respect settings in .dockerignore

[computerlyrik]

I have a Dockerfile inside my project root.

The assembly within the maven plugin is configured

                                <assembly>
                            <dockerFileDir>${project.basedir}</dockerFileDir>
                                </assembly>

How do i prevent the system from including the ./target folder recursively on building?

A .dockerignore file like

target/

Does not help.

You are right, .dockerignore is a feature of the docker CLI command (which is not used by this plugin).

I just added support for a .maven-dockerignore file which can hold Ant style patterns for excluding files.

For advanced cases a %regex[...] as described here should do it, too. But that's neither tested nor documented ;-)

'hope that fits your use case.

Where should i put .maven-dockerignore?

[mteodori]

why not just using the standard .dockerignore and invent another file doing the same?

[rhuss]

Because it uses different syntax and has different caps.

Thank you for the clear explanation, I would have preferred maven configuration properties in this case
