Integrating hister with searxng

[g2mt]

Thanks for creating hister! I found that hister is a useful application for tracking and searching through my browsing history. I integrated it into my self-hosted instance of searxng for use as a general search engine.

Unfortunately there's no native searxng plugin for hister. I had to use the built in json_engine for parsing the results. Here's my configuration if anyone wants to copy it:

    engine: json_engine
    paging : false
    search_url : 'http://10.0.2.100:4433/search?q={query}&format=json'
    results_query: documents
    url_query: url
    title_query: title
    content_query: metadata/description
    thumbnail_query: ""

10.0.2.100 with my docker's hister address. Only the first page of the search result is shown since searxng only supports offset-based pagination. I would write a plugin for this but realistically I only view the first page.

Thanks for sharing it. I think the JSON engine is completely fine here. You can increase the result's per page in Hister instead of implementing it as a native searx engine - way less effort.

Btw, I'm the original author of Searx =]
