C++ example project scanned on SonarQube using AutoConfig

This project is analysed on SonarQube!

It is very easy to analyze a C, C++ and Objective-C project with SonarQube using AutoConfig:

1. Create a sonar-project.properties file to store your configuration

2. In your .github/workflows/build.yml file:

   1. Set the environment variable SONAR_HOST_URL to your server url (e.g.: https://example.com:9000)

   2. Analyze your code using the SonarQube Scan Github Action

3. Ensure that your token is stored as a secret in your repository (SONARQUBE_TOKEN in this example project). If you don’t have a token yet, you can generate a new one in SonarQube (see Generating and Using Tokens).

You can take a look at the sonar-project.properties and build.yml to see it in practice.

Code Description

An example of a flawed C++ code. The code repository can be analyzed automatically, but it can also be compiled with different build systems using different CI pipelines on Linux, macOS, and Windows.

The code repository is forked into other repositories in this collection to add a specific build system, platform, and CI. The downstream repositories are analyzed either with SonarQube or SonarCloud.

You can find examples for:

• Linux

• macOS

• Windows

Using the following build systems:

• CMake

• GNU Autotools

• Xcode

• MSBuild

Running on the following CI services:

• Azure DevOps

• GitHub Actions

• Travis

• Jenkins

• GitLab CI

• BitBucket Pipelines

• Additionally, generic examples demonstrate integration with other CIs and manual-configuration examples should help you if you are running locally.

Configured for analysis on:

• SonarQube

• SonarCloud

You can find also a few examples demonstrating:

• The use of Compilation Database (compile_commands.json)

• Test coverage
