Finding tarballs of tagged releases
-----------------------------------

Packaging Ansible or wanting to build a local package yourself, but don't want to do a git checkout? Tarballs of releases are available on the `Ansible downloads <https://releases.ansible.com/ansible>`_ page.
Packaging Ansible or wanting to build a local package yourself, but don't want to do a git checkout? Tarballs of releases are available from ``pypi`` as https://pypi.python.org/packages/source/a/ansible/ansible-{{VERSION}}.tar.gz. You can make VERSION a variable in your package managing system that you update in one place whenever you package a new version. Alternately, you can download https://pypi.python.org/project/ansible to get the latest stable release.

.. note::

If you are creating your own Ansible package, you must also download or package ``ansible-base`` as part of your Ansible package. You can download it as https://pypi.python.org/packages/source/a/ansible-base/ansible-base-{{VERSION}}.tar.gz.

These releases are also tagged in the `git repository <https://github.com/ansible/ansible/releases>`_ with the release version.
