Hey Sonar Community!
As one of your Community Managers, I’ve spent many hours helping users navigate SonarQube upgrades. Explaining the correct sequence of versions, especially when making significant jumps, can get complex!
That’s why I’m thrilled to announce a personal project I built a few months back to make this process a whole lot simpler: a SonarQube Upgrade Calculator!
My goal? To give you a one-click solution to determine your recommended upgrade path. No more digging through docs to try and piece together the right steps.
Here’s what it does for you:
- Calculate Upgrade Paths: Simply enter your current SonarQube version and edition, and the calculator will instantly map out the required intermediate versions for a smooth upgrade.
- Edition Compatibility Insights: Bonus! The calculator also helps you understand version compatibility when moving between Community Build and our commercial editions (Developer, Enterprise, Data Center). This wans’t an issue until this year when Community Build and our commercial editions stopped sharing the same versions.
Give it a spin here: https://frolicking-brigadeiros-1cba5a.netlify.app/
While this is a personal project for now, the ultimate vision is to integrate this functionality into our official SonarQube documentation. In the meantime, we’ll be linking to this post from the docs so you can start benefiting from it immediately.
Your feedback is always welcome.
Happy (and hopefully easier) upgrading!
