WireGuard UI
wireguard-ui
A web user interface to manage your WireGuard setup.
Features
- Friendly UI
- Authentication
- Manage extra client's information (name, email, etc)
- Retrieve configs using QR code / file
Run WireGuard-UI
Default username and password are admin.
Using binary file
Download the binary file from the release and run it with command:
./wireguard-ui
Using docker compose
You can take a look at this example of docker-compose.yml. Please adjust volume mount points to work with your setup. Then run it like below:
docker-compose up
Note:* There is a Status option that needs docker to be able to access the network of the host in order to read the wireguard interface stats. See the cap_add and network_mode options on the docker-compose.yaml
- Because the network_mode is set to host, we don't need to specify the exposed ports. The app will listen on port 5000 by default.

Email configuration
To use custom wg.conf template set the WG_CONF_TEMPLATE environment variable to a path to such file. Make sure wireguard-ui will be able to work with it - use default template for reference.
In order to sent the wireguard configuration to clients via email, set the following environment variables:* using SendGrid API
SENDGRID_API_KEY: Your sendgrid api key EMAIL_FROM_ADDRESS: the email address you registered on sendgrid EMAIL_FROM_NAME: the sender's email address* using SMTP
SMTP_HOSTNAME: The SMTP ip address or hostname SMTP_PORT: the SMTP port SMTP_USERNAME: the SMTP username to authenticate SMTP_PASSWORD: the SMTP user password SMTP_AUTH_TYPE: the authentication type. Possible values: PLAIN, LOGIN, NONE EMAIL_FROM_ADDRESS: the sender's email address EMAIL_FROM_NAME: the sender's name
Auto restart WireGuard daemon
WireGuard-UI only takes care of configuration generation. You can use systemd to watch for the changes and restart the service. Following is an example:
systemd
Create /etc/systemd/system/wgui.service
[Unit] Description=Restart WireGuard After=network.target
[Service] Type=oneshot ExecStart=/usr/bin/systemctl restart wg-quick@wg0.service
[Install] RequiredBy=wgui.path
Create /etc/systemd/system/wgui.path
[Unit] Description=Watch /etc/wireguard/wg0.conf for changes
[Path] PathModified=/etc/wireguard/wg0.conf
[Install] WantedBy=multi-user.target
Apply it
systemctl enable wgui.{path,service} systemctl start wgui.{path,service}
openrc
Create and chmod +x /usr/local/bin/wgui
#!/bin/sh wg-quick down wg0 wg-quick up wg0
Create and chmod +x /etc/init.d/wgui
#!/sbin/openrc-run
command=/sbin/inotifyd command_args="/usr/local/bin/wgui /etc/wireguard/wg0.conf:w" pidfile=/run/${RC_SVCNAME}.pid command_background=yes
Apply it
rc-service wgui start rc-update add wgui default
Build
Build docker image
Go to the project root directory and run the following command:
docker build -t wireguard-ui .
Build binary file
Prepare the assets directory
./prepare_assets.sh
Then you can embed resources by generating Go source code
rice embed-go go build -o wireguard-ui
Or, append resources to executable as zip file
go build -o wireguard-ui rice append --exec wireguard-ui
