Access to my DeviceId dynamically

[Ilheu]

I would like to get my iot edge deviceId, without writing it in my code, is it possible ?
My module is in node.js

You have access to that via enviroment variables which are being passed into your module:
IOTEDGE_DEVICEID
IOTEDGE_MODULEID

(you can do a docker inspect on your module to see what is all there)

Thank you! I did the docker inspect and found it !
Can you show me how to access these variables in node.js ?

Hi @Ilheu you should be unblocked with the use of these environment variables. I'm going to close this issue for now, but feel free to reopen if you have other questions.
