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!

Wireguard Dashboard

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.

📣 What's New: Version v2.2

🎉 New Features
- QR Code: You can add the private key of your existed peer to create a QR code, or just create a new one, dashboard will now be able to auto generate a private key and public key ;) Don't worry, all keys will be generated on your machine, and will delete all key files after they got generated.
- Autostart on boot: Added a tutorial on how to start the dashboard to on boot! Please read the tutorial below.
🪚 Bug Fixed
- When there are comments in the wireguard config file, will cause the dashboard to crash.
- Used regex to search for config files.

-----------------------------
$ ./wgd.sh start    # Start the dashboard in background
-----------------------------

Autostart Wireguard Dashboard on boot

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 has tested on Ubuntu 18.04.1 LTS, 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 wireguard-dashboard/src
```
Get the full path of the dashboard's directory
```
$ pwd
#Output: /root/wireguard-dashboard/src
```
For me, my output is the one above, your's might be different since it depends on where you downloaded the dashboard. Copy the the output to somewhere, we will need this in the next step.

Edit the service file

$ nano wg-dashboard.service

You will see something like this:

[Unit]
After=netword.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:

[Unit]
After=netword.service

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


[Install]
WantedBy=default.target

Be aware that after the value of WorkingDirectory, it does not have a / (slash). You can save the file with control+x and press Y.

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. If you have any questions or problem, please report a bug.

⚠️ For first time user please also read the next section.

✂️ Dashboard Configuration

Since version 2.0, Wireguard Dashboard 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 Value
`[Account]`
`username`	Dashboard login username	`admin`
`password`	Password, will be hash with SHA256	`admin` hashed in SHA256
`[Server]`
`wg_conf_path`	The path of all the Wireguard configurations	`/etc/wireguard`
`app_ip`	IP address the dashboard will run with	`0.0.0.0`
`app_port`	Port the the dashboard will run with	`10086`
`auth_req`	Does the dashboard need authentication to access	`true`
	If `auth_req = false` , user will not be access the Setting tab due to security consideration. User can only change the file directly in system.
`version`	Dashboard Version	N/A

Latest Version: V2.1

All these settings will be able to configure within the dashboard in Settings on the sidebar, without changing the actual file. Except version and auth_req due to security consideration.
