Stopping child (GenServer) in DynamicSupervisor gracefully without restarting it

Questions / Help

Hey, I’m using the Module child spec.

   DynamicSupervisor.start_child(
    Service.ServiceSupervisor,
    {Service.Manager, [id: id, opts: opts]}
  )

I think it’s the restart: option. now I see in the docs

:transient - the child process is restarted only if it terminates abnormally, i.e., with an exit reason other than :normal , :shutdown , or {:shutdown, term} .

This seems to be what I was looking for, thanks for the hint with restart: option!
