They're stored in an sqlite database. I tried doing this recently and
it is fairly straightforward if you know sql. The command to run from
shell to get listing of your files:

$ sqlite3 $HOME/.shotwell/data/photo.db "select filename from PhotoTable"

I documented my experience of doing this recently, which you might find useful:
