# Google Search bot
|
||
|
|
||
|
This bot allows users to do Google search queries and have the bot
|
||
|
respond with the first search result. It is by default set to the
|
||
|
highest safe-search setting.
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Usage
|
||
|
|
||
|
Run this bot as described
|
||
|
[here](http://zulip.readthedocs.io/en/latest/bots-guide.html#how-to-deploy-a-bot).
|
||
|
|
||
|
Use this bot with the following command
|
||
|
|
||
|
`@mentioned-bot <search terms>`
|
||
|
|
||
|
This will return the first link found by Google for `<search terms>`
|
||
|
and print the resulting URL.
|
||
|
|
||
|
If no `<search terms>` are entered, a help message is printed instead.
|
||
|
|
||
|
If there was an error in the process of running the search (socket
|
||
|
errors, Google search function failed, or general failures), an error
|
||
|
message is returned.
