Exclude javascript files from sonar's "Coverage on new code"

Question

In SonarQube, "Coverage on new code" considers java and js files for my java web applications. Is it possible to exclude js files from it?

I'm using:

• SonarQube-6.7.1 community edition.
• Jacoco maven plugin for code-coverage on java codes.

Answer 1

For jacoco maven plugin just add the configuration to exclude the files as below:

<plugin>
    <groupId>org.jacoco</groupId>
    <artifactId>jacoco-maven-plugin</artifactId>
    <version>0.7.9</version>
    <extensions>true</extensions>
    <configuration>
        <excludes>
            <exclude>org/yates/webapp/web/config/*.class</exclude>
        </excludes>
    </configuration>
</plugin>

For SonarQube You can set the sonar.exclusions property

sonar.exclusions=src/main/java/org/sonar/*

Refer the documentation below: https://docs.sonarqube.org/display/SONAR/Narrowing+the+Focus#NarrowingtheFocus-IgnoreFiles

UPDATE:

For SONAR coverage exclusions:

<properties>
    <sonar.coverage.exclusions>foo/**/*,**/bar/*</sonar.coverage.exclusions>
</properties>
