How to use msgexport
Downloading msgexport
Download latest build from releases or build it yourself.
Creating a project
First you need to create a msgexport project. To do that you need to run:
msgexport --new project.msge
.msge file is just a simple zip file that contains all of the messages and media.
Adding users to a project
First you need to add users to the project. The users in a project are all of the participants that are in the chat. You the user count needs to have at least the amount of participants. You cannot have a participant in a chat that doesn't have a user.
Why is it this way
Let say that on WhatsApp the person is called by his first name, lets say Joe. The same person can have his nickname as his name on Instagram. We need to know which user is who. This is why we create users in out project. We name them however we want and then when we start merging the messages we say that for example LegendMaster123 is Joe. Then it will automatically assign all the messages from LegendMaster123 to Joe.
msgexport --users project.msge
Merging messages
To merge a messages from a specific platform you need to run this:
msgexport --add project.msge
Then continue to a documentation for the specific platform.
