Wording and documentation still need to be updated, but will do so in a follow-up. Also removing the default "10 seconds" from the timeout flags, as this default is not actually used, and may not match the actual default (which is defined on the daemon side).

# stop
|
|
|
|
```markdown
|
|
Usage: docker stop [OPTIONS] CONTAINER [CONTAINER...]
|
|
|
|
Stop one or more running containers
|
|
|
|
Options:
|
|
-s, --signal string Signal to send to the container
|
|
-t, --time int Seconds to wait before killing the container
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Description
|
|
|
|
The main process inside the container will receive `SIGTERM`, and after a grace
|
|
period, `SIGKILL`. The first signal can be changed with the `STOPSIGNAL`
|
|
instruction in the container's Dockerfile, or the `--stop-signal` option to
|
|
`docker run`.
|
|
|
|
## Examples
|
|
|
|
```console
|
|
$ docker stop my_container
|
|
```
