Get tt_content uid

When a plugin (my extension) is inserted in a page, is there a way to know the content’s UID inside an action from controller?

Something like.

class Tx_myextension_Controller_GalleryController extends Tx_Extbase_MVC_Controller_ActionController {
   public function showImageAction() {
      $this->initializeAction();
      $UID=some_method_to_get_the_tt_content_uid;
      $this->view->assign("var1", "Content UID: $UID");
   }
}

I don’t have any clue where to continue searching as I ran out of ideas 🙁

Use this trick to find all tt_content's properties:

$this->contentObj = $this->configurationManager->getContentObject();
debug($this->contentObj->data, "current tt_content's data");

That’s an array so your solutions is:

$UID = $this->contentObj->data['uid'];
