Firefox Session Extractor

For when something goes wrong!

• Go from "jsonlz4" to "json" and back again.
• Obtain statistics about how many windows and tabs were opened.
• View all opened tabs.

Technical Details

Mozilla lz4 files / jsonlz4

Mozilla uses an extremely simple compression format to save space.

These files are stored in places like:

• /home//snap/firefox/common/.mozilla/firefox//sessionstore-backups/<file_name>.jsonlz4

Session Data

Firefox session data is nested, and can contain back/forward information.

TODO:

• .gitignore
• Automatic code formatting & git hooks
• Testing
• Upload to PyPI
• Create / find a JSON schema file for firefox session data.
• Better document session data format.
