The tool navigates this complex structure automatically to extract the WhatsApp data. A backup path usually looks like:
`/path/to/backup/46de1f4ca4a30b155985910d009edaf586236798/`

### iOS Backup Storage Tipp:
Make a symlink from your `$HOME/Library/Application Support/MobileSync/Backup/` to a path in your external drive, if you don't have enough internal disk space on your Mac:

```
ln -s /Volume/ArchiveMedia/iphone-backup $HOME/Library/Application Support/MobileSync/Backup
```

## Usage

Run the exporter with your iOS backup path:

```
python3 whatsapp_exporter.py \
--backup-path="/Volume/BackupMedia/iphone-backup/46de1f4ca4a30b155985910d009edaf586236798/" \
--output-path="/Volume/BackupMedia/whatsapp-archive/data"
--backup-path="$HOME/Library/Application Support/MobileSync/Backup/ 46de1f4ca4a30b155985910d009edaf586236798/" \
--output-path="/Volume/ArchiveMedia/whatsapp-archive/data"
```
