Context :
follwing a project-name change -> renaming the directory-name/docker-compose.yml the processes that were started by docker-compose were duplicated.
From the new project :
* impossible to see them.
From docker ps : no process listed
From OS perspective ps aux : process present.
Test 1 : kill them all !
Step 1 : identify them
ps aux | grep $(echo "$(grep container_name docker-compose.yml | grep -v '#' | awk '{printf("%s\\|", $2)}')grep")
Step 2 : kill -9 them all
ps aux | grep $(echo "$(grep container_name docker-compose.yml | grep -v '#' | awk '{printf("%s\\|", $2)}')grep") | awk '{print $2}' | xargs sudo kill -9
-> result : when restarting docker, they're back :-(
