Overriding the default sonar lint rules with custom firmwide rules

Hi,
I’m not sure if this query has been answered already, sorry if it is.

I want to include the firm’s custom sonar cube rule set instead of the default sonar rule set distributed via Sonar lint.

Is there a way to achieve this? currently developers are setting up local sonar instance that is bit time consuming.

IDE : Jetbrains Intellij IDEA 2019.x

Appreciate your help! thanks

Hi @Felix_Kulanthaisamy

In connected mode, SonarLint will get analyzers and quality profiles (=rule set) from the server, including custom rules developed by your company. But this only works for SonarSource analyzers (not PMD, checkstyle, findbugs plugins for example) and if you have implemented your custom rules using the official Java APIs:
