Get DOM id attribute from current element

Hey there! How do I get the id attribute of the current element in an inline function, similar to how it's possible in basic HTML? This code snippet works in basic HTML:

<button id="hi" onclick="console.log(this.id)">Click me</button>

<button id="hi" onclick="console.log(this.id)">Click me</button>

How would I achieve this with tsx in SolidJS?

<button
  onClick={() => {
    console.log(this.id); //this doesn't work because "self" is not defined.
  }}
>
  Click me
</button>

<button
  onClick={() => {
    console.log(this.id); //this doesn't work because "self" is not defined.
  }}
>
  Click me
</button>

This seems like a really simple question, but I kinda struggled with finding a solution, other then wrapping it in a component and getting/managing the id like that. Thanks for the help! =)

it should work with regular <button onClick={function(e) { console.log(this === e.currentTarget) }}>
