It is straight foward to install via the Eclipse plugin manager using the "Install New Software" menu.DietPi is a lightweight Debian based Linux distribution for SBCs and server systems, with the option to install desktop environments, too. In this case, we are looking to use version 3.5. It has some restrictions, one of which is that it needs to be installed within an Eclipse running Java8 or above.įor our particular use case, we are looking to integrate the plugin with the Eclipse version that IBM Integration Bus is based on. It allows analysis of a number of languages, Java, Python, TypeScipt, Javascript, PHP and some others. The newer version 5.2, is the most up to date version and works with the latest versions of SonarQube (6 and 7). It is available here (and through the Eclipse Marketplace). There is some good material on SonarLint available here. We will focus on the Eclipse plugin called SonarLint. There are plugins for both IntelliJ and Eclipse. Sonarqube has a number of different IDE plugins to help allow smoother integration in a developers day to day development. SonarQube is the defacto standard code quality tool for many of organisations.


In one of my previous posts I was looking at the some of the benefits of tighter integration of the developers environment (IDE) with their organisations chosen code quality tools.
