SonarQube monitoring integration

Our SonarQube integration monitors the performance of your SonarQube application, helping you diagnose and optimize the code. Our SonarQube integration makes use of our infrastructure agent, PosgreSQL integration, NRI-Prometheus, and NRI-JMX and gives you a pre-built dashboard with your most important SonarQube metrics.

New Relic SonarQube dashboard

After setting up our SonarQube integration, we give you a dashboard for your SonarQube metrics.

Install the infrastructure agent

To use the SonarQube integration, you need to first install the infrastructure agent on the same host. All our on-host integrations require the infrastructure agent, which helps expose and report metrics to New Relic.

Install the PostgreSQL integration

To use the SonarQube integration, you need to first install our PostgreSQL integration.

  1. Check out our PostgreSQL integration requirements in our documentation before installing the integration. Confirm your compatibility, then return to this doc.
  2. Open PostgreSQL Quickstart page PostgreSQL quickstart installation.
  3. Click Install now to start the PostgreSQL quickstart installation.

Configure NRI-Prometheus

  1. Run the following command to create a NRI-Prometheus config file:

    bash
    $
    touch /etc/newrelic-infra/integrations.d/nri-prometheus-config.yml
  2. Paste the following snippet into the new config file. Be sure to update the cluster_name and urls with your relevant fields:

    integrations:
    - name: nri-prometheus
    config:
    # When standalone is set to false nri-prometheus requires an infrastructure agent to work and send data. Defaults to true
    standalone: false
    # When running with infrastructure agent emitters will have to include infra-sdk
    emitters: infra-sdk
    # The name of your cluster. It's important to match other New Relic products to relate the data.
    cluster_name: "YOUR_CLUSTER_NAME"
    targets:
    - description: Sonarqube metrics list
    urls: ["http://user_name:password@YOUR_HOST_IP:9000/api/monitoring/metrics"]
    # tls_config:
    # ca_file_path: "/etc/etcd/etcd-client-ca.crt"
    # cert_file_path: "/etc/etcd/etcd-client.crt"
    # key_file_path: "/etc/etcd/etcd-client.key"
    # Whether the integration should run in verbose mode or not. Defaults to false
    verbose: false
    # Whether the integration should run in audit mode or not. Defaults to false.
    # Audit mode logs the uncompressed data sent to New Relic. Use this to log all data sent.
    # It does not include verbose mode. This can lead to a high log volume, use with care
    audit: false
    # The HTTP client timeout when fetching data from endpoints. Defaults to 30s.
    # scrape_timeout: "30s"
    # Length in time to distribute the scraping from the endpoints
    scrape_duration: "5s"
    # Number of worker threads used for scraping targets.
    # For large clusters with many (>400) endpoints, slowly increase until scrape
    # time falls between the desired `scrape_duration`.
    # Increasing this value too much will result in huge memory consumption if too
    # many metrics are being scraped.
    # Default: 4
    # worker_threads: 4
    # Whether the integration should skip TLS verification or not. Defaults to false
    insecure_skip_verify: true
    timeout: 10s

Install and configure the JMX integration

To use the SonarQube integration, you need to also install our JMX monitoring integration. The JMX integration scrapes SonarQube data, which we will later turn into dashboards and queryable data.

  1. Install our JMX monitoring integration.

  2. Add the following code snippet to /opt/sonarqube/conf/sonar.properties:

    # SonarQube Web Server JMX configuration.
    sonar.web.javaOpts=-Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote \
    -Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.port=9010 \
    -Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.authenticate=false \
    -Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.ssl=false
    # SonarQube Compute Engine JMX configuration.
    sonar.ce.javaOpts=-Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote \
    -Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.port=9011 \
    -Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.authenticate=false \
    -Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.ssl=false
  3. Add the following code snippet to /etc/newrelic-infra/integrations.d/jvm-sonarqube-web-metrics.yml/:

    collect:
    - domain: SonarQube
    event_type: JVMSampleSonarQubeWebMetrics

    - PoolRemoveAbandonedTimeoutSeconds
    - query: name=SonarQube
    attributes:

    interval: 15s
    labels:
    env: staging

Forward SonarQube logs to New Relic

Follow these steps to forward SonarQube logs to New Relic:

  1. Create a log file named logging.yml in the following path:

    bash
    $
    cd /etc/newrelic-infra/logging.d
  2. Add the following script to the logging.yml file:

    logs:
    - name: sonar_logs
    file: /opt/sonarqube/logs/sonar.log
    attributes:
    logtype: sonar_logs
    - name: ce_logs
    file: /opt/sonarqube/logs/ce.log
    attributes:
    logtype: sonar_ce_logs
    - name: es_logs
    file: /opt/sonarqube/logs/es.log
    attributes:
    logtype: sonar_es_logs
    - name: web_logs
    file: /opt/sonarqube/logs/web.log
    attributes:
    logtype: sonar_web_logs

Restart the New Relic infrastructure agent

Restart your infrastructure agent:

bash
$
sudo systemctl restart newrelic-infra.service

In a couple of minutes, your application will send metrics to one.newrelic.com.

Find your data

You can choose our pre-built dashboard template named SonarQube to monitor your SonarQube application metrics. Follow these steps to use our pre-built dashboard template:

  1. From one.newrelic.com, go to the + Integrations & Agents page.

  2. Click on Dashboards.

  3. In the search bar, type sonarqube.

  4. The SonarQube dashboard should appear. Click on it to install it.

    Your SonarQube dashboard is considered a custom dashboard and can be found in the Dashboards UI. For docs on using and editing dashboards, see our dashboard docs.

    Here's a few example NRQL queries for Postfix data:
