# protod
[](http://godoc.org/github.com/dennwc/protod)
Sometimes it is necessary to recover `.proto` files from binaries or memory dumps.
`protod` does exactly this - it finds protobuf descriptors in any binary files and writes them back as `.proto` text files.
**Supports:**
- `proto2` and `proto3`
- `message`s, `enum`s, `service`s
- Extraction from uncompressed file descriptors (used in C/C++, maybe others)
**Not supported yet:**
- Field or file options
- Oneof fields
- Extensions
- Compressed file descriptors (used in Go)
- Recovery without file descriptors
## Installation
Go **1.12+** is required.
```
go get -u github.com/dennwc/protod
go install github.com/dennwc/protod/cmd/protod
```
## Usage
```
protod --out=./out some_binary
```
The tool will emit recovered `.proto` files to `./out` directory.
