Using Powershell to Execute sonar-scanner in a Jenkins Declarative Pipeline

[joe.d.cava...@gmail.com]

Hello,

I am attempting to use powershell rather than bat for withSonarQubeEnv() in a Declarative Pipeline for Jenkins.

NOTE: I use the command line for an Angular Project to be submitted with Typescript files (and the corresponding linting file, which is not included in the below scripts yet). I prefer not having a properties file since all the applications will be set up similar and I would like to make the below a global library eventually. 

               stage('SonarQube') {

        steps {

    withSonarQubeEnv('SonarQube Corp Server') {

                            /* powershell '''

                                sonar-scanner -Dsonar.login=$env:SONAR_AUTH_TOKEN -Dsonar.host.url=$env:SONAR_HOST_URL `

                                    -Dsonar.projectKey="NAWM_$env:PROJECT_NAME" -Dsonar.projectName="NAWM_$env:PROJECT_NAME" -Dsonar.projectVersion=$env:ComponentVersion `

                                    -Dsonar.projectBaseDir=$env:WORKSPACE -Dsonar.home=$env:WORKSPACE `

                                    -Dsonar.sourceEncoding=UTF-8 `

                                    -Dsonar.exclusions="**\\node_modules\\**,**\\dist\\**,**\\src\\**\\*.spec.ts,**\\app\\swagger\\**" `

                                    -Dsonar.sources=src\\ -Dsonar.verbose=true

                            ''' */

                            bat '''

                                sonar-scanner -Dsonar.login=%SONAR_AUTH_TOKEN% -Dsonar.host.url=%SONAR_HOST_URL% ^

                                    -Dsonar.projectKey="NAWM_%%PROJECT_NAME%" -Dsonar.projectName="NAWM_%PROJECT_NAME%" -Dsonar.projectVersion=%ComponentVersion% ^

                                    -Dsonar.projectBaseDir=%WORKSPACE% -Dsonar.home=%WORKSPACE% ^

                                    -Dsonar.sourceEncoding=UTF-8 ^

                                    -Dsonar.exclusions="**\\node_modules\\**,**\\dist\\**,**\\src\\**\\*.spec.ts,**\\app\\swagger\\**" ^

                                    -Dsonar.sources=src\\ -Dsonar.verbose=true

                            ''' 

    }

    }

    }

What is interesting is the powershell version of the script has errors with reading in the first parameter of the function vs the bat file (which executes). I get this regardless of the first option I use. The error for the powershell version is as follows : 

[SonarQube] Injecting SonarQube environment variables using the configuration: SonarQube Corp Server

Thoughts on why this might be? I didn't know if this would be a SonarQube plugin issue or the powershell maintainers for Jenkins. I thought I would try here first in case I am missing something obvious. 

Thanks!

Looks like Sonarqube does not make the URL available to powershell at all in Jenkins. The below code results in an empty url and token when executing from a Powershell command within the UI as well.
How would I open a support request ticket for an issue like this?

Write-Output "Sonar url - $env:SONAR_HOST_URL"

SonarQube.Scanner.MSBuild.exe begin /k:"$env:NAMEOFPRODUCT" /n:"NAWM_$env:NAMEOFPRODUCT" /v:"$env:MAJORVERSION.$env:BUILD_NUMBER" /d:sonar.host.url=$env:SONAR_HOST_URL /d:sonar.login=$env:SONAR_AUTH_TOKEN

dotnet msbuild /t:Rebuild

SonarQube.Scanner.MSBuild.exe end /d:sonar.host.url=$env:SONAR_HOST_URL /d:sonar.login=$env:SONAR_AUTH_TOKEN
