- theveloped 9y agoAuthor here: Would love to hear the HN thoughts on the project and I'll check in now and then to answer any questions! code: https://github.com/theveloped/WhatsBook https://github.com/theveloped/WhatsBook
- trqx 9y agoThe result is neat. Unfortunately since whatsapp refuses to provide an API, it is very cumbersome to export each chat sessions manually. Have you found a workaround for this?
- theveloped 9y agoMost definetely! As written in the post there is a "new" (don't know how new) feature that let's you export a single chat conversation. Within the chat you can select export chat under options.
- snowpanda 9y agoWould love to have this for Telegram secret chats.
- theveloped 9y agoHaha guess you found the end to end-to-end encryption ;)
- fiatjaf 9y agoWill this .tex file contain all the images? What happens if an image is missing? What about audio and video?
- theveloped 9y agoFor now only still images are supported. These will be checked for availability and if so a reference to them is added in the .tex file. On building the PDF using LaTeX the referenced images will be included.
