Original idea is from this post
-
Open a tab and navigate to the website where you have content to export.
-
Open devtools and switch to the console tab.
-
Copy and paste the following snippet in the console and Chrome should ask you to save the output file
var obj = JSON.stringify(localStorage, null, 4)
var vLink = document.createElement('a')
vBlob = new Blob([obj], {type: "octet/stream"})
vUrl = window.webkitURL.createObjectURL(vBlob);
vLink.setAttribute('href', vUrl);
vLink.setAttribute('download', vUrl.split('/')[2] + '-export.json'); // give you the website name + "export.json"
vLink.click();- Profit!
I tried to use this to transfer my telegram web to another machine. The script worked fine, but telegram detected the tampering and logged me out :(
A note for others that may try to do something similar to this
