README.md

Hi! I'm planning the next major update for this project, please let me know if you have any suggestions or feature requests ;) You can create an issue with the "Feature request" template. Cheers!

Help Wanted

If anyone know a better way to distribute releases of python application other than GitHub, please let me know in #103!

Please provide your OS name and version if you can run the dashboard on it perfectly in #31, since I only tested on Ubuntu. Thank you!

WGDashboard

Monitoring WireGuard is not convinient, need to login into server and type wg show. That's why this platform is being created, to view all configurations and manage them in a easier way.

Note: This project is not affiliate to the official WireGuard Project ;)

📣 What's New: v2.3

🎉 New Features
- Update directly from wgd.sh: Now you can update WGDashboard directly from the bash script.
- Displaying Peers: You can switch the display mode between list and table in the configuration page.
🪚 Bug Fixed
- Peer DNS Validation Fails #67: Added DNS format check. [❤️ @realfian]
- configparser.NoSectionError: No section: 'Interface' #66: Changed permission requirement for etc/wireguard from 744 to 755. [❤️ @ramalmaty]
- Feature request: Interface not loading when information missing #73: Fixed when Configuration Address and Listen Port is missing will crash the dashboard. [❤️ @js32]
- Remote Peer, MTU and PersistentKeepalives added #70: Added MTU, remote peer and Persistent Keepalive. [❤️ @realfian]

And more functions are coming up!

📝 Requirement

Recommend the following OS, tested by our beloved users:
- Ubuntu 18.04.1 LTS - 20.04.1 LTS [@Me]
- Debian GNU/Linux 10 (buster) [❤️ @robchez]

If you have tested on other OS and it works perfectly please provide it to me in #31. Thank you!
WireGuard and WireGuard-Tools (wg-quick) are installed.

Don't know how? Check this official documentation

Configuration files under /etc/wireguard, but please note the following sample

[Interface]
...
SaveConfig = true
# Need to include this line to allow WireGuard Tool to save your configuration, 
# or if you just want it to monitor your WireGuard Interface and don't need to
# make any changes with the dashboard, you can set it to false.

[Peer]
PublicKey = abcd1234
AllowedIPs = 1.2.3.4/32
# Must have for each peer

Python 3.7+ & Pip3

🛠 Install

Download WGDashboard

git clone -b v2.3.1 https://github.com/donaldzou/WGDashboard.git wgdashboard

Open the WGDashboard folder
```
cd wgdashboard/src
```

Install WGDashboard

sudo chmod u+x wgd.sh
sudo ./wgd.sh install

Give read and execute permission to root of the WireGuard configuration folder, you can change the path if your configuration files are not stored in /etc/wireguard
```
sudo chmod -R 755 /etc/wireguard
```
Run WGDashboard
```
./wgd.sh start
```
Note:

For pivpn user, please use sudo ./wgd.sh start to run if your current account does not have the permission to run wg show and wg-quick.
Access dashboard

Access your server with port 10086 (e.g. http://your_server_ip:10086), using username admin and password admin. See below how to change port and ip that the dashboard is running with.

🪜 Usage

Start/Stop/Restart WGDashboard

cd wgdashboard/src
-----------------------------
./wgd.sh start    # Start the dashboard in background
-----------------------------
./wgd.sh debug    # Start the dashboard in foreground (debug mode)
-----------------------------
./wgd.sh stop     # Stop the dashboard
-----------------------------
./wgd.sh restart  # Restart the dasboard

Autostart WGDashboard on boot (>= v2.2)

In the src folder, it contained a file called wg-dashboard.service, we can use this file to let our system to autostart the dashboard after reboot. The following guide has tested on Ubuntu, most Debian based OS might be the same, but some might not. Please don't hesitate to provide your system if you have tested the autostart on another system.

