Syntax: $search (search engine) (term)

SpectrixDev commented 6 years ago

What will it search with? Google?

brahmnw commented 6 years ago

google has an api, im pretty sure yahoo does too. i dont see why you can't do that.

SpectrixDev commented 6 years ago

I can do that, it's just that he was very unclear

SuperMarioLord64 commented 6 years ago

I used angle brackets which happened to be HTML format and git didn't like it.

SpectrixDev commented 6 years ago

So it will be multiple search engines? Ok, that probably isn't that hard...

SuperMarioLord64 commented 6 years ago

It could work with Auxiliatrium. How do you pronounce that, lol?

SpectrixDev commented 6 years ago

It's unpronounceable

SpectrixDev commented 6 years ago

Also, Auxiliatrium doesn't use the Google API. So I'd have to do something different

SuperMarioLord64 commented 6 years ago

Au-xilia-trium

SuperMarioLord64 commented 6 years ago

:P

Google really doesn't like scrapers. I don't recommend this. If you do use it just use a pip package

brahmnw commented 6 years ago

LevitatingBusinessMan commented 6 years ago
