Hello Everybody !

The first version of the SonarJ plugin is available for vote now.

Please follow the instructions on

http://docs.codehaus.org/display/SONAR/SonarJ+Plugin

If you want to try it together with the commercial license you can make use of a free SonarJ evaluation license. Otherwise you need our free
Sonar integration license (see documentation)

I forgot to mention, that you need to include the hello2morrow Maven repository to your repository list. I updated that in the documentation. If you want to try the plugin together with a SonarJ architecture description, you should know, that you can generate an initial SonarJ architecture file out of your existing pom. But due to a compatibility issue between Sonar and the SonarJ Maven plugin the SonarJ-Sonar plugin does not yet support the use of architecture description files on a multi module pom. (It works fine for Maven POM’s without modules) This issue will be solved after Sonar 1.12 is released.

Hello Alexander,

The plugin works smoothly. A couple of ideas to improve it in the future :
- there are really lots of metrics defined in it. There could be DB size issues at some point.
- would really be nice to be able to drill down

In the documentation, the repository should be a pluginRepository and look like  :
   <profile>
      <id>sonarj</id>
      <activation>
        <activeByDefault>true</activeByDefault>

      </activation>
      <pluginRepositories>
        <pluginRepository>
          <id>hello2morrow.maven.repository</id>
          <url>http://maven.hello2morrow.com/repository</url>
        </pluginRepository>
      </pluginRepositories>
   </profile>

In the source code, you might want to add a copyright and a (business friendly) license.

I have created a SONARJ-1.0 in Jira for this release. Can you set its status to released when done ?

You have my +1

Without the drill-down feature, there isn't any way to switch from the overview to the action plan and it's a bit frustrating. But that's a good beginning !

In a future version, you can imagine to use the Page extension point to only display the main metrics in the project Dashboard and breakdown all those metrics in a new "Architecture" page.

cheers,

Freddy

Hello Freddy !

The current idea of the plugin is to give early warnings about potential problems regarding structure and architecture. You are supposed to use SonarJ itself for the drilldown. The tool is way more powerful than a web based interface. But I agree that more drilldown would be helpful, so that is something I am going to work on for the future, as soon as I figured out, if it is possible to add plugin specific controller classes to the Rails part of your application. (I need to be able to query the db to get information about package cycles etc.)

Regards

Alexander

Hello Olivier !

The documentation is updated and all sources now have a license header (Apache 2). I also updated the license on the Wiki page.

Now I need one more +1 vote to go...

Alexander

If no one thinks differently, I will close the vote for the SonarJ plugin (technically it would run until tomorrow). I would like to get the release done today. There are three +1 votes.

Hi Olivier !

I’d like to change the status to released, but either I am too stupid or I do not have the rights to do it...
