Azure Pipelines

Qodana Scan

Qodana Scan is an Azure Pipelines task packed inside Qodana Azure Pipelines extension to scan your code with Qodana.

Usage

Basic configuration

After you've installed Qodana Azure Pipelines extension to your organization, to configure the Qodana Scan task, edit your azure-pipelines.yml file:

# Start with a minimal pipeline that you can customize to build and deploy your code.
# Add steps that build, run tests, deploy, and more:
# https://aka.ms/yaml

trigger:
  - main

pool:
  vmImage: ubuntu-latest

steps:
  - task: Cache@2  # Not required, but Qodana will open projects with cache faster.
    inputs:
      key: '"$(Build.Repository.Name)" | "$(Build.SourceBranchName)" | "$(Build.SourceVersion)"'
      path: '$(Agent.TempDirectory)/qodana/cache'
      restoreKeys: |
        "$(Build.Repository.Name)" | "$(Build.SourceBranchName)"
        "$(Build.Repository.Name)"
  - task: QodanaScan@1

Triggering this job depends on what type of repository you are using in Azure Pipelines.

The task can be run on any OS and x86_64/arm64 CPUs, but it requires the agent to have Docker installed. And since most of Qodana Docker images are Linux-based, the docker daemon must run Linux containers.

SARIF SAST Scans Tab

To display Qodana report summary in Azure DevOps UI in 'Scans' tab, install Microsoft DevLabs’ SARIF SAST Scans Tab extension.

You probably won't need other options than args: all other options can be helpful if you are configuring multiple Qodana Scan jobs in one workflow.
