Closes#4
The default url redirects to a session validation url first (w/ status
code 307). Disabling cookies by default allows a 200 code to be returned
for successful searches.
Although the current list of queries is only 2 elements ("time" and
"weather"), this allows searches for Whoogle and Searx to be slightly
more random, and potentially avoid any issues with their parent engine
rate limiting them.
* Create nightly update workflow for instances
A nightly GitHub Actions CI workflow has been added to fetch new
instances of supported services within Farside.
Currently only Searx is supported, but obviously others could be added
if there are similarly easy ways to fetch and filter instances
programmatically.
services.json has also been updated with the initial results of the
workflow script.
* Set headers for every HTTPoison request
This serves as a workaround for bot blocking via filtron.
* Expand filtering of searx instances
New filter enforces:
- No Cloudflare
- Good TLS config
- Good HTTP header config
- Vanilla instances or forks
- Instances with 100% search success
