# bunbun
_Self-hostable, easy-to-configure, fast search/jump multiplexer service._
bunbun is a pure-[Rust][rust-lang] implementation of [bunny1][bunny1], providing
a customizable search engine and quick-jump tool in one.
After adding it to your web-browser and setting it as your default search
engine, you'll gain the ability to quick-jump to a specific page or search from
a specific engine:
```
g hello world // Searches "hello world" in google
r anime // Goes to reddit.com/r/anime
ls // Lists all available commands and aliases
foo bar // If foo is a defined command, do something with bar
// Alternatively, if a default route is set, use the entire
// query for the default route
```
## Installation
If you have `cargo`, you can simply run `cargo install bunbun`.
Once installed, simply run it. A default config file will be created if one does
not exist. You should model your own custom routes after the provided ones.
### Configuration
If configuring for development, no further configuration is required. If running
this for production, you should edit the `public_address` field.
### Adding bunbun as a search engine
bunbun supports the [OpenSearch Description Format][osdf].
For Chrome, simply visiting the index page will auto add bunbun as a search
engine. You simply need to set it as a default in your preferences.
For Firefox, you need to explicitly add bunbun as a search engine. This can be
done by clicking the three dots next to the star button on the url box, and
clicking on "Add Search Engine". Then, you can set it as your default search
engine.
