A smarter Dockerfile linter that helps you build [best practice][] Docker
images. The linter parses the Dockerfile into an AST and performs rules on
top of the AST. It stands on the shoulders of [ShellCheck][] to lint
the Bash code inside `RUN` instructions.

## How to use

You can run `hadolint` locally to lint your Dockerfile.

```bash
hadolint
hadolint --ignore DL3003 --ignore DL3006 # exclude specific rules
hadolint --trusted-registry my-company.com:500 # Warn when using untrusted FROM images
```

Docker comes to the rescue, providing an easy way how to run `hadolint` on most
platforms.
Just pipe your `Dockerfile` to `docker run`:

```bash
docker run --rm -i hadolint/hadolint < Dockerfile
# OR
docker run --rm -i ghcr.io/hadolint/hadolint < Dockerfile
```

or using [Podman](https://podman.io/):

```bash
podman run --rm -i docker.io/hadolint/hadolint < Dockerfile
# OR
podman run --rm -i ghcr.io/hadolint/hadolint < Dockerfile
```

or using Windows PowerShell:

```powershell
cat .\Dockerfile | docker run --rm -i hadolint/hadolint
```

## Install

You can download prebuilt binaries for OSX, Windows and Linux from the latest
[release page][]. However, if this does not work for you, please fall back to
container (Docker), `brew` or source installation.

On OSX, you can use [brew](https://brew.sh/) to install `hadolint`.

```bash
brew install hadolint
```

On Windows, you can use [scoop](https://github.com/lukesampson/scoop) to
install `hadolint`.

```batch
scoop install hadolint
```

On distributions that have `nix` installed, you can use the `hadolint`
package to run ad-hoc shells or permanently install `hadolint` into
your environment.

As mentioned earlier, `hadolint` is available as a container image:

```bash
docker pull hadolint/hadolint
# OR
docker pull ghcr.io/hadolint/hadolint
```

If you need a container with shell access, use the Debian or Alpine
variants:

```bash
docker pull hadolint/hadolint:latest-debian
# OR
docker pull hadolint/hadolint:latest-alpine
# OR
docker pull ghcr.io/hadolint/hadolint:latest-debian
# OR
docker pull ghcr.io/hadolint/hadolint:latest-alpine
```

You can also build `hadolint` locally. You need [Haskell][] and the [cabal][]
build tool to build the binary.

```bash
git clone https://github.com/hadolint/hadolint \
&& cd hadolint \
&& cabal configure \
&& cabal build \
&& cabal install
```

If you want the
[VS Code Hadolint](https://github.com/michaellzc/vscode-hadolint)
extension to use Hadolint in a container, you can use the following
[wrapper script](https://github.com/hadolint/hadolint/issues/691#issuecomment-932116329):

```bash
#!/bin/bash
dockerfile="$1"
shift
docker run --rm -i hadolint/hadolint hadolint "$@" - < "$dockerfile"
```

## CLI

```bash
hadolint --help
```

--error RULECODE Make the rule `RULECODE` have the level `error`
--warning RULECODE Make the rule `RULECODE` have the level `warning`
--info RULECODE Make the rule `RULECODE` have the level `info`
--style RULECODE Make the rule `RULECODE` have the level `style`
--ignore RULECODE A rule to ignore. If present, the ignore list in the
config file is ignored
--trusted-registry REGISTRY (e.g. docker.io)
A docker registry to allow to appear in FROM
instructions
--require-label LABELSCHEMA (e.g. maintainer:text)
The option --require-label=label:format makes
Hadolint check that the label `label` conforms to

severity equal to or above THRESHOLD are violated.
Accepted values: [error | warning | info | style |
ignore | none] (default: info)
```

## Configure

Configuration files can be used globally or per project.
Hadolint looks for configuration files in the following locations or their
platform specific equivalents in this order and uses the first one exclusively:
- `$PWD/.hadolint.yaml`
- `$XDG_CONFIG_HOME/hadolint.yaml`
- `$HOME/.config/hadolint.yaml`
- `$HOME/.hadolint/hadolint.yaml or $HOME/hadolint/config.yaml`
- `$HOME/.hadolint.yaml`

In windows, the `%LOCALAPPDATA%` environment variable is used instead of
`XDG_CONFIG_HOME`. Config files can have either `yaml` or `yml` extensions.

`hadolint` full `yaml` config file schema

