creedengo-java

February 15, 2026 · View on GitHub

creedengo is a collective project aiming to reduce environmental footprint of software at the code level. The goal of the project is to provide a list of static code analyzers to highlight code structures that may have a negative ecological impact: energy and resources over-consumption, "fatware", shortening terminals' lifespan, etc.

creedengo is based on evolving catalogs of good practices, for various technologies. This SonarQube plugin then implements these catalogs as rules for scanning your Java projects.

⚠️ This is still a very early stage project. Any feedback or contribution will be highly appreciated. Please refer to the contribution section.

🌿 SonarQube Plugins

This plugin is part of the creedengo project.
You can find a list of all our other plugins in the creedengo repository

🚀 Getting Started

You can give a try with a one command:

./mvnw verify -Pkeep-running

... then you can use Java test project repository to test the environment : see Java test project in ./src/it/test-projects/creedengo-java-plugin-test-project

NB: To install other creedengo plugins, you can :

add JAVA System properties Dtest-it.additional-plugins with a comma separated list of plugin IDs (groupId:artifactId:version), or plugins JAR (file://....) to install.

For example :
```
./mvnw verify -Pkeep-running -Dtest-it.additional-plugins=org.sonarsource.javascript:sonar-plugin:10.1.0.21143
```
install different creedengo plugins with Marketplace (inside admin panel of SonarQube)

You can also directly use a all-in-one docker-compose

... and configure local SonarQube (security config and quality profile : see configuration for more details).
