python vte: get the pid of the fork process

Question

I'm using a vte term to run a bash script

self.child_pid = self.v.fork_command(None, ['/bin/bash', 'dPluzz-cli', dest, '-u', adresse])

How can I do to get the number of the pid ? I tried

os.getpid()

but the pid is the number of my python program..

Thanks!

Solved...

id = self.child_pid

Old question, instead of fork_command you now need spawn_sync:

spawn_sync returns a tuple, second element is pid.
