Maven settings.xml config for default Sonar db server

If you want to set a default Sonar configuration for all your Maven projects to run against, you can add your settings as a profile in the profiles section in your default settings.xml in either your ~/.m2 dir or your maven_install_dir/conf dir (depending which you’re using)

<profiles>
    <profile>
            <id>sonar</id>
            <activation>
                <activeByDefault>true</activeByDefault>
            </activation>
            <properties>
                <!-- MySQL -->
                <sonar.jdbc.url>
                    jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/sonar?useUnicode=true&amp;characterEncoding=utf8
                </sonar.jdbc.url>
                <sonar.jdbc.driver>com.mysql.jdbc.Driver</sonar.jdbc.driver>
                <sonar.jdbc.username>your_sonar_db_userid</sonar.jdbc.username>
                <sonar.jdbc.password>your_sonar_pwd</sonar.jdbc.password>
            </properties>
        </profile>
  </profiles>
