We currently developing a plugin for Sonar (http://sonar.codehaus.org/). With the same time, we are working on a maven plugin for Dependometer.
Generally, the sonar plugin executes the Dependometer Maven Plugin and reads XML results from the maven build directory. It then saves selected Dependometer metrics to the Sonar DB and integrates them with existing Sonar features (e.g. Sonar radiator) as well as it offers some custom Sonar views to explore them. (At least, that is the plan right now)
Development Log:
Here are some screenshots of the first integration of Dependometer Metrics in Sonar:
On the dashboard a project metric is displayed, while in the components view you can inspect several Dependometer package and file metrics.
Next steps to do:
- export/import and display number of cyles
- metric refinement: define set of metric that should be registered in Sonar, edit best/worst values, maybe import non-numeric metrics, etc..
