Enable limiter by default

For limiter.toml, can't we just have this content:

[botdetection.ip_limit]

link_token = true

?

This way we do not touch the default settings.

[dalf]

nope : this works only for settings.yml

[unixfox]

Hum that's a huge bummer, wasn't that one of the benefit of using toml that you said @return42?

We would like to override values like ipv4_prefix or ipv6_prefix in the future.

[return42]

nope : this works only for settings.yml

Thats not true, I implemented https://github.com/searxng/searxng/blob/master/searx/tools/config.py with this config class the defaults are read from the schema file and updated by the /etc/searxng/limiter.toml file .. see https://github.com/searxng/searxng/blob/71358e9c673247e16125dc32b70f2553c469d814/searx/botdetection/limiter.py#L70-L85

My memory is not failing, thank you @return42.

@dalf could you update the limiter.toml? thank you

[dalf]

Done, at least I hope so. The searx.tools and searx.botlimiter aka limiter are unknown to me.

The only issue here is that this will require people to git pull then docker compose up for this new change to be effective.

Just tested on:

• https://search.im-in.space/
• https://searx.headpat.exchange/

works really great
