Sample backup for testing #47

Open quintrino opened 3 years ago

Hi,

I'm looking at getting Signal-backup-decode installable by homebrew (https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-core/pull/76671) but I need a sample file to decrypt for testing the install and build.

How would I go about creating a sample backup file to test signal-backup-decode is working?

Hey,

It would be really awesome to have a sample backup file and have an integration test on that. So far, I didn't know where to get it from. Maybe the easiest solution is to run a new signal installation on a phone, send some test messages, and make a backup. With protobuf you should be able to create a backup manually, but I think that's a lot of work.

Please notify us, if you have access to a sample backup file.

Best
