# sonarqube-backend

Welcome to the sonarqube-backend backend plugin!

## Integrating into a backstage instance

This plugin needs to be added to an existing backstage instance.

```bash
# From your Backstage root directory
yarn add --cwd packages/backend @backstage/plugin-sonarqube-backend
```

Typically, this means creating a `src/plugins/sonarqube.ts` file and adding a reference to it to `src/index.ts` in the backend package.

### sonarqube.ts

```typescript
import {
  createRouter,
  DefaultSonarqubeInfoProvider,
} from '@backstage/plugin-sonarqube-backend';
import { Router } from 'express';
import { PluginEnvironment } from '../types';

export default async function createPlugin(
  env: PluginEnvironment,
): Promise<Router> {
  return await createRouter({
    logger: env.logger,
    sonarqubeInfoProvider: DefaultSonarqubeInfoProvider.fromConfig(env.config),
  });
}
```

### src/index.ts

```diff
diff --git a/packages/backend/src/index.ts b/packages/backend/src/index.ts

This plugin must be provided with a `SonarqubeInfoProvider`, this is a strategy object for finding Sonarqube instances in configuration and retrieving data from an instance.

There is a standard one provided (`DefaultSonarqubeInfoProvider`), but the Integrator is free to build their own.

### DefaultSonarqubeInfoProvider

Allows configuration of either a single or multiple global Sonarqube instances and annotating entities with the instance name. This instance name in the entities is optional, if not provided the default instance in configuration will be used. That allow to keep configuration from before multiple instances capability to keep working without changes.

#### Example - Single global instance

##### Config

```yaml
sonarqube:
  baseUrl: https://sonarqube.example.com
  apiKey: 123456789abcdef0123456789abcedf012
```

##### Catalog

```yaml
apiVersion: backstage.io/v1alpha1
kind: Component
metadata:
  name: backstage
  annotations:
    sonarqube.org/project-key: YOUR_INSTANCE_NAME/YOUR_PROJECT_KEY
```

#### Example - Multiple global instance

The following will look for findings at `https://special-project-sonarqube.example.com` for the project of key `YOUR_PROJECT_KEY`.

##### Config

```yaml
sonarqube:
  instances:
    - name: default
      baseUrl: https://default-sonarqube.example.com
      apiKey: 123456789abcdef0123456789abcedf012
    - name: specialProject
      baseUrl: https://special-project-sonarqube.example.com
      apiKey: abcdef0123456789abcedf0123456789ab
```

##### Catalog

```yaml
apiVersion: backstage.io/v1alpha1
kind: Component
metadata:
  name: backstage
  annotations:
    sonarqube.org/project-key: specialProject/YOUR_PROJECT_KEY
```

If the `specialProject/` part is omitted (or replaced with `default/`), the Sonarqube instance of name `default` will be used.

The following config is an equivalent (but less clear) version of the above:

```yaml
sonarqube:
  baseUrl: https://default-sonarqube.example.com
  apiKey: 123456789abcdef0123456789abcedf012
  instances:
    - name: specialProject
      baseUrl: https://special-project-sonarqube.example.com
      apiKey: abcdef0123456789abcedf0123456789ab
```
