[Question] Is there something like dockerignore.io ?

Issue

Hi, I would like to ask if there is something like gitignore.io for .dockerignore.

I am a bit confused as I do not think .gitignore and .dockerignore are same. Let's say I have a Dockerfile. It might be included in .dockerignore but not in .gitignore.

Any suggestion is appreciated !

Development Environment:

• Machine (Local, Container, Virtual):
• Operating System (Name/Version):
• Web Browser (Name/Version):
• Vapor Version:
• Swift Version:

Hello @kevinadhiguna! Yes, you're correct. .gitignore and .dockerignore are not the same.

.dockerignore describes what won't be included into docker context. So, basically, stuff you don't need to build a container, which depends on your project's need.

I see. Thank you @deniskaber !

Official .dockerignore docs: https://docs.docker.com/engine/reference/builder/#dockerignore-file

After having a quick search:

• https://github.com/garygitton/dockerignore
• https://github.com/erdaltsksn-old/dockerignore

Not sure there is such a service for .dockerignore, but you could also search Github for example usage
