How can I access Firefox's internal indexed files using Python?

Question

I need to read firefox indexeddb using python.

I use the package slite3to retrieve the contents of indexeddb:

with sqlite3.connect(indexeddb_file) as conn:
    c = conn.cursor()
    c.execute('select * from object_data;')
    rows = c.fetchall()
    for row in rows:
        print row[2]

However, although I know that the contents in the database are strings, they are stored as sqlite binary blobs . Is there a way to read strings stored as blobs from python?

I tried:

• hex () and quote () sql methods just encode blob to hex
• same problem when i write blob to file
