SonarQube support for Visual Studio Code extension

SonarQube support for Visual Studio Code that provides on-the-fly feedback to developers on new bugs and quality issues injected into their code.
Non-official realization of SonarLint for VS Code.

Important

sonarlint utility will be downloaded (~30MB) on first-time activation of the extension.

TLDR: Quick Setup for Connected mode

• Create global config via SonarQube Inject: Create global config with credentials to servers and fill the values
• Create project config via SonarQube Inject: Create local sonarlint config with project binding and fill the values
• Update project bindings via SonarQube Inject: Update bindings to SonarQube server - it can take a lot of time (~1-2 min) on first binding

Extension commands

• SonarQube Inject: Analyze current project
  Runs full analysis on current project

• SonarQube Inject: Create global config with credentials to servers
  Creates and opens a global config file to set server and credentials info

• SonarQube Inject: Create local sonarlint config with project binding
  Creates and opens a local config file with current project info

• SonarQube Inject: Update bindings to SonarQube server
  Reconnects to SonarQube server and updates all links.

Connected mode

You can run analysis with connection to your SonarQube server.

To do this you need to create two small config files.
Create and edit first file - global config - via SonarQube Inject: Create global config with credentials to servers command.
Create and edit second file - procjet config - via SonarQube Inject: Create local sonarlint config with project binding command.
If you have any troubles or questions please follow the instructions on SonarLint website, section Connected mode, or start discussion in Issues page or Gitter.
Don't forget to run SonarQube Inject: Update bindings to SonarQube server command in VSC or sonarlint -u in command line at your project workspace to update server bindings.

Limitations

Currently works only with special sonarlint-cli version bundled with the extension. Source code can be found here.
