# pass file

`pass file` is a extension for adding arbitary files to the [pass](https://www.passwordstore.org/) password store. Files will be encoded using `base64` before encryption. This extension is inspired by [gopass](https://github.com/justwatchcom/gopass)' `binary` function to which it is also compatible. Files stored with `gopass binary` can be retrieved with `pass file` and vice versa.

## Usage

```

Usage: pass file action pass-name [path]

Actions:

  store|add|attach: add new file to password store

  retrieve|show|cat: retrieve file from password store and print it to stdout

  edit|vi: edit a file (warning: unencrypted file will be opened with $EDITOR)

```

## Examples

Storing a PNG picture and retrieving it.

```

pass file store pics/secretpic mypicture.png

pass file retrieve pics/secretpic > retrieved-picture.png

```

Alternativley you can also use shortcuts for `attach` and `retrieve`:

```

pass file add article my_super_secret_revelations.txt

pass file cat article

```

Use `edit` to edit a file:

```

pass file edit article

```

## Installation

See [here](https://www.passwordstore.org/#extensions) for details. There is also information on how to install extensions in the `pass` man page.
