# WireGuard docker image using BoringTun
WireGuard docker setup using BoringTun.
## Overview
This project provides a docker image to create a simple personal WireGuard VPN using BoringTun.
Using BoringTun enables the use of a userspace implementation on hosts that do not provide a WireGuard kernel module.
Required configuration files will be generated on first run using environment variables. Client configurations are
available as config files and QR codes.
## Build
When creating the image, BoringTun is compiled in a docker build stage and later copied into final image.
```
$ docker-compose build
```
## Run
Customize the file `docker-compose`. You can change the following environment variables as needed
* `DEVICE`: Some `tun` device, e.g. `tun0`
* `SERVER_HOST`: The host name of your server
* `SERVER_PORT`: The port the service should listen at
* `NETWORK`: Some custom /24 network. e.g. `192.168.42.0`
* `CLIENTS`: Number of clients for which configurations are to be created. Do not use more than 240 clients.
If no environment variables are set, config creation script will ask you for settings.
### Create config files
Run the service to create required keys and config files in directory `config.d`. It will print out used configuration params.
```
$ docker-compose run wg
Starting wireguard_wg_1 ... done
Attaching to wireguard_wg_1
wg_1 | - Writing config to file tun0.conf
wg_1 | - Using endpoint hostname example.com
wg_1 | - Using port 51820
wg_1 | - Using network 192.168.42.0/24
wg_1 | - Generating 5 client configs and client QR codes
wireguard_wg_1 exited with code 0
```
### Run the service
Start the service in detached mode.
```
$ docker-compose up -d
```
### List server and client configs
```
$ docker-compose run wg ls
```
### Add new client
Stop the service and run
```
$ docker-compose run wg add
```
This will create new client configuration and adds peer configuration to server config file. Restart service.
### Remove client
Stop the service and run
```
$ docker-compose run wg rm 1
```
This will remove client with id '1' (or any other client for different id) configuration. Restart service.
### Show client config
Run command to show client configuration and QR code.
```
$ docker-compose run wg show 1
```
### Remove configuration and create new one from scratch
Stop the service and run the following command to remove existing config files.
```
$ docker-compose run wg purge
```
Run command `docker-compose up` again to generate new config files.
## Client configurations
You will find client configuration files for each client as config file and PNG file containing a QR code with
client configuration in directory `config.d`.
