NAME

wg-meta - CLI interface to manage Wireguard using Perl

DESCRIPTION

This CLI interface is a (possible) implementation of Wireguard::WGmeta::Wrapper::Show and Wireguard::WGmeta::Wrapper::Config. An you don't know the best yet: It's fully compatible with your existing setup (if not let me know!)

SYNOPSIS

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 non-meta attributes have to be specified in the `wg set` _syntax_, which means _AllowedIPs_ becomes allowed-ips and so on. wg-meta attributes on the other hand, have to be written in the exact same way as they were introduced!

    $ wg-meta help

    wg-meta - An approach to add meta data to the Wireguard configuration
    Usage: wg-meta <cmd> [<args>]
    Available subcommands:
             show: Shows the current configuration paired with available metadata
             set:  Sets configuration attributes
             enable:  Enables a peer
             disable:  Disables a peer
             addpeer:  Adds a peer and prints the client config to std_out
             removepeer:  Removes a peer
             apply:  Just a shorthand for `wg syncconf <iface> <(wg-quick strip <iface>)`
    You may pass `help` to any of these subcommands to view their usage

    # Access using peer (note the '+' before 'name' -> we add a previously unseen attribute)
    sudo wg-meta set wg0 peer WG_0_PEER_A_PUBLIC_KEY +name Fancy_meta_name

    # Access using alias
    sudo wg-meta set wg0 IPv6_only1 +description "Some Desc"

    # Lets check our newly set attributes
    sudo wg-meta show wg0 name description

    # output
    interface: wg0
      name: (none)
      description: (none)

    peer: IPv6_only1
      name: Fancy_meta_name
      description: Some Desc

    # Disable peer
    sudo wg-meta disable wg0 IPv6_only1

    # Enable peer
    sudo wg-meta enable wg0 WG_0_PEER_A_PUBLIC_KEY

    # Apply config
    sudo wg-meta apply wg0
