This plugin is useful when you want to package your project and then deploy this package on a target environment and that this environment does not have access to a localization server. So you have to prepare the translations before deploying. It avoids you to have to put the localization files under your VCS or to have a local site to download the translations. Usage ----- [](#usage) Run `composer require drupal-composer/drupal-l10n` in your composer project before installing or updating `drupal/core`. Once drupal-l10n is required by your project, it will automatically download the translations files whenever `composer update` download new versions of Drupal projects installed. It also runs on `composer require` command. You can manually download the localization files according to your configuration by using `composer drupal:l10n`. Configuration ------------- [](#configuration) You can configure the plugin by providing some settings in the `extra` section of your root `composer.json`. ``` { "extra": { "drupal-l10n": { "destination": "translations/contrib", "languages": [ "fr", "es" ] } } } ``` The `destination` parameter may be used to specify the destination folder of the translation files. By default the destination is `sites/default/files/translations`. The `languages` parameter specify the languages you want to retrieve. Drupal configuration -------------------- [](#drupal-configuration) You can say to Drupal to not download translations files by updating your configuration on the pages: - `/admin/config/regional/translate/settings`: `Local files only` option - `/admin/config/media/file-system`: `Interface translations directory` field or by putting the following lines in your settings.php file: ``` $config['locale.settings']['translation']['path'] = 'translations/contrib'; $config['locale.settings']['translation']['use_source'] = 'local'; ``` ### Health Score 51 — FairBetter than 95% of packages Maintenance60 Regular maintenance activity Popularity44 Moderate usage in the ecosystem Community20 Small or concentrated contributor base Maturity65 Established project with proven stability Bus Factor2 2 contributors hold 50%+ of commits How is this calculated?**Maintenance (25%)** — Last commit recency, latest release date, and issue-to-star ratio.
