cargo-sonar

cargo-sonar help you to use the tools of the Rust community and report the information to Sonarcloud (or Sonarqube). You can even set it up in a Continuous Integration so this report is automatically forwarded to Sonar.

Installation

From source

git clone https://gitlab.com/woshilapin/cargo-sonar cd cargo-sonar cargo install --path . cargo sonar --help

From crates.io

cargo install cargo-sonar cargo sonar --help

From Docker/Podman

export CONTAINER_ENGINE=docker # or CONTAINER_ENGINE=podman ${CONTAINER_ENGINE} pull docker.io/woshilapin/cargo-sonar ${CONTAINER_ENGINE} run docker.io/woshilapin/cargo-sonar --help

Use

cargo-sonar is only a tool to convert reports from other tools into Sonar compatible report (see Supported tools). Once the Sonar report is generated, it can be sent to sonarcloud.io or any SonarQube instance with sonar-scanner.

First generate a report from any supported tool, for example clippy.

cargo clippy --message-format > my-clippy-report.json

Then convert this report.

cargo sonar --clippy --clippy-path my-clippy-report.json

This creates a file sonar.json. You can now configure sonar-scanner with sonar.externalIssuesReportPaths=sonar.json in your sonar-project.properties file.

Supported tools

cargo-clippy

cargo clippy --message-format=json -- --warn clippy::pedantic > clippy.json

cargo-audit

cargo audit --json > audit.json

Examples

The best example out there at the moment is the project cargo-sonar itself. In the CI, you can see the generation of the clippy report and the audit report. Then, cargo sonar is executed followed by sonar-scanner with the sonar-project.properties configuration file. The final result can be seen on sonarcloud.io.
