Hi there,

question for you when you have time :

managing multiple vendor, consequently dealing with many yum/pip requirements, i’d like to isolate such dependencies, preferably per awx scm project.  
what would be the best approach for dealing with such constraint using awx ?

Thanks  
Franck

Right now your best bet is to modify the container image itself. I’m tracking the meat of this feature here: [https://github.com/ansible/awx/issues/332](https://github.com/ansible/awx/issues/332)

got the point , thanks matthew. for now doing it on run time (using jobs template) but build time might be a better option , need to think about it
