Crowd Plugin for SonarQube

Build

This plugin allows the delegation of SonarQube authentication and authorization to Atlassian Crowd. The previous version of this plugin has been changed to provide the same functionality as the SonarQube LDAP plugin:

During the first authentication trial, if the password is correct, the SonarQube database is automatically populated with the new user. Each time a user logs into SonarQube, the username, the email and the groups this user belongs to that are refreshed in the SonarQube database.

Requirements

This plugin requires Atlassian Crowd 2.1.0 or later.

Installation

Go to Administration > Marketplace > Search for "Crowd" > Install > Restart the SonarQube server

Usage

  1. Configure the crowd plugin by editing the _SONARQUBEHOME/conf/sonar.properties file

  2. Restart the SonarQube server and check the log file for:

    org.sonar.INFO Security realm: Crowd ... o.s.p.c.CrowdRealm Crowd configuration is valid, connection test successful.

  3. Log into SonarQube

Configuration

PropertyDescriptionDefault valueMandatoryExample
sonar.security.realm To first try to authenticate against the external sytem. If the external system is not reachable or if the user is not defined in the external system, the authentication will be performed through the SonarQube internal system.
Available since SonarQube 3.6. It replaces the property sonar.authenticator.class usage.
None Yes Crowd (only possible value)
sonar.security.savePassword To save the user password in the SonarQube database. Then, users will be able to log into SonarQube even when the Crowd server is not reachable. false No
sonar.authenticator.createUsers By default, the SonarQube database is automatically populated when a new user logs into SonarQube. Setting this value to false, makes it mandatory for a System administrator to first declare a user through the SonarQube web interface before allowing this user to log into SonarQube. true No
sonar.security.updateUserAttributes If set to true, at each login, user's attributes (name and email) are re-synchronized. If set to false, user's attributes are not re-synchronized.
Note that if set to false, user's attributes are synchronized just once, at the very first login.
Available since SonarQube 3.6.
true No
sonar.authenticator.downcase Set to true when connecting to a Crowd server using a case-insensitive setup. false No
crowd.url URL of the Crowd server. Note that if you are using https with a self certified certificate, then you should install the server certificate into the Java truststore. Since version 2.0 of the plugin the url must be the root URL of your crowd instance and not the /services/ endpoint like for previous versions of the plugin. None Yes https://my.company.com/crowd/
crowd.application Application name defined in Crowd to authenticate your sonar instance. None No sonar
crowd.password Application password defined in Crowd to authenticate your sonar instance. None No
