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: v3.0

  • 🎉 New Features

    • Moved from TinyDB to SQLite: SQLite provide a better performance and loading speed when getting peers! Also avoided crashing the database due to race condition.
    • Added Gunicorn WSGI Server: This could provide more stable on handling HTTP request, and more flexibility in the future (such as HTTPS support). BIG THANKS to @pgalonza ❤️
    • Add Peers by Bulk: User can add peers by bulk, just simply set the amount and click add.
    • Delete Peers by Bulk: User can delete peers by bulk, without deleting peers one by one.
    • Download Peers in Zip: User can download all downloadable peers in a zip.
    • Added Pre-shared Key to peers: Now each peer can add with a pre-shared key to enhance security. Previously added peers can add the pre-shared key through the peer setting button.
    • Redirect Back to Previous Page: The dashboard will now redirect you back to your previous page if the current session got timed out and you need to sign in again.
    • Added Some 🥘 Experimental Functions

  • 🪚 Bug Fixed

  • 🧐 Other Changes

    • Key generating moved to front-end: No longer need to use the server's WireGuard to generate keys, thanks to the wireguard.js from the official repository!
    • Peer transfer calculation: each peer will now show all transfer amount (previously was only showing transfer amount from the last configuration start-up).
    • UI adjustment on running peers: peers will have a new style indicating that it is running.
    • wgd.sh finally can update itself: So now user could update the whole dashboard from wgd.sh, with the update command.
    • Minified JS and CSS files: Although only a small changes on the file size, but I think is still a good practice to save a bit of bandwidth ;)

And many other small changes for performance and bug fixes! 😆

If you have any other brilliant ideas for this project, please shout it in here #129 ❤️

For users who is using v2.x.x please be sure to read this before updating WGDashboard ;)

🛠 Install

  1. Download WGDashboard

    git clone -b v3.0.5 https://github.com/donaldzou/WGDashboard.git wgdashboard

  2. Open the WGDashboard folder

    cd wgdashboard/src

  3. Install WGDashboard

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

  4. 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

  5. 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.

  6. 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.

  1. Changing the directory to the dashboard's directory

    cd wgdashboard/src

  2. 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.

  3. 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

  4. 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.

  5. 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

  6. 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)
     Active: active (running) since Tue 2021-08-03 22:31:26 UTC; 4s ago
   Main PID: 6602 (python3)
      Tasks: 1 (limit: 453)
     Memory: 26.1M
     CGroup: /system.slice/wg-dashboard.service
             └─6602 /usr/bin/python3 /root/wgdashboard/src/dashboard.py

Aug 03 22:31:26 ubuntu-wg systemd[1]: Started wg-dashboard.service.

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

  7. 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

  8. 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 configurations:

Description Default Edit Available

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, 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. true No

peer_mtu Maximum Transmit Unit 1420
peer_keep_alive Keep Alive 21 Yes

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?

Please note for user who is using v2.3.1 or below

  • For user who is using v2.3.1 or below, please notice that all data that stored in the current database will not transfer to the new database. This is hard decision to move from TinyDB to SQLite. But SQLite does provide a thread-safe access and TinyDB doesn't. I couldn't find a safe way to transfer the data, so you need to do them manually... Sorry about that 😔 . But I guess this would be a great start for future development 😎.

Update Method 1 (For v3.0 or above)

  1. Change your directory to wgdashboard/src

    cd wgdashboard/src

  2. Update the dashboard with the following

    ./wgd.sh update

    If this doesn't work, please use the method below. Sorry about that :(

Update Method 2

  1. Change your directory to wgdashboard

    cd wgdashboard/src

  2. Update the dashboard

    git pull https://github.com/donaldzou/WGDashboard.git v3.0.5 --force

  3. Install

    ./wgd.sh install

Starting with v3.0, you can simply do ./wgd.sh update !! (I hope, lol)

🥘 Experimental Functions

Progressive Web App (PWA) for WGDashboard

  • With v3.0, I've added a manifest.json into the dashboard, so user could add their dashboard as a PWA to their browser or mobile device.
