Hi

Hi guys, Your app looks quite cool. Congrats.

Just passed by to mention my tool https://github.com/lucasrodes/whatstk, which I have been developing for some years now. I believe it might cover some chat formats that your backend tool might not.

Anyway, just an FYI message if you'd want to use it, I'd be happy to help and/or enhance my library based on your needs.

Kind regards, and feel free to close this issue.

Sure thing man! We would love to collaborate with you. We are also thinking about v2.0 with a sentiment analysis feature.

Hi, and sorry for my belated response!

The whatstk library currently provides an easy interface to map a text file to a data frame.

It is straightforward to use and can read a wide variety of chat formats out of the box, without specifying the format itself:

from whatstk import df_from_txt_whatsapp
df = df_from_txt_whatsapp("path/to/chat.txt")

You can install the library via PyPi: pip install whatstk.

If the format was very tricky (I still haven't found any), you can specify it via the argument hformat (see docs).

Having said this, I am happy to jump into a call if you are interested in adopting this library for textfile-to-dataframe parsing part.

Kind regards,
