Set default language for fresh Drupal 8 install
In Drupal 8 is there a way to automatically set the installation language for a new installation? I'll be basing it on the URL, I already have the logic to work out which language should be selected but unsure how to make it the default selection when doing a fresh install of Drupal.

To start, you can populate the install state parameters via some URL queries. Adding ?langcode=en would default it to English.
Otherwise, you would have to use a custom profile to ensure a proper default selection is made. The related code is in core/includes/install.core.inc. The install_drupal function is what performs Drupal's install. The langcode is determined in install_begin_request via the install state which is populated by install_state_defaults.
You'd need to get the langcode populated
if (!empty($install_state['parameters']['langcode'])) {
$install_state['parameters']['langcode'] = preg_replace('/[^a-zA-Z_0-9-]/', '', $install_state['parameters']['langcode']);
}
Looking through the code, this is only possible via query parameters
// Add any installation parameters passed in via the URL.
if ($install_state['interactive']) {
$install_state['parameters'] += $request->query->all();
}
Unless you had a custom install profile that invoked hook_install_tasks to add a task at the beginning of the install process to set the default language code.
