Automatically update the language files for core, plugins and themes after running install|update in composer.
I'm currently working at ePark - A parking app in Sweden, Poland and Norway.
Formerly co-founder & Tech Lead/Architect at Heap Carsharing - A peer-to-peer carsharing startup in Sweden 🚗
I am sometimes available for freelance work.

This should then be used when running composer install.
post-package-install and post-package-update will only be executed after package installation/update (see https://getcomposer.org/doc/articles/scripts.md#package-events). But language packs change independently of the package they belong to. At any time, translations can be updated/changed in GlotPress. AFAIK these language updates won't get installed with the currently used hooks.
So the more appropriate hooks probably should be post-install-cmd and post-update-cmd (see https://getcomposer.org/doc/articles/scripts.md#command-events) even if this causes the script to run more frequently.
When using the mentioned hooks though, I get the following fatal error:

What do you think? Should the hooks be changed?
Any feedback appreciated! Thanks!
scripts property of composer.json:

When running composer update I get the following fatal error:

I'm using https://github.com/dnaber-de/wpstarter-boilerplate if that's relevant.

This package manages translations for not only plugins so we need a new name the better reflect this functionality.
Also the namespace should be changed.
install_t10ns() and update_t10ns() have almost identical function bodies. IMO they should be merged in one method (with a conditional check what hook the method is currently added to).
This would allow users to add the same function call to both the install and update hook, or use a referenced script like it's used in WP Starter's composer.json.
Recently, we had a lengthy internal discussion about a Composer based solution to get translations. The main reservation against this package (beside the fact that the code isn't really "clean") was that it uses Guzzle to download the translations:
The chances you get a dependencies conflict for something that is not even needed in production is very high. Ideally, building scripts should have no dependencies at all, but a such popular and big dependency like Guzzle is clearly a non-best practice.

An appropriate alternative is Composer's RemoteFilesystem class or even just file_get_contents() as in @bjornjohansen's wplang.
Maybe you want to follow wecodemore/wpstarter#44, especially wecodemore/wpstarter#44 (comment) as this covers all requirements of a Composer based translation download in a modern WordPress stack.
Hi,
I am using bedrock wordpress and plugin and theme language files are downloaded, but no wordpress core language files.
I was looking into your code and found this:
case 'package':
if ( 'johnpbloch/wordpress' === $package->getName() ) {
$this->package_type = 'core';
$this->slug = 'wordpress-core';
break;
}
I am using root/wordpress package for core, so looks like this would be a problem. Aren't there other way of determining core package except name?
