Detailed Description

`Anna's Archive`_ is a free non-profit online shadow library metasearch
engine providing access to a variety of book resources (also via IPFS), created
by a team of anonymous archivists (AnnaArchivist_).

.. _Anna's Archive: https://annas-archive.org/
.. _AnnaArchivist: https://annas-software.org/AnnaArchivist/annas-archive

Configuration
=============

The engine has the following additional settings:

- :py:obj:`aa_content`
- :py:obj:`aa_ext`
- :py:obj:`aa_sort`

With this options a SearXNG maintainer is able to configure **additional**
engines for specific searches in Anna's Archive.  For example a engine to search
for *newest* articles and journals (PDF) / by shortcut ``!aaa <search-term>``.

.. code:: yaml

  - name: annas articles
    engine: annas_archive
    shortcut: aaa
    aa_content: 'magazine'
    aa_ext: 'pdf'
    aa_sort: 'newest'
