines:
- name: google
engine: google
shortcut: g
disabled: false
- name: duckduckgo
engine: duckduckgo
shortcut: ddg
disabled: false
- name: wikipedia
engine: wikipedia
shortcut: wp
disabled: false
- name: github
engine: github
shortcut: gh
disabled: false
- name: stackoverflow
engine: stackoverflow
shortcut: so
disabled: false
- name: arxiv
engine: arxiv
shortcut: arx
disabled: false
生密鑰:
openssl rand -hex 32
第四步:配 Nginx 前端
nginx/nginx.conf:
events {
worker_connections 1024;
}
http {
server {
listen 80;
location / {
proxy_pass http://searxng:8080;
proxy_set_header Host $host;
proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Proto $scheme;
proxy_set_header Connection "";
proxy_buffering off;
}
location /static/ {
proxy_pass http://searxng:8080/static/;
expires 1y;
add_header Cache-Control "public, immutable";
}
}
}
第五步:配限流
config/limiter.toml:
[botdetection.ip_limit]
link_token = true
[botdetection.ip_lists]
block_ip = []
pass_ip = ["127.0.0.1/8", "::1/128"]
pass_searxng_org = false
第六步:部署並驗
# Start the stack
docker compose up -d
# Check logs
docker compose logs -f searxng
# Verify it's running
curl -s http://localhost:8080 | head -5
# Test a search
curl -s "http://localhost:8080/search?q=test&format=json" | head -20
得: SearXNG 經 Nginx 於 8080 端應。搜索返匯總結果。
敗則: 察 docker compose logs searxng 以尋配錯。驗 settings.yml YAML 法。
第七步:加 SSL(產)
供公部署宜加 SSL 終止。更新 docker-compose.yml:
services:
nginx:
ports:
- "80:80"
- "443:443"
volumes:
- ./nginx/nginx-ssl.conf:/etc/nginx/nginx.conf:ro
- certbot-certs:/etc/letsencrypt:ro
- certbot-webroot:/var/www/certbot:ro
certbot:
image: certbot/certbot
volumes:
- certbot-certs:/etc/letsencrypt
- certbot-webroot:/var/www/certbot
volumes:
certbot-certs:
certbot-webroot:
詳見 configure-nginx 技能之全 SSL Nginx 配。
第八步:更新與維護
# Pull latest image
docker compose pull searxng
# Restart with new image
docker compose up -d
# Backup configuration
cp -r config/ config-backup-$(date +%Y%m%d)/
驗
- SearXNG 啟日誌無錯
- 搜索由所配引擎返結果
- 圖代理可行(圖由 SearXNG 載)
- 限流阻過量請求
- 配置越容器重啟而存
- Nginx 正代理請求
陷
- 無 secret_key:settings.yml 無
secret_key則 SearXNG 拒啟。 - 配權限:SearXNG 寫入配目錄。卷宜
:rw非:ro。 - 引擎阻:某些引擎阻伺 IP 之請求。輪換引擎或用圖代理。
- YAML 縮進:
settings.yml對縮進敏。部前以 YAML linter 驗。 - 基 URL 不合:
SEARXNG_BASE_URL宜合用者實際訪之 URL,含協議與尾斜。 - Docker 中 DNS 解析:用 Google/Bing 之引擎或需主機網或正 DNS。默 Docker DNS 常可。
