Before using istio-proxy for access logs I injected k8s pod uid as env variable in my container like this :
containers:
env:
- name: MY_POD_UID
valueFrom:
fieldRef:
apiVersion: v1
fieldPath: metadata.uid
- name: MY_POD_NAME
valueFrom:
fieldRef:
apiVersion: v1
fieldPath: metadata.name
then i did “echo $MY_POD_UID” to display uid.
Now I use istio-proxy for access logs.
What is the best way to inject pod uid in istio-proxy ? how to display it with an EnvoyFilter ?
