Find the active bootstrap modal using javascript

I do have dynamically generated modals with different Ids in it. I want to know which modal is opened/ shown to the user. I have a solution, If I do know the id of the model as

  $('#modelId').on('show.bs.modal', function (event) {  // modelId is dynamic
      var button = $(event.relatedTarget); 
      var productid = button.data('target');
      console.log(productid)
});

But How to get the modalId when we do not know which modal is triggered by the user?

Attach the event listener to the document instead. Example:

$(document).on('show.bs.modal', function(event) { // modelId is dynamic
  var button = $(event.relatedTarget);
  var productid = button.data('target');
  console.log(productid)
});
