Ansible Role: SonarQube (lrk.sonarqube)

An Ansible Role that install SonarQube.

Supported OSes

Centos 7

Requirements

Oracle JRE 8 onwards or OpenJDK 8 onwards installed on your machine.

For production environment, make sure to set the sonar_db_embedded variable to false and to configure sonar_db_* variables.

SonarQube support following databases: MySQL, Oracle, PostgreSQL and Microsoft SQLServer.

For further informations, please dive into SonarQube requirements

SonarQube plugin installation

This role support plugin installation based on "SonarQube manual plugin installation" procedure.

Please note that this role does not handle previously installed plugins. You HAVE TO remove previous versions yourself as stated in SonarQube documentation: If another version of the same plugin is already there, you need to remove it, since only one version of a given plugin may be available in the extensions/plugins directory.

You can list all plugin you need in the sonar_plugins variables, with the following syntax:

# sonar_plugins variable example:
sonar_plugins:
- { name: "sonar-ldap-plugin", version: "2.0", commercial: false}
- { name: "sonar-city-model-plugin", version: "3.3", commercial: true, url: "http://www.qalitax.com/descargas/product/sonar-city-model-plugin-3.3.jar?customerSurnames=update-center&customerCompany=sonar-update-center&customerName=sonarqube&customerEmail=downloads@excentia.es"}

Dependencies

This role need the following Ansible Galaxy dependencies:

geerlingguy.java

Override the default java_packages variable to set a java package that match SonarQube requirements on JAVA version (depending on SonarQube version)

As it use the following Ansible modules, it also need some packages on role target:

module unarchive: unzip package
