如何通过单击表格视图单元格上的按钮来获取文档ID？

Question

I am using a xib file apart from the main storyboard in my view controller for displaying a post item, and there is comment button, upon being clicked it should go to another page where the list of comments related to that post is available. for that I need to pass the documentId of the post as well so that the accurate segue operation could be performed.

I have tried my things by searching google but till now nothing had worked for me.

if any more details are required please let me know

In PostTableViewCell create outlet of comment buttons

class PostTableViewCell: UITableViewCell {

@IBOutlet weak var btnComment: UIButton!

now in cellForRowAtIndex do add following line too

func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, cellForRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> UITableViewCell {
    let cell = tableView.dequeueReusableCell(withIdentifier: "postCell", for: indexPath) as! PostTableViewCell
cell.btnComment.tag = indexPath.row
cell.btnComment.addTarget(self, action: #selector(self. toCommentsSection(sender:)) , for: .touchUpInside)
    cell.set(post: posts[indexPath.row])
    return cell
}

and in

 @IBAction func toCommentsSection(_ sender: Any) {

    let commentbutton = sender as! UIButton
    let post = posts[commentbutton.tag]
    postKey = post.postKey // or what key value it is 
    print(postKey + "hello")
    //  let postId11 = detailView?._documentId
    performSegue(withIdentifier: "toCommentsList", sender: self)

}
