apply_filters( 'pre_get_language_files_from_path', null|array $files, string $path )

Since
6.5.0
Filters the translation files retrieved from a specified path before the actual lookup.

Description

Returning a non-null value from the filter will effectively short-circuit the MO files lookup, returning that value instead.

This can be useful in situations where the directory contains a large number of files and the default glob() function becomes expensive in terms of performance.
