# Embedded data extraction tool

						|
Gitea's executable contains all the resources required to run: templates, images, style-sheets
 | 
						|
and translations. Any of them can be overridden by placing a replacement in a matching path
 | 
						|
inside the `custom` directory (see [Customizing Gitea]({{< relref "doc/administration/customizing-gitea.en-us.md" >}})).
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
To obtain a copy of the embedded resources ready for editing, the `embedded` command from the CLI
 | 
						|
can be used from the OS shell interface.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
**NOTE:** The embedded data extraction tool is included in Gitea versions 1.12 and above.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
## Listing resources
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
To list resources embedded in Gitea's executable, use the following syntax:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
```sh
 | 
						|
gitea embedded list [--include-vendored] [patterns...]
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
The `--include-vendored` flag makes the command include vendored files, which are
 | 
						|
normally excluded; that is, files from external libraries that are required for Gitea
 | 
						|
(e.g. [octicons](https://octicons.github.com/), etc).
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
A list of file search patterns can be provided. Gitea uses [gobwas/glob](https://github.com/gobwas/glob)
 | 
						|
for its glob syntax. Here are some examples:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
- List all template files, in any virtual directory: `**.tmpl`
 | 
						|
- List all mail template files: `templates/mail/**.tmpl`
 | 
						|
- List all files inside `public/img`: `public/img/**`
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Don't forget to use quotes for the patterns, as spaces, `*` and other characters might have
 | 
						|
a special meaning for your command shell.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
If no pattern is provided, all files are listed.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
### Example
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Listing all embedded files with `openid` in their path:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
```sh
 | 
						|
$ gitea embedded list '**openid**'
 | 
						|
public/img/auth/openid_connect.svg
 | 
						|
public/img/openid-16x16.png
 | 
						|
templates/user/auth/finalize_openid.tmpl
 | 
						|
templates/user/auth/signin_openid.tmpl
 | 
						|
templates/user/auth/signup_openid_connect.tmpl
 | 
						|
templates/user/auth/signup_openid_navbar.tmpl
 | 
						|
templates/user/auth/signup_openid_register.tmpl
 | 
						|
templates/user/settings/security_openid.tmpl
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
## Extracting resources
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
To extract resources embedded in Gitea's executable, use the following syntax:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
```sh
 | 
						|
gitea [--config {file}] embedded extract [--destination {dir}|--custom] [--overwrite|--rename] [--include-vendored] {patterns...}
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
The `--config` option tells Gitea the location of the `app.ini` configuration file if
 | 
						|
it's not in its default location. This option is only used with the `--custom` flag.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
The `--destination` option tells Gitea the directory where the files must be extracted to.
 | 
						|
The default is the current directory.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
The `--custom` flag tells Gitea to extract the files directly into the `custom` directory.
 | 
						|
For this to work, the command needs to know the location of the `app.ini` configuration
 | 
						|
file (`--config`) and, depending of the configuration, be ran from the directory where
 | 
						|
Gitea normally starts. See [Customizing Gitea]({{< relref "doc/administration/customizing-gitea.en-us.md" >}}) for details.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
The `--overwrite` flag allows any existing files in the destination directory to be overwritten.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
The `--rename` flag tells Gitea to rename any existing files in the destination directory
 | 
						|
as `filename.bak`. Previous `.bak` files are overwritten.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
At least one file search pattern must be provided; see `list` subcomand above for pattern
 | 
						|
syntax and examples.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
### Important notice
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Make sure to **only extract those files that require customization**. Files that
 | 
						|
are present in the `custom` directory are not upgraded by Gitea's upgrade process.
 | 
						|
When Gitea is upgraded to a new version (by replacing the executable), many of the
 | 
						|
embedded files will suffer changes. Gitea will honor and use any files found
 | 
						|
in the `custom` directory, even if they are old and incompatible.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
### Example
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Extracting mail templates to a temporary directory:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
```sh
 | 
						|
$ mkdir tempdir
 | 
						|
$ gitea embedded extract --destination tempdir 'templates/mail/**.tmpl'
 | 
						|
Extracting to tempdir:
 | 
						|
tempdir/templates/mail/auth/activate.tmpl
 | 
						|
tempdir/templates/mail/auth/activate_email.tmpl
 | 
						|
tempdir/templates/mail/auth/register_notify.tmpl
 | 
						|
tempdir/templates/mail/auth/reset_passwd.tmpl
 | 
						|
tempdir/templates/mail/issue/assigned.tmpl
 | 
						|
tempdir/templates/mail/issue/default.tmpl
 | 
						|
tempdir/templates/mail/notify/collaborator.tmpl
 | 
						|
```
