Smooth SonarQube and Jenkins Integration
Introduction
To seamlessly integrate SonarQube with Jenkins, you need to establish a secure connection between the two platforms. This guide will walk you through the steps to create a secret text security credential in Jenkins to store your SonarQube server token.Configuring SonarQube for Jenkins Integration
Log in to your SonarQube server and navigate to the "My Account" section. Under the "Security" tab, generate a new authentication token. This token will be used to authenticate your Jenkins instance with SonarQube.
Next, on your Jenkins instance, log in as an administrator and go to "Manage Jenkins" > "Configure System." In the "Global Security" section, select "Sonar Auth Token" from the "Authorization" dropdown menu.
Creating a Secret Text Credential in Jenkins
Click on the "Add" button to create a new secret text credential. Give it a descriptive name, such as "SonarQube Token." In the "Secret" field, paste the token you generated from SonarQube.
Make sure to select "Secret Text" from the "Domain" dropdown menu. Click "OK" to save the credential.
Configuring SonarQube in Jenkins
Now you can configure SonarQube in Jenkins to use the secret text credential. Go to "Configure System" again and select "SonarQube Configuration."
In the "Authorization" field, select the credential name you created earlier. Enter the URL of your SonarQube server in the "Server URL" field and provide the necessary credentials to access your SonarQube instance.
Click "Test Connection" to ensure proper configuration.
You have successfully configured a secret text security credential in Jenkins to hold your SonarQube server token. This allows you to seamlessly integrate SonarQube with Jenkins for automated code analysis and quality control.
