How does SonarQube Community Edition integrate with the project

After you have set up the SonarQube instance, you will need to integrate SonarQube with project.

Because I used the community edition version, it doesn’t support the C/C++ project, so I only demo how to integrate with Maven, Gradle, and Others.

For example, the demo project name and ID in SonarQube are both test-demo, and I build with Jenkins.

Build with Maven

1. Add the following to your pom.xml file:

   <properties>
     <sonar.projectKey>test-demo</sonar.projectKey>
   </properties>

2. Add the following code to your Jenkinsfile:

   stage('SonarQube Analysis') {
     def mvn = tool 'Default Maven';
     withSonarQubeEnv() {
       sh "${mvn}/bin/mvn sonar:sonar"
     }
   }

Build with Gradle

1. Add the following to your build.gradle file:

   plugins {
     id "org.sonarqube" version "3.3"
   }
   
   sonarqube {
     properties {
       property "sonar.projectKey", "test-demo"
     }
   }

2. Add the following code to your Jenkinsfile:

   stage('SonarQube Analysis') {
     withSonarQubeEnv() {
       sh "./gradlew sonarqube"
     }
   }

Build with Other(for JS, TS, Python, …)

1. Create a sonar-project.properties file in your repository and paste the following code:

   sonar.projectKey=test-demo

2. Add the following code to your Jenkinsfile:

   stage('SonarQube Analysis') {
     def scannerHome = tool 'SonarScanner';
     withSonarQubeEnv() {
       sh "${scannerHome}/bin/sonar-scanner"
     }
   }
