pysonar-scanner 0.2.0.520

Sonar Scanner for the Python Ecosystem

pysonar-scanner

A wrapper around SonarScanner CLI, available on PyPI.

Disclaimer

This project is currently in beta and APIs are subject to change. These changes include configuration parameter names.

Requirements

• SonarQube v9.9 or higher
• Python 3.8 or above

Installation

Install with pip:

pip install pysonar-scanner

Usage

Once installed, the pysonar-scanner can be run from the command line to perform an analysis. It assumes a running SonarQube server or a project configured on SonarCloud.

Setting up analysis properties

In order for the analysis to run, analysis properties need to be defined. There are multiple ways of providing these properties, described below in descending order of priority:

• Through CLI arguments to the pysonar-scanner command
• Under the [tool.sonar] key of the pyproject.toml file
• Through common properties extracted from the pyproject.toml
• In a dedicated sonar-project.properties file
• Through environment variables

Through CLI arguments

Analysis properties can be provided as CLI arguments to the pysonar-scanner command. They follow the same convention as when running the SonarScanner CLI directly (see documentation). This means that analysis properties provided that way should be prepended with -D, for instance:

$ pysonar-scanner -Dsonar.login=myAuthenticationToken 

You can use all the argument allowed by SonarScanner. For more information on SonarScanner please refer to the SonarScanner documentation

With a pyproject.toml file

Inside a pyproject.toml, Sonar analysis properties can be defined under the tool.sonar table.

[tool.sonar]
# must be unique in a given SonarQube/SonarCloud instance
projectKey=my:project

# --- optional properties ---
# defaults to project key
#projectName=My project
# defaults to 'not provided'
#projectVersion=1.0
 
# Path is relative to the pyproject.toml file. Defaults to .
#sources=.
 
# Encoding of the source code. Default is default system encoding
#sourceEncoding=UTF-8

The configuration parameters can be found in the SonarQube documentation.

In the pyproject.toml file the prefix sonar. for parameter keys should be omitted. For example, sonar.scm.provider in the documentation will become scm.provider in the pyproject.toml file.

By default, the scanner will expect the pyproject.toml file to be present in the current directory. However, its path can be provided manually through the toml.path (PYSCAN-40) CLI argument as well as through the sonar.projectHome argument. For instance:

pysonar-scanner -Dtoml.path="path/to/pyproject.toml"

Or:

pysonar-scanner -Dsonar.projectHome="path/to/projectHome"

Through project properties extracted from the pyproject.toml

When a pyproject.toml file is available, it is possible to set the -read-project-config flag to allow the scanner to deduce analysis properties from the project configuration.

This is currently supported only for projects using poetry.

The Sonar scanner will then use the project name and version defined through Poetry, they won't have to be duplicated under a dedicated tool.sonar section.

With a sonar-project.properties file

Exactly like SonarScanner, the analysis can also be configured with a sonar-project.properties file:

# must be unique in a given SonarQube/SonarCloud instance
sonar.projectKey=my:project

# --- optional properties ---

# defaults to project key
#sonar.projectName=My project
# defaults to 'not provided'
#sonar.projectVersion=1.0
 
# Path is relative to the sonar-project.properties file. Defaults to .
#sonar.sources=.
 
# Encoding of the source code. Default is default system encoding
#sonar.sourceEncoding=UTF-8

Through environment variables

It is also possible to define configure the scanner through environment variables:

$ export SONAR_HOST_URL="http://localhost:9000"
$ pysonar-scanner 

See the SonarScanner documentation for more information.
