• How to do SonarQube analysis via the Docker Image
• How to analyze C# application via the Docker Image

Getting Started

Running SonarQube on a local machine can sometimes be cumbersome due to the complex setup requirements, but Docker can make the process much simpler. Docker is a platform for building, shipping, and running container applications. Docker provides an easy-to-use interface for managing and deploying applications and can be used to run SonarQube.

In this article, we will explore the steps to run SonarQube via the Docker image:

Step 1: Install Docker

The first step to running SonarQube via Docker is to install Docker on your machine. Docker provides installation instructions for different operating systems on their website.

Step 2: Pull the SonarQube Image

Once Docker is installed, the next step is to pull the SonarQube image from the Docker Hub. You can do this by running the following command in the terminal:

docker pull sonarqube

This command will download the latest SonarQube image from the Docker Hub.

Step 3: Run the SonarQube Container
