org.sonar.api.batch.rule
Class Checks<C>

java.lang.Object
  org.sonar.api.batch.rule.Checks<C>

public class Checks<C>
extends Object

Instantiates checks (objects that provide implementation of coding rules) that use sonar-check-api annotations. Checks are selected and configured from the Quality profiles enabled on the current module.

Example of check class:

   @org.sonar.check.Rule(key = "S001")
   public class CheckS001 {
     @org.sonar.check.RuleProperty
     private String pattern;

     public String getPattern() {
       return pattern;
     }
 }
 

How to use:

   public class MyRuleEngine extends BatchExtension {
     private final CheckFactory checkFactory;

     public MyRuleEngine(CheckFactory checkFactory) {
       this.checkFactory = checkFactory;
     }

     public void execute() {
       Checks checks = checkFactory.create("my-rule-repository");
       checks.addAnnotatedChecks(CheckS001.class);
       // checks.all() contains an instance of CheckS001
       // with field "pattern" set to the value specified in
       // the Quality profile

       // Checks are used to detect issues on source code

       // checks.ruleKey(obj) can be used to create the related issues
     }
   }
 

It replaces org.sonar.api.checks.AnnotationCheckFactory
