function install_state_defaults in Drupal 7

Same name and namespace in other branches

1. 8 core/includes/install.core.inc \install_state_defaults()
2. 9 core/includes/install.core.inc \install_state_defaults()

Returns an array of default settings for the global installation state.

The installation state is initialized with these settings at the beginning of each page request. They may evolve during the page request, but they are initialized again once the next request begins.

Non-interactive Drupal installations can override some of these default settings by passing in an array to the installation script, most notably 'parameters' (which contains one-time parameters such as 'profile' and 'locale' that are normally passed in via the URL) and 'forms' (which can be used to programmatically submit forms during the installation; the keys of each element indicate the name of the installation task that the form submission is for, and the values are used as the $form_state['values'] array that is passed on to the form submission via drupal_form_submit()).

    'locales' => array(),
    // An array of parameters for the installation, pre-populated by the URL
    // or by the settings passed in to install_drupal(). This is primarily
    // used to store 'profile' (the name of the chosen installation profile)

    // the database is available for storage.

    // request. For interactive installations, this will trigger a page

    // installation. This is needed only rarely; for example, it would be used
    // by an installation task that prints JSON output rather than returning a
    // themed page. The most common example of this is during batch processing,

    // parameter properly in that case, so that individual installation tasks

    // be run again, even if it normally wouldn't be. This can be used, for
    // example, if a single task needs to be spread out over multiple page
    // requests, or if it needs to perform some validation before allowing
    // itself to be marked complete. The most common examples of this are batch
    // processing and form submissions, but the Drupal installer automatically
    // takes care of setting this parameter properly in those cases, so that
