PMD Apex Rules

[dieffrei]

Hi All,
I've installed your plugin and I can see PMD Java Rules, however I can not see "Apex" rules.
Am I'm missing something during installation?
Thank you in advance

Hi @dieffrei, that is right, currently, only standard Java rules are available.
With PMD7 this will be extended with Kotlin rules.
A separate plugin can be used for custom rules, we have an in-house solution for it which we plan to bring to open source.
We didn't plan to support other languages, yet. Is there a need for it?
We could look into it and see how much work it would be.

We are open to PR's to support other languages like Apex.

Hi @jborgers,
Actually, we have installed PMD plugin latest version 3.5.1 in sonarqube, but we are not seen any apex rules.
Can you please let me know which version for pmd plugin contained apex rules.
we need to install any other plugin for importing apex rules.
May i know the PR'S support meaning?

Thank you in advance

Hi @SrihariReddy19042002 ,
PR means Pull Request.
So, this way you can contribute the Apex rules.

@jborgers as far I know PMD comes with out-of-the-box apex rules
