I am using R/Bioconductor by invoking
docker run -p 8787:8787 bioconductor/devel_base
and then I point my browser to
http://localhost:8787
to access RStudio.
What is the best way to terminate (quit, finish, exit) the running docker/bioconductor/rstudio process? Just Ctrl-C?
I think control-C will work.
You can also (in another window) run docker ps and it will tell you the name of the container that's running and then you can do
docker stop container_name
Also, next time you can specify the container name when you start docker with the --name option, then you won't have to look up the name.

Yes, Ctrl-C does certainly work, this is how I currently terminate the process(es). I was wondering whether this is the recommende/proper way to do it, or if Ctrl-C has any downsides.
It is fine to do it. It does leave a container lying around (as you can see with
docker ps -abut that's ok. You can avoid this in future by adding--rmto yourdocker runcommand.
