Full README on https://packagento.com/mageplaza/magento-2-german-language-pack.)_ ## Recent Versions | Version | Released | |---|---| | 1.0.0 | 2019-06-12 | ## Dependencies ### Require | Package | Constraint | |---|---| | mageplaza/module-core | ^1.3.13 | ## Quality Latest release (1.0.0) fails the Packagento QA pipeline. Verdicts below are per-cell (Magento line × PHP version) for the matrixed tools, and run-once for the static / security tiers. ### Compatibility Each Magento line is installed on its supported PHP versions, then the module is built (DI compile + static-content deploy). Cells show passed / failed / untested; staircase gaps render as `–`. | Magento | PHP 8.2 | PHP 8.3 | PHP 8.4 | PHP 8.5 | |---|---|---|---|---| | 2.4.7 | Pass | Pass | – | – | | 2.4.8 | – | Pass | Pass | – | | 2.4.9 | – | – | Pass | Pass | ### Code Quality Advisory checks against the module's source. Never affect the Compatibility verdict — a phpcs finding can't make a module incompatible. #### Static Analysis Coding standards (phpcs), mess detection (phpmd), copy-pasted code (cpd), PHP cross-version compatibility, composer.json validity. Each runs once for the whole module. | Tool | Status | Findings | Summary | |---|---|---|---| | PHPCS | Warning | 1 | 1 warning (ruleset: Magento2) — 1 auto-fixable with phpcbf | | PHPMD | Pass | 0 | | | Cpd | Pass | 0 | | | Composer validate | Pass | 0 | | #### PHPStan Type-checks the module against a real Magento install. Re-runs per Magento + PHP version because resolvable symbols differ between releases. | Magento | PHP 8.2 | PHP 8.3 | PHP 8.4 | PHP 8.5 | |---|---|---|---|---| | 2.4.7 | 58 | 58 | – | – | | 2.4.8 | – | 58 | 58 | – | | 2.4.9 | – | – | 56 | 56 | ### Tests Unit and integration suites run per Magento + PHP cell. Test failures speak to the module's behaviour, not its compatibility with a line, so they're reported here separately. #### Unit Tests | Magento | PHP 8.2 | PHP 8.3 | PHP 8.4 | PHP 8.5 | |---|---|---|---|---| | 2.4.7 | N/A | N/A | – | – | | 2.4.8 | – | N/A | N/A | – | | 2.4.9 | – | – | N/A | N/A | #### Integration Tests | Magento | PHP 8.2 | PHP 8.3 | PHP 8.4 | PHP 8.5 | |---|---|---|---|---| | 2.4.7 | N/A | N/A | – | – | | 2.4.8 | – | N/A | N/A | – | | 2.4.9 | – | – | N/A | N/A | ### Security Dependency-advisory audit (composer audit) plus a source malware scan. A malware detection fails the version outright. | Tool | Status | Findings | Summary | |---|---|---|---| | Composer audit | Pass | 0 | | | Malware scan | Pass | 0 | | ## Licence and pricing Free. A licence is still minted on checkout and bound to your project for Composer access — no payment step. Refundable within 14 days of first purchase via https://packagento.com/account/refunds/. ## Install via Claude Code or any MCP client The Packagento MCP server can run the licence + project + Composer steps above in one tool call: ``` purchase_and_install_packages( composer_names=["mageplaza/magento-2-german-language-pack"], project_id="proj_xxx" ) ``` This handles cart, checkout, licence minting, project activation, and writes auth.json credentials.
