How to change this buttons label?(for translate)

Try extending the text property. See https://datatables.net/extensions/buttons/config for details.

      { 
        "extend": 'copy', 
        "text":'<i class="fa fa-copy"></i> Copy',
        "className": 'btn-outline-primary btn-sm'
      },
      { 
        "extend": 'excel', 
        "text":'<i class="fa fa-file-excel-o"></i> Excel',
        "className": 'btn-outline-primary btn-sm'
      },
      { 
        "extend": 'pdf', 
        "text":'<i class="fa fa-file-pdf-o"></i> PDF',
        "className": 'btn-outline-primary btn-sm'
      },

I call scripts inside my blade view file, if you do the same than simply create language files for each language called /resources/lang/en/datatablebuttons.php and add entries

'copy' => 'Copy',
'excel' => 'Excel',
'pfd' => 'PDF',
'print' => 'Print'

/resources/lang/de/datatablebuttons.php

'copy' => 'Kopieren',
'excel' => 'übertreffen',
'pfd' => 'PDF',
'print' => 'Drucken',

You could try:

      { 
        "extend": 'copy', 
        "text":'<i class="fa fa-copy"></i> {{ __('datatablebuttons.copy') }}',
        "className": 'btn-outline-primary btn-sm'
      },
      { 
        "extend": 'excel', 
        "text":'<i class="fa fa-file-excel-o"></i> {{ __('datatablebuttons.excel') }}',
        "className": 'btn-outline-primary btn-sm'
      },
      { 
        "extend": 'pdf', 
        "text":'<i class="fa fa-file-pdf-o"></i> {{ __('datatablebuttons.pdf') }}',
        "className": 'btn-outline-primary btn-sm'
      },

@fishmad Thank you for idea 👍

It maybe useful for someone. I use InfyOm Laravel Generator and write in resources/views/layouts/datatables_js.blade.php this code:

    (function ($, DataTable) {
        "use strict";
        DataTable.ext.buttons.create.text = function (dt) {
            return '<i class="fa fa-plus"></i> ' + dt.i18n('buttons.create', '{{ __('datatables_buttons.create') }}');
        };

        DataTable.ext.buttons.export.text = function (dt) {
            return '<i class="fa fa-download"></i> ' + dt.i18n('buttons.export', '{{ __('datatables_buttons.export') }}');
        };

        DataTable.ext.buttons.print.text = function (dt) {
            return '<i class="fa fa-print"></i> ' + dt.i18n('buttons.print', '{{ __('datatables_buttons.print') }}');
        };

        DataTable.ext.buttons.reset.text = function (dt) {
            return '<i class="fa fa-undo"></i> ' + dt.i18n('buttons.reset', '{{ __('datatables_buttons.reset') }}');
        };

        DataTable.ext.buttons.reload.text = function (dt) {
            return '<i class="fa fa-refresh"></i> ' + dt.i18n('buttons.reload', '{{ __('datatables_buttons.reload') }}');
        };
    })(jQuery, jQuery.fn.dataTable);

In resources/lang/ru/datatables_buttons.php:

return [
    'create' => 'Создать',
    'export' => 'Экспорт',
    'print' => 'Печать',
    'reset' => 'Сбросить',
    'reload' => 'Обновить'
];

And in resources/lang/en/datatables_buttons.php:

return [
    'create' => 'Create',
    'export' => 'Export',
    'print' => 'Print',
    'reset' => 'Reset',
    'reload' => 'Refresh'
];

Then i change locale in config/app.php to the desired language(don't forget about fallback_locale)
