Problem: I am setting up jenkins + sonar + github integration for automatic pullrequest static code check through sonar.
My
Finally I am able to solve this issue. Here is the detail:
Install Jenkins with the following plugins
Follow this link to setup pull request builder plugin: https://wiki.jenkins-ci.org/display/JENKINS/GitHub+pull+request+builder+plugin#GitHubpullrequestbuilderplugin-EnvironmentVariables
PullRequest Builder Setup
add github url to GitHub Project section
Setup Source Code Management Section
Setup Build Trigger
Setup Sonar for post build actions
In the additional properties section provide the following sonar properties
-Dsonar.sourceEncoding=UTF-8 -Dsonar.analysis.mode=preview -Dsonar.github.repository=company/repo -Dsonar.github.login=gitusername -Dsonar.github.oauth=oauthtoken -Dsonar.host.url=sonarhostedurl -Dsonar.login=admin -Dsonar.password=pass -Dsonar.github.pullRequest=${ghprbPullId} ${ghprbPullId}: this will be provided via github pullrequest builder plugin
Note: The job should be triggered through pullrequest builder plugin otherwise ${ghprbPullId} will return blank. If you run the job manually this will not work for that you have to pass this ${ghprbPullId} property as a build parameter. If you want to check the environment parameter available follow this Git environment variables for use in executing Jenkins shell scripts
I hope this helps.
