Requirements

Jenkins

Jenkins version 1.532 or newer is required.

Sonar

Working with all the versions of Sonar.

Setup

1. Global Configuration

1.1. No Sonar Instance Configured

        If there isn’t any instance configured the Global Configuration will look like this:

        And the plugin will be running with default Sonar Instance. Which contains the following values: URL=’http//localhost:9000′, Username=’admin’ and Password=’admin’.

1.2. One Sonar Instance Configured

• Name

  – 

  Specify the value of the name, so that is not empty. 

  Configurations with duplicated values for the name will not be saved.

• SonarQube Server URL

  – 

  Specify the URL of your Sonar instance 

  URL format for HTTP protocol is any legal http address, e.g.

  http://myhost.com:9000

• SonarQube account login

  – 

  Specify the username for your account on this instance of Sonar, otherwise Quality Gates Plugin won’t be able to get the necessary data if anonymous access is disabled for your project. 

  If not specified the default Sonar username will be used.

• SonarQube account password

  – 

  Specify the password for your account on this instance of Sonar, otherwise Quality Gates Plugin won’t be able to get the necessary data if anonymous access is disabled for your project. 

  If not specified the default Sonar password will be used.

1.3. 

Two or more Sonar Instances Configured

        If you have two or more configurations for Sonar Instances in the Global Configuration you will need to choose one of them in your job configuration.

2. Job Configuration

Quality Gates Plugin needs a SonarQube code analysis so it can check its Quality Gates status. In order to get the latest quality gates status from the most recent Sonar analysis, Quality Gates Plugin should be put below SonarQube plugin in the post-build step of the job if you use the older version of SonarQube analysis or if you use the Standalone SonarQube Analysis in the build step of the job just put our plugin in the post-build step.

  ex: ‘com.company%3AMyProject’ is your Project Key