Changing the directory to the dashboard's directory
```
cd wgdashboard/src
```
Get the full path of the dashboard's directory
```
pwd
#Output: /root/wgdashboard/src
```
For this example, the output is /root/wireguard-dashboard/src, your path might be different since it depends on where you downloaded the dashboard in the first place. Copy the the output to somewhere, we will need this in the next step.
Edit the service file, the service file is located in wireguard-dashboard/src, you can use other editor you like, here will be using nano
```
nano wg-dashboard.service
```
You will see something like this:
```
[Unit]
After=network.service

[Service]
WorkingDirectory=<your dashboard directory full path here>
ExecStart=/usr/bin/python3 <your dashboard directory full path here>/dashboard.py
Restart=always


[Install]
WantedBy=default.target
```
Now, we need to replace both <your dashboard directory full path here> to the one you just copied from step 2. After doing this, the file will become something like this, your file might be different:
```
[Unit]
After=netword.service

[Service]
WorkingDirectory=/root/wgdashboard/src
ExecStart=/usr/bin/python3 /root/wgdashboard/src/dashboard.py
Restart=always


[Install]
WantedBy=default.target
```
Be aware that after the value of WorkingDirectory, it does not have a / (slash). And then save the file after you edited it
Copy the service file to systemd folder
```
$ cp wg-dashboard.service /etc/systemd/system/wg-dashboard.service
```
To make sure you copy the file successfully, you can use this command cat /etc/systemd/system/wg-dashboard.service to see if it will output the file you just edited.

Enable the service

$ sudo chmod 664 /etc/systemd/system/wg-dashboard.service
$ sudo systemctl daemon-reload
$ sudo systemctl enable wg-dashboard.service
$ sudo systemctl start wg-dashboard.service  # <-- To start the service

Check if the service run correctly

$ sudo systemctl status wg-dashboard.service

And you should see something like this

● wg-dashboard.service
     Loaded: loaded (/etc/systemd/system/wg-dashboard.service; enabled; vendor preset: enabled)

If you see Active: followed by active (running) since... then it means it run correctly.

Stop/Start/Restart the service

sudo systemctl stop wg-dashboard.service      # <-- To stop the service
sudo systemctl start wg-dashboard.service     # <-- To start the service
sudo systemctl restart wg-dashboard.service   # <-- To restart the service

And now you can reboot your system, and use the command at step 6 to see if it will auto start after the reboot, or just simply access the dashboard through your browser. If you have any questions or problem, please report it in the issue page.

✂️ Dashboard Configuration

Dashboard Configuration file

Since version 2.0, WGDashboard will be using a configuration file called wg-dashboard.ini, (It will generate automatically after first time running the dashboard). More options will include in future versions, and for now it included the following config:

	Description	Default	Available in Setting
`[Account]`
`username`	Dashboard login username	`admin`	Yes
`password`	Password, will be hash with SHA256	`admin` hashed in SHA256	Yes
`[Server]`
`wg_conf_path`	The path of all the Wireguard configurations	`/etc/wireguard`	Yes
`app_ip`	IP address the dashboard will run with	`0.0.0.0`	Yes
`app_port`	Port the the dashboard will run with	`10086`	Yes
`auth_req`	Does the dashboard need authentication to access	`true`	No
	If `auth_req = false` , user will not be access the Setting tab due to security consideration. User can only edit the file directly in system.
`version`	Dashboard Version	`v2.2`	No

Except auth_req due to security consideration.

Generating QR code and peer configuration file (.conf)

Starting version 2.2, dashboard can now generate QR code and configuration file for each peer. Here is a template of what each QR code encoded with and the same content will be inside the file:

[Interface]
PrivateKey = QWERTYUIOPO234567890YUSDAKFH10E1B12JE129U21=
Address = 0.0.0.0/32
DNS = 1.1.1.1

[Peer]
PublicKey = QWERTYUIOPO234567890YUSDAKFH10E1B12JE129U21=
AllowedIPs = 0.0.0.0/0
Endpoint = 0.0.0.0:51820

	Description	Default Value	Available in Peer setting
`[Interface]`
`PrivateKey`	The private key of this peer	Private key generated by WireGuard (`wg genkey`) or provided by user	Yes
`Address`	The `allowed_ips` of your peer	N/A	Yes
`DNS`	The DNS server your peer will use	`1.1.1.1` - Cloud flare DNS, you can change it when you adding the peer or in the peer setting.	Yes
`[Peer]`
`PublicKey`	The public key of your server	N/A	No
`AllowedIPs`	IP ranges for which a peer will route traffic	`0.0.0.0/0` - Indicated a default route to send all internet and VPN traffic through that peer.	Yes
`Endpoint`	Your wireguard server ip and port, the dashboard will search for your server's default interface's ip.	`<your server default interface ip>:<listen port>`	Yes

❓ How to update the dashboard?

Change your directory to wireguard-dashboard
```
cd wireguard-dashboard/src
```
