whatsapp_chat_dump

A small script for listing and exporting WhatsApp chat sessions into a readable HTML-File. It can now export

• Texts,
• Images and
• Videos.

If requested, I will add voice message support aswell.

NOTICE

As of now, I am working on a rewrite, which includes several new features, including

• Export to JSON, HTML, TXT, etc.
• Support for texts, imagesm, videos and voice messages
• Support for group chats
• Support for Hyperlinks
• ... and more.

Since I'm working on it in my free time, there is no fixed date for when it will be finished.

Important

This project requires the following modules:

• Docopt
• Pandas
• Yattag

Furthermore, the ChatStorage.sqlite file (the WhatsApp Chat database) and the media folder must be in the same directory.
