WireGuard Web UI for self-serve client configurations, with optional auth.

WireGuard UI

A basic, self-contained management service for WireGuard with a self-serve web UI.
Current stable release: v1.1.0

Features

• Self-serve and web based
• QR-Code for convenient mobile client configuration
• Optional multi-user support behind an authenticating proxy
• Zero external dependencies - just a single binary using the wireguard kernel module
• Binary and container deployment

Running

The easiest way to run wg-ui is using the container image. To test it, run:

docker run --rm -it --privileged --entrypoint "/wireguard-ui" -v /tmp/wireguard-ui:/data -p 8080:8080 -p 5555:5555 embarkstudios/wireguard-ui:latest --data-dir=/data --log-level=debug

When running in production, we recommend using the latest release as opposed to latest.

Important to know is that you need to have WireGuard installed on the machine in order for this to work, as this is 'just' a UI to manage WireGuard configs.

Configuration

You can configure wg-ui using commandline flags or environment variables. To see all available flags run:

docker run --rm -it embarkstudios/wireguard-ui:latest -h
./wireguard-ui -h

You can alternatively specify each flag through an environment variable of the form WIREGUARD_UI_<FLAG_NAME>, where <FLAG_NAME> is replaced with the flag name transformed to CONSTANT_CASE, e.g.

docker run --rm -it embarkstudios/wireguard-ui:latest --log-level=debug

and

docker run --rm -it -e WIREGUARD_UI_LOG_LEVEL=debug embarkstudios/wireguard-ui:latest

are the same.

Install without Docker

You need to have WireGuard installed on the machine running wg-ui.
