dockerfilelint is an opinionated Node.js linter that analyzes Dockerfiles for common mistakes and enforces best practices. It runs as a CLI, an npm module, or a Docker container, with configurable rules and JSON or CLI output.

Use cases

• lint dockerfiles for best practices
• find common mistakes in dockerfile
• validate dockerfile before building images
• check dockerfile for latest tag usage
• enforce dockerfile rules in ci
• lint dockerfile contents from stdin

When to choose

• you want an opinionated, ready-made set of Dockerfile checks without configuration
• you need a CLI or Docker-based linter that integrates easily into CI pipelines
• you want JSON output for programmatic consumption of lint results

When to avoid

• you need to add custom rules beyond disabling the built-in ones
• you want a linter with active development and recent updates
• you need multi-language or broader container security scanning rather than Dockerfile-only checks
