What's the Difference Between "docker stop" and "docker kill" Commands?

The docker stop and docker kill commands have the following differences:

1. docker stop attempts to gracefully shutdown container(s) while docker kill (by default) immediately stops/terminates them;
2. docker stop issues a SIGTERM signal to the main process inside the container, while docker kill (by default) issues a SIGKILL signal;
3. With docker kill, you may specify to send a different signal (to the main process inside the container) than the default SIGKILL signal, using the --signal flag. Same thing is not possible with the docker stop command;
4. With docker stop, the container(s) must comply to the shutdown request within a (configurable) grace period (which defaults to 10 seconds), after which it forcibly tries to kill the container. docker kill does not have any such timeout period.
