#Bonita Extract Sources

Introduction

Bonitasoft is a software to create a BPM application all-in-one, from back-end to front end, all in the same environment. We can drag tasks into diagrams or widgets into web-pages with beautiful rendering. We can add some code (groovy, javascript, css, html) to be closer to our needs.

What's about this specific code insides diagrams and web-pages ? How do I know the level of quality of this code ? How can I detect potential misconception, code smell or bug ?

This is what Bonita Extract Sources provide you : A way to analyse code hidden in diagrams or web-pages

We will see how we can connect Bonitasoft with SonarQube

Conception

The project is a script-like compile in an executable jar. This script parse bonita workspace and find resources with hidden code. Then an extraction of code is executed to a new directory called extracted_sources

Supported bonita extractions are :

• groovy script extracted from diagrams
• html extracted from web widgets
• javascript extracted from web pages
• javascript extracted from web fragments

Compatibility version

This version in tested with Bonitasoft 7.2.x

Usage

Two way to get executable jar bonita-extract-sources-X.X.jar :

1. maven clean install
2. get jar from GitHub release

Two way to use it :

1. java -jar bonita-extract-sources-X.X.jar /myPath/WorskpspacePath
2. cd /myPath/WorskpspacePath' and 'java -jar BONITA_EXTRACT_HOME/bonita-extract-sources-X.X.jar .

Be careful : do not to commit extracted files

Analyse bonita code with SonarQube

The next step is to analyse code with SonarQube :

In your Bonita project, copy the file sonar-project.properties and update following variables:

• rest-api projects (my-api-rest-1,my-api-rest-2,my-api-rest-3)
• sonar.projectVersion
• sonar.projectKey
• sonar.projectName

Download and install your Instance SonarQube and the tools SonarQube Scanners : https://www.sonarqube.org/downloads/

In your SonarQube instance (localhost:9000 by default), you have to install following plugs-in :

• Svn plug-in
• Groovy plug-in
• SonarJs Plug-in
• Web Plug-in

With the scanner, analyse your bonita project (it will read sonar-project.properties) and generate report to you sonarQube instance.

Bonitasoft is now connected to SonarQube

Adding RestAPI test and coverage to SonarQube

The file exemplePomWithCoverageJacoco.xml contain a example to add coverage to your api rest extension. Specific coverage with Jacoco description is delimited by <!-- Begin Analysis Jacoco --> and <!-- End Analysis Jacoco -->

Before running SonarQube analysis do a maven clean install or compile with BonitaStudio.

Continuous integration

This new bricks works well with a continuous integration. Orchestration is :

1. extract sources
2. mvn clean install for all rest api extension
3. run sonarqube analysis
4. enjoy reports

Previous orchestration has been tested with jenkins and works well.
