LibreX

A privacy respecting free as in freedom meta search engine

Online instances

If you wish to get your instance added create an issue with the new instance label and this information:

  • the URL of your instance
  • the country where your instance is being hosted

Your request will be rejected if your instance:

  • contains JavaScript
  • contains ads
  • has been heavily modified

Features

  • Ad & JavaScript free
  • Torrent results from popular torrent sites
  • Special queries (e.g.: 1 btc to usd , what does xyz mean etc.)
  • Tracking snippets from URLs are removed
  • Image results are converted to base64 to prevent clients from connecting to Google servers
  • Supports both POST and GET requests
  • Popular social media sites (YouTube, Instagram, Twitter) are replaced with privacy friendly front-ends
  • Easy to use JSON API for developers
  • No 3rd party libs are used
  • Easy to setup

Hosting

Hosting LibreX should be easy since no 3rd party PHP libs are used.
All you need is PHP with the curl extension enabled.

If you want to host it just for yourself a PHP development server should be enough:

git clone https://github.com/hnhx/librex.git
cd librex
sudo php -S 127.0.0.1:80


If you want to host an online instance you should consider using a production web server (e.g.: nginx).

API

Example API request: .../api.php?q=gentoo&p=2&type=0

q is the keyword
p is the result page (the first page is 0)
type is the search type (0=text, 1=image, 2=video, 3=torrent)

The API also supports both POST and GET requests.
