Use SonarLint
in Visual Studio
- Version 4.23
- Released July 2020
Detect Code Quality and Security issues on the fly in:
Benefit from a full integration
Review highlighted issues in the editor
Review overall issues in the Error List panel
Access rule descriptions
And go further
Out-of-the-box, SonarLint reports issues on the files you're editing.
There are a few more options you can use if you wish.
Live analysis of C# and VB.NET
Out of the box you get analysis of C# and VB.NET as you type. To analyze all files, enable Visual Studio full solution analysis (see here) under the usual Visual Studio Analyze menu.
Fine tune your rules
SonarLint is integrated with Microsoft Code Analysis framework, so rules for C# and VB.NET can be fine-tuned in the .ruleset file used by your project. The set of active rules can also be tuned for JavaScript, C++ and C.
Find logs if you need them
In the Output panel, show output from SonarLint. Verbosity can be increased in the VS Options, under the SonarLint menu item.
SonarLint can be used together with SonarQube or SonarCloud, allowing your team
to always be on the same page when it comes to Code Quality and Security.
Your team on the same page
- All the team uses the same code quality
and security rules - Issues exclusions are shared at team level
- Team members are notified if a breaking
change makes it in the main branch
I'm ready to activate this in SonarLint!
