Documentation: How to know which agent runs which build

[adrienverge]

Hi,

We use Drone on multiple machines with different hardware capabilities. I'd like to know which builds runs on which agent, for debugging purpose. Unfortunately I couldn't find anything in the docs, in GitHub issues or on stackoverflow/drone.io.

1. Is there a way to print the agent's name? There does not seem to be an env variable for that. Otherwise is there a way to define custom per-agent variables, like asked in Arbitrary Agent environment variables #1808? If not, is there a way to get this information by ssh-ing on the Drone server (or agents) after builds are complete and containers deleted?

2. I'd like to improve Drone documentation by answering this question, because I think it's a legitimate one :)

I don't think this is a matter of documentation but rather it is just not possible ATM.

Seems to be related to #1496.
