Number of contributers of 1 license

[Bam25 (Nam Nhu)]

Hi, I’m interested in the sonarqube developer edition. But there are still some open questions before the purchase. Since I’m very new to code scanning tools, here are my questions:

• We are working on a project that consists of several microservices. Each microservice have their own git repository. Can I scan multiple repositories with one sonarqube instance?
• How many contributors can be added to a sonarqube instance?
• Does Sonarqube also check the license of third party dependencies?
• Can all team members see the scan reports?

Thanks in advance!

Hi,

Welcome to the community!

@Bam25

We are working on a project that consists of several microservices. Each microservice have their own git repository. Can I scan multiple repositories with one sonarqube instance?

Yes, absolutely. Each repository will be treated as a “project” in SonarQube.

@Bam25

How many contributors can be added to a sonarqube instance?

There are no limits on this. You can have as many committers to a project and as many users in SonarQube as you need. We believe every project stakeholder should be able to see the analysis results.

@Bam25

Does Sonarqube also check the license of third party dependencies?

It does not. I believe there are some 3rd-party plugins that do, but you should be aware that you use 3rd-party plugins at your own risk.

@Bam25

Can all team members see the scan reports?

Yup! Team members, managers (okay, that may not be a good thing ), business partners &etc. It’s only a question of who you give permissions to.

 
HTH,
