Latest versionReleased:
Parser and GUI viewer of chatsync/*.dat files from the Skype profile directory
Project description
Skype stores conversations locally in two places. One is a SQLite database file, for which there are several convenient viewers out there.Another is a set of dat files in the chatsync subdirectory of the profile. The latter contain, among other things, the “removed” messagesalong with all the edits. Unfortunately, the format of those dat files does not seem to be documented anywhere, and the readers are scarce.
The package contains a crude file format parser for the dat files in the chatsync directory, created based on the hints,given by user kmn in this discussion.

As the format specification used is not official and incomplete, the parser is limited in what it can do.It may fail on some files, and on other files will only be able to extract messages partially.
In addition, the package contains a simple wx-based GUI tool for searching the log files visually.
Installation
Website ripper copier 3.8.1 keygen. The easiest way to install most Python packages is via easy_install or pip:
If you want to use the GUI tool, you will also need to install wxPython 2.8 or later (it is not installed automatically).
A standalone executable version of the GUI tool for Windows can be downloaded here.
Usage
If you want to parse chatsync files programmatically, check out the SkypeChatSyncScanner and SkypeChatSyncParser classes in skype_chatsync_reader.scanner.A typical usage example is:
Then use p.timestamp, p.participants, and p.conversation to read out the messages. There convenience function parse_chatsync_profile_dir will scanthrough all the dat files in the provided chatsync dir and parse all of them (which can be parsed).
If you want to use the GUI tool, simply run the script:
which is installed into your python’s scripts directory together with the package.
Issues
This is a very crude implementation, written up in a single evening for fun. It is not meant to be production-quality software. There are numerous known and unknown issues.I do not plan to maintain this actively. Feel free to contribute via Github.
