Unparsable TypeScript file generates an error even when excluded

SonarQube Server / Community Build

In a C# test project, I have an unparsable JavaScript file as part of the test data. The SonarQubeAnalyze@5 task in a DevOps Server 2022u1 YAML pipeline, provided by SonarQube DevOps extension 5.19.1, using SonarQube Enterprise v10.3 (build 82913), reports an error on that file, even though the literal path to the file is in sonar.exclusions:

ERROR: Failed to parse file [test/Company.Product.Component.Subcomponent.Tests/Data_builderror/Modules/OneColumnTextModule/OneColumnTextModule.js] at line 7: Unexpected token (7:20)

I tried fiddling with the sonar.exclusions pattern, but always got the same result.

This issue popped up after we upgraded from Node 12 to Node 20 and this part of the analysis started working again.

The rest of the analysis runs OK, but this error spams the pipeline run overview. How can I get rid of the error?

The unparsable file (see the missing render() { return ( above the first div):

import React, { Component } from 'react';

import "./OneColumnTextModule.scss";

export default class OneColumnTextModule extends Component {
  
                    <div className="row">
                        <div className="col-12">
                            <div className="background-wrapper">
                                <div className="row">
                                    <div className="col-0 col-sm-2 col-md-3"></div>
                                    <div className="col-12 col-sm-8 col-md-6">
                                        <div className="body-wrapper">
                                            <div className="title-text">{this.props.viewModel.title}</div>
                                            <p>
                                                {this.props.viewModel.body}
                                            </p>
                                        </div>
                                    </div>
                                    <div className="col-0 col-sm-2 col-md-3"></div>
                                </div>
                            </div>
                        </div>
                    </div>
                </div>
            </div>
        );
    }
}

Hi,

Welcome to the community!

Unfortunately exclusions work a little differently with the SonarScanner for .NET.

So from the other side, do you expect this file to be unparsable? Or is there something to fix in our parsing?

Thanks for pointing me to the docs. I did not know about this behavior of SonarScanner for .NET.

I expect the file to be unparsable – SonarQube’s parsing is OK.

For context: The service tested by this project compiles and renders React components so that another service may compose complete pages. The services are components of a static site generator. The unparsable file is a piece of test data for a negative test case.

Hi,

Thanks for getting back to me.

Unfortunately, I don’t think we can go much further with this. It’s fortunate the parsing error doesn’t kill analysis.

And I’ll raise this to the Product Managers so they’re aware this behavior can be a problem.
