request help: Datadog plugin config

[redhandpl]

Issue description

HI,
I'm using Apisix chart 2.8.1 with Apisix 3.9.1 and cannot create metadata for DataDog plugin.
Following #2125 (comment) I downgraded to Apisix 3.7 and unfortunately it doesn't work either.

In both cases I'm using below code.

apiVersion: apisix.apache.org/v2
kind: ApisixGlobalRule
metadata:
  name: global
spec:
  plugins:
  - name: datadog
    enable: true
    config:
      host: "datadog-agent.datadog.svc.cluster.local"
      port: 8125
      namespace: "apisix"

This adds global rule

❯ curl "http://127.0.0.1:9180/apisix/admin/global_rules/" -H 'X-API-KEY: THEKEY'
{"total":1,"list":[{"key":"/apisix/global_rules/cd935c2f","value":{"id":"cd935c2f","plugins":{"datadog":{"port":8125,"prefer_name":true,"buffer_duration":60,"inactive_timeout":5,"retry_delay":1,"namespace":"apisix","name":"datadog","batch_max_size":1000,"max_retry_count":0,"host":"datadog-agent.datadog.svc.cluster.local"}},"create_time":1720782046,"update_time":1720783721},"modifiedIndex":641,"createdIndex":488}]}

But not the metedata

❯ curl http://127.0.0.1:9180/apisix/admin/plugin_metadata/ -H 'X-API-KEY: THEKEY'
{"total":0,"list":[]}

And in logs I still see

2024/07/12 11:36:22 [error] 51#51: *6297 [lua] datadog.lua:172: send_metric_over_udp(): failed to report req body size to dogstatsd server: host[127.0.0.1] port[8125] err: connection refused, context: ngx.timer, client: 10.103.10.44, server: 0.0.0.0:9080

Adding plugin-metadata-config-map, does not make any difference

kind: ConfigMap
metadata:
  name: plugin-metadata-config-map
data:
  config.yaml: |
    - cluster: default
      plugins:
      - name: datadog
        metadata:
          host: "datadog-agent.datadog.svc.cluster.local"
          port: 8125
          namespace: "apisix"

I also tried using ApisixPluginConfig CRD and proper config line in ApisixRoute. This doesn't work as well.

For now I have to manually call API by

❯ curl http://127.0.0.1:9180/apisix/admin/plugin_metadata/datadog -H 'X-API-KEY: THEKEY -X PUT -d '
{
    "host": "datadog-agent.datadog.svc.cluster.local",
    "port": 8125,
    "constant_tags": [
        "source:dev",
        "service:apisix"
    ],
    "namespace": "apisix"
}'

How can I achieve this by using CRD/configmap?

i've run into this exact issue as well.
Also posted in slack

I've zeroed in on the problem here

So far haven't heard back from the team and as i see this issue is also ignored.
