How to build the RPM

Prepare a linux (e.g. centos)
Download sonarqube-.zip to ./downloads
run ./build.sh

System requirements

Use a linux capable of running yum
- To make things easy, run a docker container and map this repository clone for further interactive tasks:
```
docker run -it -v $(pwd):/sonar-rpm centos /bin/bash
```
  - Install rpm-build and createrepo
```
yum install rpm-build createrepo
```
  - (Or build a new docker image based on the changes below and run build directly)

Example

With Sonar 7.6 do the following

Download the Sonar Archive

cd /sonar-rpm/downloads
curl -L -O https://binaries.sonarsource.com/CommercialDistribution/sonarqube-developer/sonarqube-developer-7.6.zip
cd ..

Put the archive into the downloads folder (you may need to rename your distribution to sonarqube-7.6.zip).

Create the rpm package

./build.sh 7.6

Test the rpm package installation locally

yum --nogpgcheck localinstall repo/rpm/noarch/sonar-7.6-1.noarch.rpm

Test the rpm package on a remote repository

_{Remark: we neglect GPG checks here; please ensure appropriate GPG key handling in real world scenarios.}

Deploy the RPM as a new artifact onto any RPM repository, e.g. an Artifactory instance.
Use a regular yum install
```
yum install sonar-7.6
```

In order to successfully install this with yum a custom repository entry must be created

Either as a manual entry in the local system, e.g. /etc/yum.repos.d/<any_name>.repo

[sonar]
name=Sonar
baseurl=https://<your-custom-rpm-repo-base-uri>/rpm//sonar/
gpgcheck=0

Or by using IaC tools like Ansible to provide such a repository automatically, e.g.

- name: "SonarQube Artifactory RPM Repository is registered as local yum repo"
  yum_repository:
    name: example-org
    description: "Your Artifactory"
    baseurl: "https://artifacts.example.org/rpm/exmple-org/sonar"
    enabled: yes
    gpgcheck: no
    proxy: _none_

- name: "SonarQube server is installed"
  yum:
    update_cache: true
    pkg: "sonar-{{ sonar_version }}"
    state: installed
