Release notes

This brings contains a number of fixes including a couple new features.

Downloading libraries

Most prominently, Libraries API now has support for downloading external libraries for you using Drush. In particular, there is now a drush libraries-download command. In order to support this, libraries need to provide a download file url in their metadata. See hook_libraries_info() for more information.

This means that - given that Drush is available - you no longer have to figure out the exact file to download, and create a proper directory and so forth, you can just run drush ldl foo and we do all that for you. However, we do not (yet!) automatically download libraries for you when installing a module, so you need to run drush libraries-download yourself. As it is a new feature please do report if you are having problems with this or you have suggestions for improvements.

Libraries report

We now show a list of registered libraries in the user interface, specifically at /admin/reports/libraries. This also includes specific information that helps with installing a library, if it isn't installed already. Like the library downloading the current UI is only a first iteration, so please open issues if you have ideas for improving it or you are experiencing problems.
