Privacy policy

The two external services that can be called by Taranis are respectful of privacy. Those policies can be checked on:

Install

  1. Download the taranis.pbi file from the latest release latest release.

  2. Copy that file to the e-book reader and open the corresponding "book" using the library application to start the installation process.

  3. After the installation, the "book" can be safely suppressed from the library and the device.

An alternative is to download the taranis.zip file and copy the extracted files to the applications directory on the e-book reader.

A custom icon can be associated to the application launch button; Instructions are given in Desktop integration.

Configuration

Note that the Openweather API key distributed with the application is rate limited. A custom API key can be specified through the "Parameters…" menu item (See OpenWeather for instructions on how to register and generate API keys).

There's no need for an API key to consume Open-Meteo since Taranis uses their free non-commercial API service.

Another parameter allows to enable/disable generation of a shutdown logo. Instructions are given in Desktop integration on how to setup the device to effectively display this logo on power off.

Contributing

No developer skills are required to contribute to translations or add support for new languages, thanks to the Weblate platform. More on this topic in the translations documentation.

Instructions to install an unreleased version, debug, etc. can be found in the CONTRIBUTING guide.
