Hey everyone, We’re excited to announce a new major version of AWX, 9.0.0. Here are some of the notable changes: - Updated AWX images to use centos:8 as the parent image. - Updated to ansible-runner 1.4.4 to address various bugs. - Added oc and kubectl to the AWX images to support new container-based execution introduced in 8.0.0. - Added some optimizations to speed up the deletion of large Inventory Groups. - Fixed a bug that broke webhook launches for Job Templates that define a survey ([https://github.com/ansible/awx/issues/5062](https://github.com/ansible/awx/issues/5062)). - Fixed a bug in the CLI which incorrectly parsed launch time arguments for `awx job_templates launch` and `awx workflow_job_templates launch` ([https://github.com/ansible/awx/issues/5093](https://github.com/ansible/awx/issues/5093)). - Fixed a bug that caused inventory updates using “sourced from a project” to stop working ([https://github.com/ansible/awx/issues/4750](https://github.com/ansible/awx/issues/4750)). - Fixed a bug that caused Slack notifications to sometimes show the wrong bot avatar ([https://github.com/ansible/awx/pull/5125](https://github.com/ansible/awx/pull/5125)). - Fixed a bug that prevented the use of digits in Tower’s URL settings ([https://github.com/ansible/awx/issues/5081](https://github.com/ansible/awx/issues/5081)). For a full list of commits included in this release, see the tag page on GitHub: [https://github.com/ansible/awx/releases/tag/9.0.0](https://github.com/ansible/awx/releases/tag/9.0.0) ---

Hi , Is there any source code for AWX without docker, so that we can customize and make it use for our own purpose? Thanks, Gaffar ---

Depending on your requirements, you can customize the Docker images, installing the software you need, etc. Then, in the inventory file, change the repository, image and/or version. ---

There is no source code without docker. AWX is build on docker containers, and my understanding is there are no plans to change that. ---

Just as a friendly warning, the dependency chain for all the python modules used by AWX is fairly large. Do be cautious, if building from source, that “pip install” steps occur inside a “vortualenv” to avoid any conflicts with the operating system based python modules. **Nico Kadel-Garcia** Senior DevOps Engineer Cengage Learning 200 Pier Four Blvd. Boston, MA 02210 [nico.kadel-garcia@cengage.com](mailto:nico.kadel-garcia@cengage.com)
