# Seekr Engines

seekr.com Seeker Score

Seekr is a privately held search and content evaluation engine that prioritizes credibility over popularity.

## Configuration

The engine has the following additional settings:

- `seekr_category`

- `api_key`

This implementation is used by seekr engines in the settings.yml:

    - name: seekr news
      seekr_category: news
      ...
    - name: seekr images
      seekr_category: images
      ...
    - name: seekr videos
      seekr_category: videos
      ...

## Known Quirks

The implementation to support `paging` is based on the nextpage method of Seekr’s REST API. This feature is next page driven and plays well with the infinite_scroll setting in SearXNG but it does not really fit into SearXNG’s UI to select a page by number.

## Implementations

searx.engines.seekr.api_key = 'srh1-22fb-sekr'

  API key / reversed engineered / is still the same one since 2022.

searx.engines.seekr.seekr_category: str = 'unset'

  Search category, any of `news`, `videos` or `images`.
