Vscode-material-icon-theme: [QUESTION] File associations with Dockerfiles

[lawrence-c]

Sorry if this has been answered before, but I couldn't find anything so far..

I'm just getting started with using Dockerfiles, and naming conventions to use for multiple Dockerfiles in a directory, and I've started naming them Dockerfile.db or Dockerfile.web etc.

I've changed the file associations in my user settings in vscode:

"files.associations": {
        "Dockerfile*": "dockerfile"
    },

However, I'm unsure how to change the material-icon-theme.files.associations to get the Docker icon for the new file format, as I'm not using the *.[extension] pattern as specified in the documentation, but rather a [Dockerfile].* format.

Ideally something like this would work?

"material-icon-theme.files.associations": {
        "Dockerfile.*": "dockerfile"
    },

Thanks in advance!

Unfortunately, this is currently not possible by the VS Code Extension API. I hope that it will be implemented sometime, for icon themes it's a much needed feature.

I will continue to capture the topic in this issue https://github.com/PKief/vscode-material-icon-theme/issues/198.

Thank you for requesting this feature 👍
