Running with Docker

Here's a quick command to run the server to try it out.

bash
export WG_ADMIN_PASSWORD="example"
export WG_WIREGUARD_PRIVATE_KEY="$(wg genkey)"

docker run \
  -it \
  --rm \
  --cap-add NET_ADMIN \
  --device /dev/net/tun:/dev/net/tun \
  -v wg-access-server-data:/data \
  -e "WG_ADMIN_PASSWORD=$WG_ADMIN_PASSWORD" \
  -e "WG_WIREGUARD_PRIVATE_KEY=$WG_WIREGUARD_PRIVATE_KEY" \
  -p 8000:8000/tcp \
  -p 51820:51820/udp \

If you open your browser using your LAN ip address you can even connect your phone to try it out: for example, i'll open my browser at [***] using the local LAN IP address.

You can connect to the web server on the local machine browser at http://localhost:8000

Running on Kubernetes via Helm

wg-access-server ships a Helm chart to make it easy to get started on Kubernetes.

Here's a quick start, but you can read more at the https://place1.github.io/wg-access-server/deployment/3-kubernetes/

bash
# deploy
helm install my-release --repo https://place1.github.io/wg-access-server wg-access-server

# cleanup
helm delete my-release

Running with Docker-Compose

Download the the docker-compose.yml file from the repo and run the following command.

bash
export WG_ADMIN_PASSWORD="example"
export WG_WIREGUARD_PRIVATE_KEY="$(wg genkey)"

docker-compose up

You can connect to the web server on the local machine browser at http://localhost:8000

If you open your browser to your machine's LAN IP address you'll be able to connect your phone using the UI and QR code!

Changelog

See the https://github.com/Place1/wg-access-server/blob/master/CHANGELOG.md file

Development

The software is made up a Golang Server and React App.

Here's how I develop locally:

1. run cd website && npm install && npm start to get the frontend running on :3000
2. run sudo go run ./main.go to get the server running on :8000

Here are some notes about the development configuration:

• sudo is required because the server uses iptables/ip to configure the *** networking
• you'll access the website on :3000 and it'll proxy API requests to :8000 thanks to webpack
• in-memory storage and generated *** keys will be used

GRPC codegeneration:

The client communicates with the server via gRPC-Web. You can edit the API specification in ./proto/*.proto.

After changing a service or message definition you'll want to re-generate server and client code using: ./codegen.sh.
