 # Dockerfile+
 
-This project provides Dockerfile syntax extensions that have been rejected by the moby project or haven't been addressed in a long time.
-
-Currently, the project adds an `INCLUDE+` Dockerfile directive that allows you to import the content of another file into your Dockerfile. There are plans to add more features in the near future.

-Right now there is just one extra instruction: `INCLUDE+`. All Dockerfile+ commands will end up with a `+` sign to avoid any potential future collisions with Dockerfile commands.
+### INCLUDE+
 
 `INCLUDE+` will import the verbatim contents of another file into your Dockerfile. Here's an example Dockerfile which uses the `INCLUDE+` instruction:

+### ENVFILE+
+
+docker-compose has had support for envfiles for a while now, but Dockerfile hasn't. The `ENVFILE+` instruction brings that support to Dockerfile! If you `ENVFILE+` a .env file, each line will be treated as an `ENV` definition. Here's an example:
+
+```Dockerfile
+# syntax = edrevo/dockerfile-plus
+
+FROM alpine
+
+ENVFILE+ prod.env
+
+ENTRYPOINT [ "mybin" ]
+```
+
+If prod.env has the following:
+
+```env
+FOO=Hello
+BAR=World
+```
+
+The resulting Docker image would be equivalent to the one generated by this standard Dockerfile:
+
+```Dockerfile
+# syntax = edrevo/dockerfile-plus
+
+FROM alpine
+
+ENV FOO=Hello
+
+ENV BAR=World
+
+ENTRYPOINT [ "mybin" ]
+```
+
 ## Roadmap
 
 The next features in line would be:
 
-- `ENVFILE+` command, which would read a .env file and import all of those environment variable definitions into the Dockerfile
 - `RUN+ --no-cache`, which would disable the cache only for a specific RUN step (useful for non-idempotent commands, for example those that clone git repos)
 - `TAG` command
 - improvements to .dockerignore, like recursive dockerignore files
