):

This function queries the Brave search engine API and returns a dictionary, representing a search result. See https://api.search.brave.com/app/documentation/web-search/query for more details.

Parameters:

  • q (str): The user’s search query term. Query cannot be empty. Maximum of 400 characters and 50 words in the query.
  • country (str): The search query country where results come from. The country string is limited to 2 character country codes of supported countries. For a list of supported values, see Country Codes. (default: :obj:US )
  • search_lang (str): The search language preference. The 2 or more character language code for which search results are provided. For a list of possible values, see Language Codes.
  • ui_lang (str): User interface language preferred in response. Usually of the format ‘<language_code>-<country_code>’. For more, see RFC 9110. For a list of supported values, see UI Language Codes.
  • count (int): The number of search results returned in response. The maximum is 20. The actual number delivered may be less than requested. Combine this parameter with offset to paginate search results.
  • offset (int): The zero based offset that indicates number of search results per page (count) to skip before returning the result. The maximum is 9. The actual number delivered may be less than requested based on the query. In order to paginate results use this parameter together with count. For example, if your user interface displays 20 search results per page, set count to 20 and offset to 0 to show the first page of results. To get subsequent pages, increment offset by 1 (e.g. 0, 1, 2). The results may overlap across multiple pages.
  • safesearch (str): Filters search results for adult content. The following values are supported: - ‘off’: No filtering is done. - ‘moderate’: Filters explicit content, like images and videos, but allows adult domains in the search results. - ‘strict’: Drops all adult content from search results.
  • freshness (Optional[str]): Filters search results by when they were
  • discovered: - ‘pd’: Discovered within the last 24 hours. - ‘pw’: Discovered within the last 7 Days. - ‘pm’: Discovered within the last 31 Days. - ‘py’: Discovered within the last 365 Days. - ‘YYYY-MM-DDtoYYYY-MM-DD’: Timeframe is also supported by specifying the date range e.g. ‘2022-04-01to2022-07-30’.
  • text_decorations (bool): Whether display strings (e.g. result snippets) should include decoration markers (e.g. highlighting characters).
  • spellcheck (bool): Whether to spellcheck provided query. If the spellchecker is enabled, the modified query is always used for search. The modified query can be found in altered key from the query response model.
  • result_filter (Optional[str]): A comma delimited string of result types to include in the search response. Not specifying this parameter will return back all result types in search response where data is available and a plan with the corresponding option is subscribed. The response always includes query and type to identify any query modifications and response type respectively. Available result filter values are: - ‘discussions’ - ‘faq’ - ‘infobox’ - ‘news’ - ‘query’ - ‘summarizer’ - ‘videos’ - ‘web’ - ‘locations’
  • goggles_id (Optional[str]): Goggles act as a custom re-ranking on top of Brave’s search index. For more details, refer to the Goggles repository.
  • units (Optional[str]): The measurement units. If not provided, units are derived from search country. Possible values are: - ‘metric’: The standardized measurement system - ‘imperial’: The British Imperial system of units.
  • extra_snippets (Optional[bool]): A snippet is an excerpt from a page you get as a result of the query, and extra_snippets allow you to get up to 5 additional, alternative excerpts. Only available under Free AI, Base AI, Pro AI, Base Data, Pro Data and Custom plans.
