Sonarqube XML file replacement

[vinodkumar4b9]

Hi Team,

Actually recently we have done with setup of Sonarqube enterprise version and we are planning to use Mule SonarQube Plugin (GitHub - mulesoft-catalyst/mule-sonarqube-plugin: The Mule SonarQube Plugin provides the capability to do code inspecting and taking project metrics from a mule project using SonarQube.) for our mule soft projects ,

And when I looked at the plugin setup we have observed that As the plugin inspects xml files and SonarQube already comes with an XML plugin, you have to modify this behavior so only one plugin inspects xml files. For that reason, you have to remove the xml extension from it.

As of now we have already scanned Javascript / HTML and other language projects and we might scan java projects also which will have xml files ,

Now the question I have regarding the above changes are

Is it OK to remove the prebuilt XML plugin and use the custom XML plugin or do we have any limitations in using the custom XML plugin instead of pre built XML plugin

Even if we use custom XML plugin , I hope there wont be any issues regarding the XML files that needs to be scanned for all other projects wherever required.

It would be helpful for us to provide some guidance regarding this as this will help us to decide on that whether to go ahead with this plugin or not?

Please let me know if you need any additional details

I have similar questions. We have multiple teams using our SonarQube instance. Mulesoft uses XML files but so do many other platforms like Salesforce. Will using the plugin limit or change the results those teams are expecting? Is this documented anywhere?