```yaml
failure-threshold: string # name of threshold level (error | warning | info | style | ignore | none)
format: string # Output format (tty | json | checkstyle | codeclimate | gitlab_codeclimate | gnu | codacy)
ignored: [string] # list of rules
label-schema: # See Linting Labels below for specific label-schema details
author: string # Your name
contact: string # email address
created: timestamp # rfc3339 datetime
version: string # semver
documentation: string # url
git-revision: string # hash
license: string # spdx
no-color: boolean # true | false
no-fail: boolean # true | false
override:
error: [string] # list of rules
warning: [string] # list of rules
info: [string] # list of rules
style: [string] # list of rules
strict-labels: boolean # true | false
disable-ignore-pragma: boolean # true | false
trustedRegistries: string | [string] # registry or list of registries
```

`hadolint` supports specifying the ignored rules using a configuration
file. The configuration file should be in `yaml` format. This is one
valid configuration file as an example:

```yaml
ignored:
- DL3000
- SC1010
```

Additionally, `hadolint` can warn you when images from untrusted
repositories are being used in Dockerfiles, you can append the
`trustedRegistries` keys to the configuration file, as shown below:

```yaml
ignored:
- DL3000
- SC1010

trustedRegistries:
- docker.io
- my-company.com:5000
- "*.gcr.io"
```

If you want to override the severity of specific rules, you can do that too:

```yaml
override:
error:
- DL3001
- DL3002
warning:
- DL3042
- DL3033
info:
- DL3032
style:
- DL3015
```

`failure-threshold` Exit with failure code only when rules with a
severity above THRESHOLD are violated (Available in v2.6.0+)

```yaml
failure-threshold: info
override:
warning:
- DL3042
- DL3033
info:
- DL3032
```

Additionally, you can pass a custom configuration file in the command line with
the `--config` option

```bash
hadolint --config /path/to/config.yaml Dockerfile
```

To pass a custom configuration file (using relative or absolute path) to
a container, use the following command:

```bash
docker run --rm -i -v /your/path/to/hadolint.yaml:/.config/hadolint.yaml hadolint/hadolint < Dockerfile
# OR
docker run --rm -i -v /your/path/to/hadolint.yaml:/.config/hadolint.yaml ghcr.io/hadolint/hadolint < Dockerfile
```

In addition to config files, Hadolint can be configured with environment
variables.
```bash
NO_COLOR=1 # Set or unset. See https://no-color.org
HADOLINT_NOFAIL=1 # Truthy value e.g. 1, true or yes
HADOLINT_VERBOSE=1 # Truthy value e.g. 1, true or yes
HADOLINT_FORMAT=json # Output format (tty | json | checkstyle | codeclimate | gitlab_codeclimate | gnu | codacy | sarif )
HADOLINT_FAILURE_THRESHOLD=info # threshold level (error | warning | info | style | ignore | none)
HADOLINT_OVERRIDE_ERROR=DL3010,DL3020 # comma separated list of rule codes
HADOLINT_OVERRIDE_WARNING=DL3010,DL3020 # comma separated list of rule codes
HADOLINT_OVERRIDE_INFO=DL3010,DL3020 # comma separated list of rule codes
HADOLINT_OVERRIDE_STYLE=DL3010,DL3020 # comma separated list of rule codes
HADOLINT_IGNORE=DL3010,DL3020 # comma separated list of rule codes
HADOLINT_STRICT_LABELS=1 # Truthy value e.g. 1, true or yes
HADOLINT_DISABLE_IGNORE_PRAGMA=1 # Truthy value e.g. 1, true or yes
HADOLINT_TRUSTED_REGISTRIES=docker.io # comma separated list of registry urls
HADOLINT_REQUIRE_LABELS=maintainer:text # comma separated list of label schema items
```

## Non-Posix Shells

When using base images with non-posix shells as default (e.g. Windows based
images) a special pragma `hadolint shell` can specify which shell the base image
uses, so that Hadolint can automatically ignore all shell-specific rules.

```Dockerfile
FROM mcr.microsoft.com/windows/servercore:ltsc2022
# hadolint shell=powershell
RUN Get-Process notepad | Stop-Process
```

## Ignoring Rules

### Inline ignores

It is also possible to ignore rules by adding a special comment directly
above the Dockerfile statement for which you want to make an exception for.
Such comments look like
`# hadolint ignore=DL3001,SC1081`. For example:

```dockerfile
# hadolint ignore=DL3006
FROM ubuntu

# hadolint ignore=DL3003,SC1035
RUN cd /tmp && echo "hello!"
```

The comment "inline ignores" applies only to the statement following it.

### Global ignores

Rules can also be ignored on a per-file basis using the global ignore pragma.
It works just like inline ignores, except that it applies to the whole file
instead of just the next line.

