As you know that getting the key from /data/data/com.whatsapp/*/key is only possible for root users , can we have something to get the key from the server itself, like say enter an OTP and send some data to server and get the data too
Would love to contribute myself to the development of such a thing as I have seen some libraries/ code snippets doing some stuff like what you have done but to get the key , root access is needed

@B16f00t commented on GitHub (Feb 27, 2021):

Elcomsoft Explorer for WhatsApp has an option to decrypt the database by entering the phone number linked to whatsapp.
It would be a very good feature to implement in Whapa. Any help is welcome.

The procedure is similar to this:

Or another project like:
