Seia
Multi-engine web search
Introduction
seia is a multi-engine web search library and CLI. It provides a unified interface to query diverse search backends. Engines that do not require authentication work out of the box with zero configuration.
Quick Start
CLI
# Basic search (no API key required)
seia search "rust async patterns"
# Choose a specific engine
seia search "Klein bottle" --engine wikipedia
# JSON output
seia search "climate change" --json
# Through a proxy
HTTPS_PROXY=http://localhost:7890 seia search "hello world"
Library
use seia::{SearchClient, Engine};
let client = SearchClient::new();
let results = client.search("rust async", Engine::Wikipedia).await?;
Development
just ci # fmt-check + clippy + test
just test # cargo test
just test-proxy # run tests through localhost:7890 proxy (see tests/README)
