Sonar Scanning Examples

This repository showcases basic examples of usage and code coverage for SonarScanners.

• SonarScanner for Gradle
• SonarScanner for .NET
• SonarScanner for Maven
• SonarScanner CLI in a Java Ant project (Formerly SonarScanner for Ant - this scanner is now deprecated, use SonarScanner CLI)
• SonarScanner CLI

Sonar's Clean Code solution helps developers deliver high-quality, efficient code standards that benefit the entire team or organization.

Examples

Various Languages

SonarScanner for various languages

Scan all the languages available or change directory to a language folder to scan just that language.

Ant

Scanning an Ant project is no different than scanning a plain Java (no build tool) project. Ant is used to build the project, but not to run the scan. Instead, the SonarScanner CLI is used.

• SonarScanner for Ant - Basic
• SonarScanner for Ant - Code Coverage

SonarScanner for Ant is now deprecated. Please migrate to the SonarScanner CLI.

Gradle

If you have a Gradle project, we recommend the use of SonarScanner for Gradle or the equivalent gradle sonar task in your CI pipeline.

• SonarScanner for Gradle - Basic
• SonarScanner for Gradle - Kotlin DSL with build.gradle.kts
• SonarScanner for Gradle - Kotlin
• SonarScanner for Gradle - Multi-Module
• SonarScanner for Gradle - Multi-Module Code Coverage

Maven

If you have a Maven project, we recommend the use of SonarScanner for Maven or the equivalent mvn org.sonarsource.scanner.maven:sonar-maven-plugin:sonar goal in your CI pipeline.

• SonarScanner for Maven - Basic
• SonarScanner for Maven - Multilingual (Java + Kotlin with coverage)
• SonarScanner for Maven - Multi-Module

DotNet/C#

If you have a .NET project, we recommend the use of SonarScanner for .NET or the equivalent SonarScanner for .NET on your CI pipeline.

• SonarScanner for .NET/MSBuild - C#

Swift

SonarScanner - Swift Code Coverage

C/C++/Objective-C

NOTE: All SonarScanner examples for C, C++ and Objective-C can be found here.

• SonarSource sample C and C++ projects with SonarCloud or SonarQube analysis configured
• C and C++ projects for different CI pipelines and build systems configured for Linux, Windows, and Mac
