What would be the best way to get the lines of code for a project via the SonarQube API?

Version
6.7.1.35068

None of these endpoints are available but this is the output from our instance.

  • This is the api url to get the lines of code of a project:

http://{your_sonar_url}/api/measures/component?componentKey={your_project_key}&metricKeys=ncloc

  • And here is the basic python code for calling web api and getting LoC metric result:
import json
from base64 import b64encode
from urllib.parse import urlencode
from urllib.request import urlopen, Request

user, password = 'admin', 'xxxxx'
data = urlencode(dict(From='+17035551212', To='+17035551212', Body='test')).encode('ascii')
headers = {'Authorization': b'Basic ' + b64encode((user + ':' + password).encode('utf-8'))}

api_url = "http://_{your_sonar_url}_/api/measures/component?componentKey=_{your_project_key}_&metricKeys=ncloc"
api_response = urlopen(Request(api_url, data, headers)).read().decode()

for project in json.loads(api_response)["component"]["measures"]:
    lines_of_code = project["value"]
print(lines_of_code)
