I'm trying to setup SonarQube to analyse my TypeScript project using this plugin: https://github.com/Pablissimo/SonarTsPlugin
However, I'm encountering an error like:
> C:\sonarqube\sonar-runner-2.4\bin\sonar-runner.bat
...

ERROR: Error during Sonar runner execution
ERROR: Unable to execute Sonar
ERROR: Caused by: You must install a plugin that supports the language 'typescript'
ERROR:
ERROR: To see the full stack trace of the errors, re-run SonarQube Runner with the -e switch.

My setup: - Windows 7 64 bit - JDK8 (1.8.0) 64 bit - SonarQube 5.1 64 bit
I've built the plugin from source, and copied the resulting .jar file to my SonarQube installation at C:\sonarqube\sonarqube-5.1\extensions\plugins\sonar-typescript-plugin-0.1-SNAPSHOT.jar
.
SonarQube is running and serving to port 9000, and I can see at Settings->System->UpdateCenter that the TypeScript plugin is installed, with language keyword typescript
.
Based on this post, it seems I must:
Login to your Sonar instance, click on "Settings" > "Quality profiles" and "Create" on top of the heading for the language you want to use.
Looking at those settings, I see a Typescript Profiles
heading, with a TsLint
profile defined and set to Default.
Finally, in my project root directory, I have a file sonar-project.properties
# Required metadata
sonar.projectKey=my-ts-project
sonar.projectName=A TypeScript Project
sonar.projectVersion=1.0
# Comma-separated paths to directories with sources (required)
sonar.sources=src
# Language
sonar.language=typescript
# Encoding of the source files
sonar.sourceEncoding=UTF-8
With all this configuration in place, I still receive the sonar-runner error "You must install a plugin that supports the language".
What am I missing?
edit:
I tried installing the JavaScript plugin, and I'm seeing the same problem. So this isn't limited to TypeScript. I can run Sonar against Java projects, but no other languages seem to work.
Okay, I figured out how to solve this specific problem. The key sonar.language
in my sonar-project.properties
should be set to ts
, not typescript
.
# Language
sonar.language=ts
I figured this out by looking at example project corresponding to the javascript plugin: https://github.com/SonarSource/sonar-examples/blob/master/projects/languages/javascript/javascript-sonar-runner/sonar-project.properties. Here, the language is set to js
not javascript
.
I have to guess that, in general, the language key should be set to the normal file extension for source files? i.e. Java -> .java, JavaScript -> .js, TypeScript -> .ts ... If so, well that's not obvious. Is there any way to confirm this hunch?
