    20  ## Description
    21  
    22  The main process inside the container will receive `SIGTERM`, and after a grace
    23  period, `SIGKILL`. The first signal can be changed with the `STOPSIGNAL`
    24  instruction in the container's Dockerfile, or the `--stop-signal` option to
    25  `docker run`.
    26  
    27  ## Examples

    29  ```console
    30  $ docker stop my_container
    31  ```
