There is an opensearch description for peekier here: https://peekier.com/assets/opensearch.xml.

All that’s needed is to add a file src/app/webbrowser/searchengines/, see e.g. https://bazaar.launchpad.net/~phablet-team/webbrowser-app/trunk/view/head:/src/app/webbrowser/searchengines/duckduckgo.xml

Contributions welcome!

Sorry but I can't assure to do that right now, because I have no spare time in these days. So if someone would like to implement, I am happy ;)
Thanks Oliver Tilloy for your answer!
