Sonarqube Community Branch Plugin

A plugin for SonarQube to allow branch analysis in the Community version.

Support

This plugin is not maintained or supported by SonarSource and has no official upgrade path for migrating from the SonarQube Community Edition to any of the Commercial Editions (Developer, Enterprise, or Data Center Edition). Support for any problems is only available through issues on the Github repository or through alternative channels (e.g. StackOverflow) and any attempt to request support for this plugin directly from SonarSource or an affiliated channel (e.g. Sonar Community forum) is likely to result in your request being closed or ignored.

If you plan on migrating your SonarQube data to a commercial edition after using this plugin then please be aware that this may result in some or all of your data being lost due to this compatibility of this plugin and the official SonarQube branch features being untested.

Compatibility

Use the following table to find the correct plugin version for each SonarQube version

SonarQube Version	Plugin Version
7.8+	1.2.0
7.4 - 7.7	1.0.2

Installation

Either build the project or download a compatible release version of the plugin JAR. Copy the plugin JAR file to the extensions/plugins/ and the lib/common/ directories of your SonarQube instance and restart SonarQube.

Features

The plugin is intended to support the features and parameters specified in the SonarQube documentation, with the following caveats

• Pull Requests: Analysis of Pull Requests is fully supported, but the decoration of pull requests is only currently available for Github, Gitlab and Bitbucket Server, and only as an experimental feature

Properties

Property key	Description
com.github.mc1arke.sonarqube.plugin.branch.image-url-base	Can be set in sonar.properties file on the SonarQube server and is used to load the images for the PR comments. Default base image location link.

Bitbucket Server

To enable setting of several properties in SonarQube on project level is required.

The property "projectKey" or "userSlug" are mandatory in order to decide which API endpoint should be used.

Tasks:

• overall comment
• enable and disable file comment and overall comment
• file comment
• reset comments (all comments are reset by property userSlug. It's therefore highly recommended to create a user in your company that's only purpose it is to comment sonar issues)

Contribution

To generate the jar file to copy to your Sonar Server execute ./gradlew clean build inside of the project dir. This will put the jar under libs/sonarqube-community-branch-plugin*.jar
