junvandCopilot 0adad147f5 fix: dynamic API docs URLs match browser address
OpenAPI schema now derives the server URL from the incoming request
(Host header + X-Forwarded-Proto/X-Forwarded-Host for reverse proxies).
Curl examples in API docs use $BASE_URL placeholder which is replaced
at serve-time with the actual origin, so docs work correctly behind
nginx or any reverse proxy with a custom domain.

Hey Search

A privacy-respecting metasearch engine that aggregates results from multiple search engines.

Inspired by SearXNG.

Architecture

  • Backend: Python / FastAPI — async metasearch orchestrator with retry logic
  • Frontend: React + Vite + TypeScript + Tailwind CSS (shadcn theming) — mobile-first UI
  • Docker: Multi-stage build (Node frontend build → Python runtime)

Prerequisites

  • uv (Python package manager)
  • Node.js >= 18
  • Python >= 3.12

Running Locally

1. Backend

cd backend
uv sync                # install dependencies
uv run uvicorn app.main:app --reload --port 8000

The API will be available at http://localhost:8000. Interactive docs:

2. Frontend

cd frontend
npm install            # install dependencies
npm run dev            # start dev server with hot reload

The frontend dev server runs at http://localhost:5173 and proxies /api requests to the backend.

3. Docker (production)

docker build -t hey-search .
docker run -p 8000:8000 hey-search

Then open http://localhost:8000.
