Channels Overview

Our channels/websocket implementation handles the communication between AWX API and updates in AWX UI. Note that the websockets are not meant for external use and 3rd party clients.

Architecture

AWX enlists the help of the django-channels library to create our communications layer. django-channels provides us with per-client messaging integration in our application by implementing the Asynchronous Server Gateway Interface (ASGI).
