Launch SonarQube as a Service

Manual

1. setup environment variables:

export SONAR_VERSION=6.4
export SONARQUBE_HOME=/opt/sonarqube
export SONARQUBE_JDBC_USERNAME=sonar
export SONARQUBE_JDBC_PASSWORD=sonar
export SONARQUBE_JDBC_URL=

2. install gpg & unzip:

sudo dnf install -y gpg unzip

3. run setup.sh in sudo:

#!/bin/sh -

# set server encryption
set -x
gpg --keyserver ha.pool.sks-keyservers.net --recv-keys F1182E81C792928921DBCAB4CFCA4A29D26468DE

# fetch, unzip and deploy the server
cd /opt
curl -o sonarqube.zip -fSL https://sonarsource.bintray.com/Distribution/sonarqube/sonarqube-$SONAR_VERSION.zip
curl -o sonarqube.zip.asc -fSL https://sonarsource.bintray.com/Distribution/sonarqube/sonarqube-$SONAR_VERSION.zip.asc
gpg --batch --verify sonarqube.zip.asc sonarqube.zip
unzip sonarqube.zip
mv sonarqube-$SONAR_VERSION sonarqube

4. set up a systemd unit for Sonar service

[Unit]
Description=SonarQube Server
Documentation=https://docs.sonarqube.org/display/SONAR/Documentation
After=network.target network-online.target
Wants=network-online.target

[Service]
Type=forking
ExecStart=/opt/sonarqube/bin/linux-x86-64/sonar.sh start
ExecStop=/opt/sonarqube/bin/linux-x86-64/sonar.sh stop
ExecReload=/opt/sonarqube/bin/linux-x86-64/sonar.sh restart
PIDFile=/opt/sonarqube/bin/linux-x86-64/SonarQube.pid

5. run systemctl to launch the service

sudo systemctl daemon-reload
sudo systemctl start sonar
