==== Dockerfile Filetype =====

=== NOTE :   ===

**Please use the combined [[config:docker-compose]]** \\
Dockerfiles and docker-compose filetypes are now merged into one filetype. Therefore this filetype for only Dockerfiles files will not be kept updated. \\
Go to the filetype [[config:docker-compose]] instead.   

----


**Dockerfile**  is a file format used to build [[http://www.docker.com|Docker]] images.\\

[[http://www.docker.com|Docker]] is a computer program that performs operating-system-level virtualization, also known as "containerization"

This page describe how to add basic Dockerfile syntax highlighting on Geany. 

Add the following lines to //~/.config/geany/filetype_extensions.conf// under the respective sections [Extensions] and [Groups]
<file properties>
[Extensions]
Dockerfile=Dockerfile;dockerfile;*.dockerfile;*.Dockerfile;
[Groups]
Script=Dockerfile;
</file>

Save the configuration file below in your Geany filetype definition files config directory, e.g. //~/.config/geany/filedefs/filetypes.Dockerfile.conf//


<file properties filetypes.Dockerfile.conf>
