Skype SQLite DB empty and not sure how to read IndexedDB












0















I have Ubuntu 18.04.2 LTS Desktop and Skype 8.34.0.78 and there's /home/{user_name}/.config/skypeforlinux/databases/Databases.db that opens up in SQLiteStudio and I see the familiar table structure but there's no data in it at all.



So I searched for a string I recently used in Skype chat and found only one file containing it: /home/crewnew/Documents/IndexedDB/file__0.indexeddb.leveldb/000006.log but not sure how to read that file. SQLiteStudio can't open it and neither I can read it with my PHP code that I use to read Skype's main.db generated in Win10 machine:



$db = new SQLite3('skype.db');
$results = $db->query('SELECT nsp_data FROM messagesv12');
while ($row = $results->fetchArray()) {
// And here's the data:
// $messages['cuid']
// $messages['conversationId']
// $messages['creator']
// $messages['createdTime']
// $messages['content']
}


Basically I'm checking Skype db constantly if there are new messages in certain group chat and then send to MatterMost channel the messages but I had issues with WAMP server so I ended up installing Ubuntu and I love it in every way except the Skype DB issue. Maybe I should send Skype messages to MatterMost just in a different way?

    IndexedDB isn't SQLite and isn't searched with SQL. It also isn't a Relational Database like SQLite is. Most of the documentation on how to interface with it I've found is JavaScript, unfortunately... such as this tutorial shows or even Mozilla's documentation.

  • Thanks Thomas! So no SQLite in Linux Skype?

  • As Skype is closed source software, I don't have the information to answer you; the only way to determine if Skype still uses SQLite is to dissect the code or ask Microsoft yourself.
