Sebastiaan van Stijn 47ba76afb1 docs: use "console" code-hint for shell examples 
This replaces the use of bash where suitable, to allow easier copy/pasting
of shell examples without copying the prompt or process output.

wait The wait command description and usage container, stop, wait

wait

Usage:  docker wait CONTAINER [CONTAINER...]

Block until one or more containers stop, then print their exit codes

Options:
      --help        Print usage

Note

docker wait returns 0 when run against a container which had already exited before the docker wait command was run.

Examples

Start a container in the background.

$ docker run -dit --name=my_container ubuntu bash

Run docker wait, which should block until the container exits.

$ docker wait my_container

In another terminal, stop the first container. The docker wait command above returns the exit code.

$ docker stop my_container

This is the same docker wait command from above, but it now exits, returning 0.

$ docker wait my_container
