Is it possible to disable deployment.adcContainer (Helm apisix-2.11.6 / version:ingress-controller-1.0.5, image:apache/apisix-ingress-controller:1.8.4)?

[sopacifics]

The new controller chart injects an ADC sidecar (ghcr.io/api7/adc), configured under deployment.adcContainer in values.yaml.

I don’t see an enabled flag; attempts like:

ngress-controller:
  deployment:
    adcContainer:
      enabled: false   # or enable: false or adcContainer: {} among others

It tested multiple approaches, but they have no effect.

We’re running ControlPlane (Admin API / etcd) mode (not Standalone) and would like to avoid the ADC sidecar in production.

Questions

• Is there a supported way to disable the ADC sidecar via chart values (e.g., deployment.adcContainer.enabled=false) in 2.11.6 (controller 1.0.5)?

@sopacifics In apache/apisix-ingress-controller:2.0.0, ADC is the required component to do transformation from Ingress/CRD/... to APISIX format. Refer to https://github.com/apache/apisix-ingress-controller/blob/master/docs/en/latest/upgrade-guide.md
