NAME
wg-meta
DESCRIPTION
An approach to add metadata to the main wireguard config, written in Perl.
HIGHLIGHTS
Compatible with your existing setup (no configuration changes needed).
A CLI interface with abilities to set, enable, disable and apply your wireguard config(s).
A fancy
show
output which combines the meta-data, running-config and static-configsModular structure: The whole parser is independent of the CLI module - and can be used as a standalone library.
The config parser/writer and as well as the
wg show dump
parser are independent too. For more info, please refer to Wireguard::WGmeta::Wrapper::Config and Wireguard::WGmeta::Wrapper::ShowNo external dependencies, runs on plain Perl (>=v5.22)!
INSTALLATION
# Build from source
perl Makefile.PL
make test
make install
# Using `.deb` package (available in the linked git repo)
sudo dpkg -i wg-meta_X.X.X.deb
ENVIRONMENT VARS
WIREGUARD_HOME: Directory containing the Wireguard configuration -> Make sure the path ends with a `/`. Defaults to /etc/wireguard/.
IS_TESTING: When defined, it has the following effects:
Commands::Set|Enable|Disable omits the header of the generated configuration files.
Line of code is shown for warnings and errors.
WG_NO_COLOR: If defined, the show command does not prettify the output with colors.
SYNOPSIS (Parser)
Please refer to the respective modules Wireguard::WGmeta::Wrapper::Config and Wireguard::WGmeta::Wrapper::Show
SYNOPSIS (CLI)
Intended to use as command wrapper for the wg show
and wg set
commands. Support for wg-quick
is enabled by default.
Please note that all attributes have to be specified in the `wg set` _syntax_, which means _AllowedIPs_ becomes allowed-ips and so on.

UNDER THE HOOD
The main advantage is that this tool is not dependent on any other storage, metadata is stored inside the corresponding wgXX.conf file (Metadata is prefixed with #+):
[Interface]
#+Alias = some_alias
#+Description = Some Desc
Address = 10.0.0.7/24
ListenPort = 6666
PrivateKey = WEkEJW3b4TDmRvN+G+K9elzq52/djAXT+LAB6BSEUmM=
[Peer]
#+Name = Fancy_meta_name
PublicKey = +qz742hzxD3E5z5QF7VOvleVS1onavQpXBK3NdTh40g=
AllowedIPs = 0.0.0.0/0
Endpoint = wg.example.com
