Docker kill
docker kill kills one or more running Docker containers by names or IDs.
The basic usage is:
docker kill mycontainer
Or with container ID:
docker kill 769b9341d937
To kill more than one container, container names or IDs must be added with a whitespace character between them:
docker kill mycontainer mysecondcontainer mythirdcontainer
You can specify which signal is emitted to the container using the --signal (or -s) option. For example, you can reload your nginx container configuration using:
docker kill -s HUP container_name
