vuryleo / wechat-dump Goto Github PK

WeChat(微信), as the most popular mobile IM app in China, failed to allow users to export well-formatted chat history. This tool can parse and dump WeChat chat history on a rooted android phone.

• python-PIL
• PyQuery
• pysox
• python-csscompressor(optional)
• adb and rooted android phone connected to PC

• Get decrypted WeChat database (Linux only):
  • Automatic: ./android-interact.sh db_decrypt
  • Manual:
    • Get /data/data/com.tencent.mm/MicroMsg/long-long-name/EnMicroMsg.db from root filesystem, possible ways are:
      • ./android-interact.sh db
      • Use your rooted file system manager app
    • Get WeChat uin, possible ways are:
      • ./android-interact.sh uin
      • Login to web wechat, get wxuin=1234567 from document.cookie
    • Get your phone IMEI number, possible ways are:
      • ./android-interact.sh imei
      • Call *#06# on your phone
      • Find IMEI in system settings
    • Decrypt database, will produce decrypted.db:

     ./decrypt_db.sh <path to EnMicroMsg.db> <imei> <uin>
    

• Get WeChat user resource directory from your phone to resource directory:
  • ./android-interact.sh res # you might need to change the resource location in this script if the default doesn't work

• Parse and dump text messages of every contact (resource directory is not required to run this):

./dump_msg.py decrypted.db output_dir

• Dump messages of one contact to rich-content html, containing voice messages, emojis, and images:

./dump_html.py decrypted.db resource <contact name> output.html

See here for an example html.

Screenshots:

• Search by uid/username
• Skip existing files when copying android resources
• Fix rare unhandled types: > 10000 and < 0
• Better user experiences... see grep 'TODO' lib -R
• mac support (For now you will have to compile sqlcipher 2.1.1 by yourself. Also, shell script might work on BSD)
• more easy-to-use for non-programmers (GUI?)

This tool is still under development and testing, therefore it might not work very well on every device.
