Hi,
For the connector injector, can we add another annotation instead of ‘consul.hashicorp.com/connect-inject’: ‘true’?
Hi @jason123,
Consul does not support using a different annotation to inject sidecar proxies.
Could you provide a bit more information as to why you would like to use a different annotation name?
Hi @blake,
I’m using some other helm charts that have their own custom resource definitions and it seems like I can’t edit the annotations in the correct place so I thought it would be easier for consul to be able to have a way to append extra injector metadata that it could search for.
Hi @jason123,
You could alternatively enable connect inject only on namespaces with a particular label. This would eliminate the need to annotate individual pods in order to enable connect for that app. See https://www.consul.io/docs/k8s/helm#v-connectinject-namespaceselector for more info.
