# SonarQube Quality Gate check [![QA](https://github.com/SonarSource/sonarqube-quality-gate-action/actions/workflows/run-qa.yml/badge.svg)](https://github.com/SonarSource/sonarqube-quality-gate-action/actions/workflows/run-qa.yml)
Check the Quality Gate of your code with [SonarQube](https://www.sonarqube.org/) to ensure your code meets your own quality standards before you release or deploy new features.

SonarQube is the leading product for Continuous Code Quality & Code Security. It supports most popular programming languages, including Java, JavaScript, TypeScript, C#, Python, C, C++, and many more.
## Requirements
A previous step must have run an analysis on your code.
Read more information on how to analyze your code [here](https://docs.sonarqube.org/latest/analysis/github-integration/)
## Usage
The workflow YAML file will usually look something like this::
```yaml
on:
# Trigger analysis when pushing in master or pull requests, and when creating
# a pull request.
push:
branches:
- master
pull_request:
types: [opened, synchronize, reopened]
name: Main Workflow
jobs:
sonarqube:
runs-on: ubuntu-latest
steps:
- uses: actions/checkout@v2
with:
# Disabling shallow clone is recommended for improving relevancy of reporting
fetch-depth: 0
# Triggering SonarQube analysis as results of it are required by Quality Gate check
- name: SonarQube Scan
uses: sonarsource/sonarqube-scan-action@master
env:
SONAR_TOKEN: ${{ secrets.SONAR_TOKEN }}
SONAR_HOST_URL: ${{ secrets.SONAR_HOST_URL }}
- name: SonarQube Quality Gate check
uses: sonarsource/sonarqube-quality-gate-action@master
# Force to fail step after specific time
timeout-minutes: 5
env:
SONAR_TOKEN: ${{ secrets.SONAR_TOKEN }}
```
Make sure to set up `timeout-minutes` property in your step, to avoid wasting action minutes per month (see above example).
When using this action with [sonarsource/sonarqube-scan](https://github.com/SonarSource/sonarqube-scan-action) action or with [C/C++ code analysis](https://docs.sonarqube.org/latest/analysis/languages/cfamily/) you don't have to provide `scanMetadataReportFile` input, otherwise you should alter the location of it.
Typically, report metadata file for different scanners can vary and can be located in:
- `target/sonar/report-task.txt` for Maven projects
- `build/sonar/report-task.txt` for Gradle projects
- `.sonarqube/out/.sonar/report-task.txt` for .NET projects
Example usage:
```yaml
- name: SonarQube Quality Gate check
uses: sonarsource/sonarqube-quality-gate-action@master
with:
scanMetadataReportFile: target/sonar/report-task.txt
```
### Environment variables
- `SONAR_TOKEN` – **Required** this is the token used to authenticate access to SonarQube. You can read more about security tokens [here](https://docs.sonarqube.org/latest/user-guide/user-token/). You can set the `SONAR_TOKEN` environment variable in the "Secrets" settings page of your repository, or you can add them at the level of your GitHub organization (recommended).
