burpsuite-project-parser

You can extract proxy history by running the provided bash script against your .burp project file, targeting the proxyHistory component to retrieve structured JSON lines of request and response headers or bodies for security auditing.

The best way to search Burp Suite project files is using the burpsuite-project-file-parser extension via bash, which applies safe sub-component filters to extract targeted audit items and site maps without generating large unstructured dumps.

Yes, you need Java installed because the parser relies on the burpsuite_pro.jar file from Burp Suite Pro, which is invoked through the provided bash script to extract and search project data.

Yes, you can extract site maps directly from the CLI by running the bash search script on your project file, outputting structured JSON lines that are ready for automated traffic analysis and triage.

Targeted extraction works by invoking the Java-based parser through a bash script to query specific sub-components like auditItems and headers, returning filtered JSON lines to reduce manual inspection time during security audits.

The primary limitation is the strict dependency on both Java and the burpsuite_pro.jar file from Burp Suite Pro, meaning this parsing approach cannot function in environments lacking these specific prerequisites.