```dockerfile
# hadolint global ignore=DL3003,DL3006,SC1035
FROM ubuntu

RUN cd /tmp && echo "foo"
```

## Linting Labels

Hadolint is able to check if specific labels are present and conform
to a predefined label schema.
First, a label schema must be defined either via the command line:

```bash
hadolint --require-label author:text --require-label version:semver Dockerfile
```

or via the config file:

```yaml
label-schema:
author: text
contact: email
created: rfc3339
version: semver
documentation: url
git-revision: hash
license: spdx
```

The value of a label can be either of `text`, `url`, `semver`, `hash` or
`rfc3339`:
| Schema | Description |
|:--------|:---------------------------------------------------|
| text | Anything |
| rfc3339 | A time, formatted according to [RFC 3339][rfc3339] |
| semver | A [semantic version][semver] |
| url | A URI as described in [RFC 3986][rfc3986] |
| hash | Either a short or a long [Git hash][githash] |
| spdx | An [SPDX license identifier][spdxid] |
| email | An email address conforming to [RFC 5322][rfc5322] |

By default, Hadolint ignores any label that is not specified in the label schema. To
warn against such additional labels, turn on strict labels, using the command line:

```bash
hadolint --strict-labels --require-label version:semver Dockerfile
```

or the config file:

```yaml
strict-labels: true
```

When strict labels is enabled, but no label schema is specified, `hadolint`
will warn if any label is present.

### Note on dealing with variables in labels

It is a common pattern to fill the value of a label not statically, but rather
dynamically at build time by using a variable:

```dockerfile
FROM debian:buster
ARG VERSION="du-jour"
LABEL version="${VERSION}"
```

To allow this, the label schema must specify `text` as value for that label:

```yaml
label-schema:
version: text
```

## Integrations

To get most of `hadolint`, it is useful to integrate it as a check in your CI
or into your editor, or as a pre-commit hook, to lint your `Dockerfile` as you
write it. See our [Integration][] docs.

## Rules

An incomplete list of implemented rules. Click on the error code to get more
detailed information.

- Rules with the prefix `DL` are from `hadolint`. Have a look at
`Rules.hs` to find the implementation of the rules.

- Rules with the `SC` prefix are from **ShellCheck** (only the most
common rules are listed, there are dozens more).

Please [create an issue][] if you have an idea for a good rule.

## Develop

If you are an experienced Haskeller, we would be very grateful if you would
tear our code apart in a review.

To compile, you will need a recent Haskell environment and `cabal-install`.

### Setup

1. Clone repository

```bash
git clone --recursive [email protected]:hadolint/hadolint.git
```

1. Install dependencies and compile source

```bash
cabal configure
cabal build
```

1. (Optional) Install Hadolint on your system

```bash
cabal install
```

### REPL

The easiest way to try out the parser is using the REPL.

```bash
# start the repl
cabal repl
# overload strings to be able to use Text
:set -XOverloadedStrings
# import parser library
import Language.Docker
# parse instruction and look at AST representation
parseText "FROM debian:jessie"
```

### Tests

Compile with unit tests and run them:

```bash
cabal configure --enable-tests
cabal build --enable-tests
cabal test
```

Run integration tests:

```bash
./integration_test.sh
```

### AST

Dockerfile syntax is fully described in the [Dockerfile reference][].
Just take a look at [Syntax.hs][] in the `language-docker` project to see
the AST definition.

### Building against custom libraries

Hadolint uses many libraries to do the dirty work. In particular,
language-docker is used to parse Dockerfiles and produce an AST which then can
be analyzed. To build Hadolint against a custom version of such libraries, do
the following. This example uses language-docker, but it would work with any
other library as well.

1) In the same directory (e.g. `/home/user/repos`) clone Hadolint and
language-docker git repositories

```bash
cd /home/user/repos
git clone https://github.com/hadolint/hadolint.git
git clone https://github.com/hadolint/language-docker.git
```

2) Make your modifications to language-docker

3) In the Hadolint repo, edit the `cabal.project` file, such that the
`packages` property points to the other repo too

```yaml
[...]
packages:
.
../language-docker
[...]
```

4) Recompile Hadolint and run the tests
```bash
cd /home/user/repos/hadolint
cabal configure --enable-tests
cabal build --enable-tests
cabal test
```
