# Scan your code with SonarCloud
> Using this GitHub Action, scan your code with [SonarCloud](https://sonarcloud.io/) to detects bugs, vulnerabilities and code smells in more than 25 programming languages!
<img src="./images/SonarCloud-72px.png">
## Requirements
* Have an account on SonarCloud. [Sign up for free now](https://sonarcloud.io/sessions/init/github) if it's not already the case!
* The repository to analyze is set up on SonarCloud. [Set it up](https://sonarcloud.io/projects/create) in just one click.
## Usage
Project metadata, including the location to the sources to be analyzed, must be declared in the file `sonar-project.properties` in the base directory:
```
sonar.organization=<replace with your SonarCloud organization key>
sonar.projectKey=<replace with the key generated when setting up the project on SonarCloud>
// relative paths to source directories. More details and properties are described
// in https://sonarcloud.io/documentation/project-administration/narrowing-the-focus/
sonar.sources=.
```
The workflow, usually declared in `.github/main.workflow`, looks like:
```
workflow "Main Worflow" {
on = "push"
resolves = "SonarCloud Trigger"
}
action "SonarCloud Trigger" {
uses = "sonarsource/sonarcloud-github-action@master"
secrets = ["GITHUB_TOKEN", "SONAR_TOKEN"]
}
```
### Secrets
- `SONAR_TOKEN` **Required** this is the token used to authenticate access to SonarCloud. You can generate a token on your [Security page in SonarCloud](https://sonarcloud.io/account/security/). You can set the `SONAR_TOKEN` environment variable in the "Secrets" settings page of your repository.
## Example of pull request analysis

## Do not use this GitHub action if you are in the following situations
* Your code is built with Maven: run 'org.sonarsource.scanner.maven:sonar' during the build
* Your code is built with Gradle: use the SonarQube plugin for Gradle during the build
* You want to analyze a .NET solution: use the [SonarCloud Azure DevOps Extension](https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=SonarSource.sonarcloud) to analyze your code on SonarCloud with Azure Pipelines
* You want to analyze C/C++ code: rely on our [Travis-CI extension](https://docs.travis-ci.com/user/sonarcloud/) and look at [our sample C/C++ project](https://github.com/SonarSource/sq-com_example_c-sqscanner-travis)
