Shorter version of the above path:
%APPDATA%\Notepad++\userDefineLang_Dockerfile.xml
after copying to the location mentioned (C:\Users[user]\AppData\Roaming\Notepad++\userDefineLang.xml), and restarting notepad++, I don't see the language Dockerfile in the D section. any ideas?
User defined Languages are not sorted into subcategories but appended at the bottom. You should see Dockerfile in Language. Look at the last few entries in Language.
I also had to manually import the file afterwards, by selecting Language | Define your language... and then clicking Import and choosing the userDefineLang_Dockerfile.xml file. After restarting Notepad++ it showed up at the bottom of the Language menu.
It would be nice if this feature could be simplified to just putting the XML file in the directory and have it pick it up automatically :)
Shouldn't SHELL be a keyword as well?
Thanks for the note, I have now added a few more keywords that were missing.
After importing the file in npp I had to restart it. Then Dockerfile was available from the Language dropdown menu.
This sucks if you have a dark theme (white background for all lines of text)
C:\Users\[user]\AppData\Roaming\Notepad++\userDefineLang.xml is wrong if using Notepad++ V7.7.1
C:\Users\[user]\AppData\Roaming\Notepad++\userDefineLangs\userDefineLang_Dockerfile.xml is working.

It does, but it is a great sample!

I like your idea but based on the recommendations here (notepad-plus-plus/notepad-plus-plus#2662) I gave it another crack at being more theme friendly. I ran through the default themes and it works reasonably well for most of them. The light gray for comments isn't amazing in some, particularly the hellokitty theme, but who uses those themes anyways? ;)

</NotepadPlus>FWIW, I made the following changes:
- Edited the colors to more closely match other Notepad++ built-in languages (like bash)
- Added 2nd and 3rd Keyword Lists for variables and known double-hyphen options
- Changed comments to be forced to beginning of line
- Added Escape to Delimiter 1
- Added single quote to Delimiter 1
- Added Operators 1 and allowed Keywords 2 to nest in Delimiter 1

</NotepadPlus>This sucks if you have a dark theme (white background for all lines of text)
Another solution: Notepad++ syntax highlighting for Dockerfiles (Dark version)
Does someone know how to make Notepad++ automatically assign this theme to all files labelled Dockerfile? I have to manually select Language > Dockerfile each time I open a file, the highlighting is not applied automatically.
Does someone know how to make Notepad++ automatically assign this theme to all files labelled
Dockerfile? I have to manually select Language > Dockerfile each time I open a file, the highlighting is not applied automatically.
I know this is old, but as the question was never answered I'll answer it for future searchers like myself who come across it
Notepad++ uses extensions to automatically determine what Language to use, as Dockerfile has no extension, to my knowledge, it's beyond the scope of Notepad++ to be able to recognize it
- Changed comments to be forced to beginning of line
I'm curious as to why this was done? As it is now comments are only colored correctly if they follow a new line & start at position 0... Which is in no way required in Dockerfile... Maybe it was at the time, I'm not sure, I just know it currently isn't because they often are between things in the Dockerfiles I've worked with with no opening space & are sometimes indented. I'm not sure if they can be used at the end of a line like in YAML, as I haven't seen that so far. Is that the intent?

@LostOnTheLine and any that follow on to reading this!
There is a Python Script plugin for Notepad++ and a plugin for that available as Mode Line which can do any, or all, of:
- Set the language based on any python fnmatch rule(s) that you set, e.g.
fnmatch.fnmatch('dockerfile*'). If you add the script to your Notepad++ python scripts start-up entry then this will work for any matching filename, not just extension, without needing to change any of the files. - Set the language, (built-in or custom), to use based on a shebang, e.g.
#! /usr/bin/env dockeror#! /usr/bin/env podman, on the first line of each file. It is not a bad practice to have a shebang in each of your files anyway. - Set the language &/or other settings based on Vim modeline entries in the file. Only really works if you are also using vim!
If you install the Python script plug-in, then follow the steps for installing the Mode Line plugin, set it to run on start-up as described and then edit either, or both, of the sections of %appdata%\Local\Notepad++\plugins\PythonScript\lib\ModelineLanguageDetectors.py for file name based or shebang detection then restart Notepad++ it works very nicely.
I would like to add my thanks to Dominik @centic9 for the original language file, Francois Francois-R.Boyer@PolyMtl.ca for the Mode Line plugin, Dave @davegb3 for the Python Script Plugin and Don Ho @donho for Notepad++ all of the nearly 400 other contributors to Notepad++ and the Python community for all of their hard work and for their generosity in sharing their efforts with us all.
