sonar-pipeline

Pipeline to deploy sonarqube server to kubernetes. Currently it only supports updating sonarqube's image. Other configuration requires manual update via helm.

First Time Deployment

To simplify the deployment, we are using helm, the package manager for k8s, to bundle all we need for sonar and deploy them all at once. Example values.yaml can be found under config-example folder. The actual config files are stored somewhere else secretly.

• Prerequisite:

  1. install helm client on your dev machine: brew install kubernetes-helm
  2. init helm in k8s cluster: https://docs.helm.sh/using_helm

• Deployment:

  1. Switch to the desired context

  kubectl config use-context desired-cluster-context

  2. Deploy beta sonar using sonarqube chart

  helm install --name beta -f beta-values.yaml stable/sonarqube

  3. Deploy prod sonar using sonarqube chart

  helm install --name prod -f values.yaml stable/sonarqube

  After deployment, you should be able to see such a set of resources created for sonarqube, e.g. for beta:

  ==> v1/Service
  beta-postgresql  
  beta-sonarqube   
  
  ==> v1beta1/Deployment
  beta-postgresql  
  beta-sonarqube   
  
  ==> v1beta1/Ingress
  beta-sonarqube
  
  ==> v1/Pod(related)
  beta-postgresql
  beta-sonarqube
  
  ==> v1/Secret
  beta-postgresql
  
  ==> v1/ConfigMap
  beta-sonarqube-config         
  beta-sonarqube-install-plugins  
  beta-sonarqube-startup          
  beta-sonarqube-tests            
  
  ==> v1/PersistentVolumeClaim
  beta-postgresql   
  beta-sonarqube

• Manual update in sonar UI:

  For the following config, it's not configurable during boot time. Need to do it after sonar is up and running.

  1. Go to ${your-sonar-host} and log in as admin.
  2. Go to ${your-sonar-host}/account/security: change the default admin password
  3. Go to ${your-sonar-host}/admin/permissions: unselect Execute Analysis and Create Projects for group Anyone

  Notes: all these configurations will be persistent as long as the PVC(persistent volume claim) is not deleted.

Update config

helm upgrade -f beta-values.yaml beta stable/sonarqube
helm upgrade -f values.yaml prod stable/sonarqube

List helm releases

helm list

Delete the whole sonar system

Be careful about running this command, it will wipe out everything for sonar even the PVC.

helm del --purge beta
helm del --purge beta
