how set consul-sync-catalog CONSUL_HTTP_ADDR in helm?

[ndhanushkodi]

Hi @kong62, the CONSUL_HTTP_ADDR environment variable is being set in this template: https://github.com/hashicorp/consul-helm/blob/master/templates/sync-catalog-deployment.yaml#L98. Line 98 is why yours is getting set to http://consul-server:8500, since you don't have clients or tls enabled. Are you looking to customize the value of this variable? That is currently not supported but could be a feature request. Let us know if you have further questions.

Closing as this is addressed via https://github.com/hashicorp/consul-k8s/pull/1659 which allows sync catalog to work without clients
