SonarQube/SonarCloud Scanner for the JavaScript world
npm install bf-sonarqube-scannersonarqube-scanner makes it very easy to trigger SonarQube
/ SonarCloud analyses on a JavaScript code base, without needing
to install any specific tool or (Java) runtime.
This module is analyzed on SonarCloud using
itself:
- See the Gulp file
- See the analysis results on SonarCloud
      
This package is available on npm as: sonarqube-scanner
To add code analysis to your build files, simply add the package to your project dev dependencies:
`` sh`
npm install -D sonarqube-scanner
To install the scanner globally and be able to run analyses on the command line:
` sh`
npm install -g sonarqube-scanner
_Prerequisite: you've installed the package as a dev dependency._
The following example shows how to run an analysis on a JavaScript
project using Gulp, and pushing the results to SonarCloud,
the online code-analysis service based on SonarQube:
`javascript
var gulp = require('gulp');
var sonarqubeScanner = require('sonarqube-scanner');
gulp.task('default', function(callback) {
sonarqubeScanner({
serverUrl : "https://sonarcloud.io",
token : "019d1e2e04eefdcd0caee1468f39a45e69d33d3f",
options : {
"sonar.organization": "my-org"
}
}, callback);
});
`
Syntax: sonarqube-scanner ( parameters, [callback] )
Arguments
parameters Map*
serverUrl String* (optional) The URL of the SonarQube server. Defaults to http://localhost:9000
token String* (optional) The token used to connect to the SonarQube server. Empty by default.
options Map* (optional) Used to pass extra parameters for the SonarQube analysis. See the official documentation for more details.
callback Function* (optional)
Callback (the execution of the analysis is asynchronous).
_Prerequisite: you've installed the package globally._
If you want to run an analysis without having to configure anything in the first place, simply run the sonar-scanner command. The following
example assumes that you have installed SonarQube locally:
`
cd my-project
sonar-scanner
Specifying properties/settings
* If there's a package.json file in the folder, it will be read to feed the analysis with basic information (like project name or version)sonar-project.properties
* If there's a file in the folder, it will behave like the original SonarQube Scanner-Dsonar.xxx=yyy
* Additional analysis parameters can be passed on the command line using the standard syntaxsonar-scanner -Dsonar.host.url=https://myserver.com -Dsonar.login=019d1e2e04e
* Example:
#### I constantly get "Impossible to download and extract binary [...] In such situation, the best solution is to install the standard SonarQube Scanner", what can I do?
You can install manually the standard SonarQube Scanner,
which requires to have a Java Runtime Environment available too (Java 8+). Once this is done, you can replace the 2nd line
of the example by:
`javascript`
var sonarqubeScanner = require('sonarqube-scanner').customScanner;
By default, SonarQube scanner binaries are downloaded from https://binaries.sonarsource.com/Distribution/sonar-scanner-cli/.$SONAR_SCANNER_MIRROR
To use a custom mirror, set .
Example:
`shell`
export SONAR_SCANNER_MIRROR=https://npm.taobao.org/mirrors/sonar-scanner/
