Information

The content on this page has moved: https://docs.sonarsource.com/sonarlint/intellij/

The SonarLint documentation has a new home! Please visit https://docs.sonarsource.com/sonarlint/intellij/ to check out the new documentation website. We’ve improved the documentation as a whole, integrated the four SonarLint IDE extension docs together, and moved everything under the sonarsource.com domain to share a home with the SonarQube docs (SonarCloud to come in Q3 of 2023).

These GitHub wikis will no longer be updated after 09.01.2023 but no worries, we’ll keep them around for a while for those running previous versions of SonarLint for IntelliJ.

Welcome to SonarLint for IntelliJ

SonarLint is an IDE extension that helps you detect and fix quality issues as you write code. Like a spell checker, SonarLint squiggles flaws so they can be fixed before committing code.

You can install it directly from the JetBrains Marketplace and it will then detect new bugs and quality issues as you code (for Java, JavaScript, PHP, Python and HTML).

SonarLint can optionally be bound to SonarQube or SonarCloud to provide additional features.

SonarLint is also available for Eclipse, Visual Studio, VS Code (the supported languages vary from IDE to IDE).
