v2.5.2 Changes

v2.5.0

• [ADDED] Added a new Enum class Information.
• [ADDED] Added getinfo function in the Information Enum to gather information about a given topic, using Wikipedia.
• [ADDED] Add web_scraper function in the Information Enum, to web scrape a URL that is given.
• [ADDED] Added bs4 and requests as dependencies.
• [MODIFIED] The Searchor Package is now officially becoming a library, and is therefore no longer considered a package.

v2.5.2

• [FIXED] Fixed issue with web scraping, with attribute errors, and CLI issues

Migration

Instead of different functions for each engine, Searchor v2.2.0 uses a single function with an Engine enum. This makes it easier to use and maintain. If you're migrating from v2.0.0, compare the differences between the following snippets:

# Searchor 2.0.0
from searchor import search, Engine
search("Hello, World!", Engine.Google)

# Searchor v2.2.0
from searchor import Engine
Engine.Google.search("Hello, World!")
