Description

A project analysis should be started from an independent Java program, outside build tools like maven or ant. For example :

java -jar sonar-batch.jar my-project.properties

The first parameter is the location of the project configuration file. It defines metadata like source and binary directories, project key, language or name.

project.key=my:project
project.name=My project
project.version=1.0
project.sources=src/main/java
project.sources=src/main/resources
project.binaries=output/classes
project.language=java
sonar.dynamicAnalysis=reuseReports
sonar.surefire.reports=output/junit/

Parameters can also be defined from command-line :

java -jar sonar-batch.jar my-project.properties -Dsonar.host.url=http://localhost:9000 -Dsonar.jdbc.url=jdbc:derby://localhost:1527/sonar

The main JAR contains the bootstrapper. It downloads batch and plugin libraries from server.

Couple of notes (after investigations made for SONAR-1514) about how this program should start execution :

  1. Main method should use SONAR-2106 to create ClassLoader with sonar-batch and its dependencies
  2. Execution should be transferred to other class with main method, but which was loaded by new ClassLoader
  3. And now this class can create ProjectDefinition using sonar-plugin-api and invoke sonar-batch


So in final JAR we will include only bootstrapper.
I believe that this technique flexible enough and can be used not only by Ant and Java program, but also by other build-tools. But I'm not sure about IDEs.

For a user point of view, I expect to :

  • Download and Unzip an archive
  • Define a SONAR_RUNNER_HOME environment variable
  • Add $ {SONAR_RUNNER_HOME}/bin to my PATH
    * Find and update a ${SONAR_RUNNER_HOME}

    /conf/sonar-runner.properties. This file should contain the global properties like sonar.host.url.

  • And then being able to launch the "sonar" command from anywhere. Without additional information, the "sonar" command should expect to find a sonar-project.properties in the current directory to get information about the project to analyse.
