How to install SonarQube on Raspberry PI

install SonarQube on Raspberry Pi

SonarQube does currently not support Raspberry PI. 

This is a workaround. It compiles a armv6 compatible version of the java-wrapper and configures sonarqube to use it. 

(Testet with Raspbian, wheezy, 3.6)

CHRIS: Also, start here: https://computingforgeeks.com/install-node-js-14-on-ubuntu-debian-linux/ (and carry on below when sonar fails to start)

Compile java-wrapper for ARMv6
============================
Download latest version of " wrapper_prerelease_XY.tar" from http://wrapper.tanukisoftware.com/downloads/ (for me 3.5.17 works)
Chris: https://wrapper.tanukisoftware.com/doc/english/download.jsp#stable
Chris: Specifically: https://download.tanukisoftware.com/wrapper/3.5.46/wrapper-linux-arm-64-3.5.46.tar.gz

Install ant: sudo apt-get install ant
run: export ANT_HOME=/usr/share/ant

CHRIS: Don't need to do this step
Install oracle-jdk: sudo apt-get install oracle-java7-jdk
run: JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/jdk-7-oracle-armhf/

Chris: Don't need to do this step
Un-tar source: tar -xvzf wrapper_prerelease_3.5.17.tar.gz
change to directory: cd wrapper_prerelease_3.5.17/
Build: ./build32.sh release

if everything went good, you find the wrapper-binary in the folder: dist
un-tar it: tar -xvzf wrapper-linux-armhf-32-3.5.17.tar.gz


Download and install SonarQube
=====================
Download SonarQube from: http://www.sonarqube.org/downloads/
unzip and move the directory to your desired location. 

change to the bin directory, and make a copy of the linux-x86-32 as "linux-pi"
cd /path/to/sonarqube/bin
cp -r linux-x86-32/ linux-pi



Replace java-Wrapper
=======================
copy the following files from the compiled java-wrapper into the sonarqube installation

/.../dist/wrapper-linux-armhf-32-3.5.17/bin/wrapper =>  /path/to/sonarqube/bin/linux-pi/bin/wrapper
/.../dist/wrapper-linux-armhf-32-3.5.17/bin/wrapper =>  /path/to/sonarqube/bin/linux-pi/bin/wrapper
/.../dist/wrapper-linux-armhf-32-3.5.17/lib/libwrapper.so => /path/to/sonarqube/bin/linux-pi/lib/libwrapper.so
/.../dist/wrapper-linux-armhf-32-3.5.17/lib/wrapper.jar => /path/to/sonarqube/lib/wrapper-3.5.X.jar



Set Java-Version for SonarQube
================================
edit the wrapper conf: sonarqube/conf/wrapper.conf
and set the java version: wrapper.java.command=/usr/lib/jvm/jdk-7-oracle-armhf/bin/java


Start SonarQube
====================
Start and test Sonar: 
sonarqube/bin/linux-pi/sonar.sh console

(on my pi this takes 5min!)

test it in the browser: http://localhost:9000
