SonarQube

SonarQube

Containerized code quality & security scanner (with Postgres backend). Runs as Docker service—scan repos, enforce standards. Prompt for port on run.

Lab Environment Only

This tool is intended for ephemeral, short-lived lab environments and is not hardened for production use.

System Requirements

This script is designed for Ubuntu LTS and derivatives (Linux Mint, Pop!_OS). Other distributions (RHEL, Fedora, Debian, ARM) are not supported.

Installation Command

curl -sL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ibtisam-iq/infra-bootstrap/main/scripts/services/sonarqube-cont.sh | sudo bash

What It Does
