How to get a block's alias (as) programmatically

[fperrin]

Hello,

I'm trying to get some info about block in an observer but I haven't been able to get the alias (or 'as' parameter in layout xml). I've tried several different things without success. Here is a look at my (partial) code:

public function getBlockInfo(
        \Magento\Framework\View\Element\BlockInterface $block,
        $fullInfo = true
    ){
        $info = array(
            'name' => $block->getNameInLayout(),
            'alias' => '', //TODO: Add block alias to list
        );
        return $info;
}

Can anyone help me out here ?

Thanks
