New Sonarqube plugins for Coffee scripts, HipChat and TAP files

[emers...@yahoo.com]

Hi,

I apologise for ignoring possible official ways to do this - this is my first time promoting any sonarqube plugins (and first time using github), so I ask for you indulgence if something is not the proper way.

I have published some plugins for sonarqube, namely

• sonar-coffeelint-plugin - for analysing coffee scripts, based on rules defined by http://coffeelint.org
  
• sonar-hipchat-plugin - for sending messages to HipChat after a sonarqube analysis is done
  
• sonar-tap-parser - for converting .tap files into the generic test xml for sonarqube
  

As said, these are my first attempts of a) plugins and b) committing things with github - any feedback is appreciated

Hi,

This is a pretty good first entry! :-)

On the HipChat plugin, you might want to take "Sonar" out of the configuration category. (It's a little redundant. ;-) ) You might also consider making explicit that the room value should be an API token. I figured it out, but it wouldn't hurt to spell it out. 

Also, some might consider the Authentication token to be sensitive data. You should consider using a password input for it.

Other than those mostly minor points, well done! I've added this to the docs.

Regarding the CoffeeLint plugin, I'm confused. How is this supposed to work? I would have expected to find a CoffeeLint rules repository listed with all the relevant rules available to add to my profile. (My server log is clean, so I don't think this was an error loading the plugin.) And BTW, I see that you created a default profile, but it's empty (and so pointless) for me...?

I haven't added this one to the docs yet. I'd like to understand it better first.

Regarding the TAP format converter... cool! I haven't tested it, but I have added it to the Other Contributions page.

Hi,

Your sonar-hipchat-plugin is an interesting idea.
It would be much convenient to have a link on SQ in the message issued to HipChat.
Looking forward for coming versions :-)

Regards,
