How to configure Sonar to authenticate using SSL Client Certificates
apache, reverse-proxy, sonarqube, ssl-certificate
Solution
Couldn't find one out there. So I just made my own over a few days.
https://github.com/trajano/reverse-proxy-auth-sonar-plugin
Personally wasn't too thrilled to have to resort to dealing with Ruby on Rails within a Java app and learning the current API on the fly, but it seemed to work since the authentication is managed by Ruby on Rails rather than Java.
Problem
I have a reverse proxy that authenticates users using SSL Client Side certificates. I am trying to make Sonar V4 use the credentials that are passed in by the certificate from the reverse proxy. However, I haven't had much luck so far with Sonar. However, I did get this working with Jenkins and Trac already.
