How to get the Publication Target of a current Page in C#?

Question

What I need is to have the Publication Target of a current Page.

With the following code I get the Publication Target where the Page is published, but now I need to ensure that this Publication Target is the same as the Publication Target where the Page is publishing to.

ICollection<PublishInfo> publishInfo = PublishEngine.GetPublishInfo(page);
foreach (PublishInfo info in publishInfo)
{
    info.PublicationTarget.Id
}

I'm trying to avoid the situation that if you publish a Page from the same CMS into Staging and Live and you are showing the Pages just if they are published or not. Also Pages published on Staging will appear in Live.

Thanks in advance

In an Assembly Template Building Block you can determine the RenderMode and PublishingContext via the engine.

But before checking what Publication Target the current item is being published to, you need to know if you are actually being published, or if the render action of the Template is just a preview.

if (engine.RenderMode == RenderMode.Publish)
{
    PublicationTarget target = engine.PublishingContext.PublicationTarget;
}

From here onwards you can use target.Id or target.Title to check if it is your staging or live target that your item is being published to.
