<p>I'm trying to learn this too. I could not find any further documentation other than the <code>cardano-cli</code> command help. This is pretty extensive and useful. Every command argument seems to have built-in help. So, for instance, to get help with building a transaction, issue the command <code>cardano-cli transaction build</code>. The help for this includes some info on the <code>--tx-out-datum-embed-file FILE</code> arguments.</p>

This is a cop-out answer, but in my experience there surest place to go for answers is to read the source code directly.

I'm trying to learn this too. I could not find any further documentation other than the `cardano-cli` command help. This is pretty extensive and useful. Every command argument seems to have built-in help. So, for instance, to get help with building a transaction, issue the command `cardano-cli transaction build`. The help for this includes some info on the `--tx-out-datum-embed-file FILE` arguments.
