Customizing Sonar to Fit Your Needs
Sonar is a super-radiator for code quality and as such, you can expect it brings value to all stakeholders in a development group. To achieve this, Sonar must be able to show only relevant information in a certain context and shut off the noise to facilitate investigation and decision making. In this post, I will show how to customize Sonar to fit your needs by:
- creating filters that choose components and metrics to report on
- building your own widgets and dashboards
- selecting default dashboards displayed
- using the notification services and stay tuned
To start customizing Sonar, you first need to log in. Read the rest of this page »

What is coming up for Sonar in 2013 ?
I recently wrote a post to list what was accomplished on the platform last year. Today, I am doing the continuation with even more exciting stuff: what we are going to do this year! What will be the main innovations? How the ecosystem will evolve? Which technical challenges are we going to face?
Cartography
This is our most ambitious project for the year and I should start by explaining what it is about. Behind this word, we group many features based on the dependencies between methods, attributes, classes, files, modules, projects, teams, departments… Here are the first use cases that we’ll cover:
- Cross-sources navigation: ability to click in the UI on a method call to see its declaration, on an identifier to see its declaration, to click on a COBOL COPY preprocessing directive to see its content, to click on a C function declaration to know where this function is used…
- Ability to find out which files include a C library file, a COBOL Copybook…
From there, we aim to provide the tooling to define and manage the architecture of an overall application portfolio. But I am talking about 2014 already… Read the rest of this page »
Looking Back at 2012 Sonar Platform Accomplishments
A new year provides a good opportunity to look back at what was achieved the previous year. This is what I am going to do in this post for the Sonar platform.
Let’s start with a short version of this retrospective. Last year was made of:
- 6 releases of Sonar platform
- 200 releases of ecosystem products
- 65,000 downloads of Sonar
- 12,000+ messages on mailing lists
So I suppose, we can call this a pretty active year for the community. Now, the longer version: Read the rest of this page »
