gitlab-sonar-scanner

Container to be used with sonar gitlab plugin.

Using it in your gitlab projects

Add the next stage to your .gitlab-ci.yml.

stages:
- analysis

sonarqube:
  stage: analysis
  image: ciricihq/gitlab-sonar-scanner
  variables:
    SONAR_URL: "http://your-gocd-server:9000"
    SONAR_PROJECT_VERSION: "$CI_BUILD_ID"
    SONAR_ANALYSIS_MODE: "issues"
  script:
  - /usr/bin/sonar-scanner-run.sh

Before running the analysis stage you should ensure to have the project created in your sonarqube + having it configured to use the gitlab plugin (specifying the gitlab repo url).

You also need to give developer permissions to the user that will comment in gitlab.

Sending the data to sonar

The previous stage will play along the gitlab plugin to publish all the coments in it, but if you wanna send the analysis reports to sonar, you should change two things:

stages:
- analysis

sonarqube-reports:
  stage: analysis
  image: ciricihq/gitlab-sonar-scanner
  variables:
    SONAR_URL: "http://your-gocd-server:9000"
    SONAR_PROJECT_VERSION: "$CI_BUILD_ID"
    SONAR_ANALYSIS_MODE: "publish"
  script:
  - unset CI_BUILD_REF && /usr/bin/sonar-scanner-run.sh

Note how we've changed from issues to publish in SONAR_ANALYSIS_MODE + we've added unset CI_BUILD_REF && before the sonar-sacnner-run.sh command.

Unsetting the CI_BUILD_REF before running the scanner will disable the gitlab plugin and thus allow you to publish the results to sonarqube.
