SonarQube plugin changes?

[Jeff]

I recently am seeing this message in my Maven jobs in Jenkins that use the SonarQube plugin:

It is no longer recommended to use SonarQube maven builder. It is preferable to set up SonarQube in the build environment and use a standard Jenkins maven target.

Is there something explaining this change in detail and what the implications are?  The plugin website makes no mention of this that I could see and Googling the above message didn't yield anything of value.

Some questions I have include:

• Is the plugin being deprecated?  
• If so, why?
• Does that mean each job has to add Sonar to the POM and then run an additional post-build step?  (The beauty of the plugin is/was that I didn't need to do that in my 150+ Maven projects).
• What additional things need to be setup for SonarQube in the build environment beyond potential changes in the POM files?
• Any sample implementations we can use as a guide?

Thanks.

The plugin is not deprecated, only the sonar-maven job type. There are several ways of running an analysis with the plugin.
We feel that it is better to use Jenkins' standard maven target (in a Freestyle project or maven project) with the new functionality of injecting the sonarqube configuration as environment variables.
This ensures that you do not rely on our adaptation of the maven job, and instead use the standard one.

You can find the documentation, with an example here: http://docs.sonarqube.org/display/PLUG/Triggering+SonarQube+analysis+on+a+Jenkins+Job

As you can see in the doc, there is no need to change anything in the projects, not even in the SonarQube configuration in Jenkins.
In any case, we do not plan to remove the sonar maven job type anytime soon.

Thank you for the clarification.  Not sure how I missed the links on the plugin page.  I'll start getting it working the "better way". :-)
