With new wp-cli tools and our own wp-fix-languages
we are one step closer to not having to use composer for language pack installations in the future anymore.
We have not had any issues with wp-languages.github.io for a long while. The plugin https://github.com/Angrycreative/composer-plugin-language-update has not been updated in 3 years.
We could move to a wp-cli -only method, but then we would loose some of the Composer niceness.
What do others think?
We still have in composer.json
language files installed with:
"koodimonni-language/fi": "*",
"koodimonni-language/sv_se": "*",
WordPress itself also installs language files, and we have the helper wp-fix-languages that also does it (and it runs automatically on dev environment bootstrap).
Our wp-fix-languages uses wp-cli language pack installation commands, that cover much more than what wp-languages.github.io. In the long run we should get these removed from composer.json
.
The reliability of wp-languages.github.io has some times been a bit flaky. It's long term viability should be reviewed.
