Simple Python library to return your shell history or dump to a JSON file.

You can install this library via pip:

pip install shhistory

Example

A quick example to print the JSON data to stdout:

# test.py
from shhistory import ShellHistory

print(ShellHistory.get_shell_history())

You can also create a quick bash utility with this library by piping to jq for nicer formatting:

python3 test.py | jq

from shhistory import ShellHistory

print(ShellHistory.dump_shell_history())
