Gets information about a completed sonar scan such as quality gate status, task status, and project name. This operation takes SonarQube Account Code, SonarQube project key, and taskId (scan Id), as input.

Analysis Tool Instance Properties

Property Name	Property Code	Required	Description
SonarQube instance URL	FDSONARQUBEACCT_INSTANCE_URL	Yes	SonarQube Server Instance URL (example: https://localhost:9000)
SonarQube Token	FDSONARQUBEACCT_TOKEN	No	SonarQube Server Token provides credentials to run code scans or to invoke web services as a replacement of the user login. Provide a token or username and password.

Outputs

Output Name	Description
FDSQ_OUT_QUALITY_GATE_STATUS	Defines the status of the project based on all the quality gate(s) defined for the project. Possible values: OK, WARN, ERROR, NONE. The NONE status is returned when there is no quality gate associated with the analysis.

FDSQ_OUT_TASK_ID	Id of the task being retrieved.
FDSQ_OUT_TASK_TYPE	Task type. Possible Values: REPORT
FDSQ_OUT_TASK_COMPONENT_ID	Component Id.
FDSQ_OUT_TASK_COMPONENT_KEY	Component Key.
FDSQ_OUT_TASK_COMPONENT_NAME	Component Name.
FDSQ_OUT_TASK_COMPONENT_QUALIFIER	Component Qualifier.
FDSQ_OUT_TASK_ANALYSIS_ID	Analysis Id.
FDSQ_OUT_TASK_STATUS	Task status. Possible values: SUCCESS, FAILED, CANCELED, PENDING, IN_PROGRESS

Special Considerations

SonarQube instance required

Download the SonarQube Community Edition.
As a non-root user, unzip it, let's say in C:\sonarqube or /opt/sonarqube.

As anon-rootuser, start the SonarQube Server:

# On Windows, execute:
C:\sonarqube\bin\windows-x86-xx\StartSonar.bat

# On other operating systems, as a non-root user execute:
/opt/sonarqube/bin/[OS]/sonar.sh console

If you're having trouble starting your server for the first time (or any subsequent time!) the first thing to do is check your server logs. You'll find them in $SONARQUBE_HOME/logs:

sonar.log - Log for the main process. Holds general information about startup and shutdown. You'll get overall status here but not details. Look to the other logs for that.
web.log - Information about initial connection to the database, database migration and reindexing, and the processing of HTTP requests. This includes database and search engine logs related to those requests.
ce.log - Information about background task processing and the database and search engine logs related to those tasks.
es.log - Ops information from the search engine, such as Elasticsearch startup, health status changes, cluster-, node- and index-level operations, etc.

Log in to http://localhost:9000 with System Administrator credentials (login=admin, password=admin).
Click the Create new project button to analyze your first project.

Example

Step 1: Gather authentication information.

If you choose to use a token over username and password for authentication you can generate it on your SonarQube Server. To get a SonarQube Token: login to your SonarQube Instance (http://host:port ex: http://localhost:9000/) and navigate to My Account->Security->Generate New Token. Make sure you copy and save this token somewhere secure because after you leave this screen you will not be able to see your token again.

Step 2: Create a SonarQube Analysis Tool Account

FlexDeploy 5.5 > retrieveSonarScan > image2020-2-17_10-50-4.png

FlexDeploy 5.5 > retrieveSonarScan > image2020-2-24_8-12-3.png

Under SonarQube Account define:
- SonarQube Instance URL (http://host:port with no extra "/" at the end).
- Token OR username AND password for SonarQube Instance.

Step 3: Get the task id for the scan you want to retrieve. You can do this two ways.

If you ran a startScan operation then you can use the task id returned from its output

OR

If you have admin access on your SonarQube Instance, then you can access the task Id for any projects scan directly by going to Projects→selecting a project→Administration→Background Tasks. The task id is under the ID column.

Step 5: Define output names for all outputs you wish to return (FDSQ_OUT_QUALITY_GATE_STATUS, FDSQ_OUT_DASHBOARD_URL, FDSQ_OUT_TASK_ID, ect..) and create variables with matching names.

FlexDeploy 5.5 > retrieveSonarScan > image2020-2-17_12-47-11.png

Step 6: Create a project, select your sonar scan workflow, and instance.

Step 7: Run the workflow to start your sonar scan.
