Following up on Parallel analysis in MAVEN/SonarScanner feature suggestion would be parallel analysis in MAVEN plugin.

The ticket has relevant comments dating less than 3 years ago. Anyway, if we were to do that internally (within the task), it would make sense to multithread the execution of sensors. That way the checks and other computation done by the sensor can be split effectively and the scanner can still agg…

Last time I checked, parallel execution in Maven was broken. Also, typically you only run the scanner once (for the root module), so you would only see any gains if you are running other tasks at the same time. See comments here: https://jira.sonarsource.com/browse/MSONAR-7 (including a ticket in m…

Since the referenced ticket has been created roughly 10 years ago, there is a chance that MAVEN has fixed/changed how it internally does parallelization. However, it’s not necessarily MAVEN that can do parallelization, I believe it could also be done completely in a plugin like Sonar Scanner. Afte…

That’s right, the bug regarding parallel builds seems to have been fixed on maven side: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MNG-5965

I’d like to share the view that sonar-scanner itself should be able to do a multi-threaded scan of a codebase without a dependance on a specific build system like maven. I’ve reverted to using sonar-scanner.bat due to the fact that the maven plugin is fragile in my use-case. My expectation is that…

Hi, If you have errors with the scanner for maven please report them so that we can have a look at it. The sonar-scanner CLI and scanner for maven are a thin layer over common shared components.

@dmeneses I’ll create a thread to share my issues. I’d be really happy to have your feedback on how to overcome my current inability to run sonar successfully on our project when its done top-down.

We’re very much interested in Making sonar phase of our build run in parallel for the modules in the reactor. Our parallel build with a goal of install takes 6 minutes for a maven multi-module repo of 100 modules, While sonar:sonar goal is taking 45 mins to 1hr on a good day. We are very much inter…

I will explain one more time. The sonar plugin runs a single time for the project, involving all the modules, so it’s not possible to scan the modules in parallel from maven’s point of view. The reason is that SonarQube sees all the modules as a single project - it no longer supports modules. The …

Parallel execution of the maven scanner seems like a reasonable ask, is there a open SONAR ticket on the topic I should follow?
