WireGuard Configuration API Client

WireGuard Configuration API Client

A comprehensive client library and CLI tool for interacting with the WireGuard Configuration Distribution API.

Features

• Complete API client for the WireGuard Configuration Distribution API
• Command-line interface for all API operations
• Automatic token authentication and renewal
• Configuration file support
• WireGuard keypair generation
• WireGuard configuration file creation

Installation

From PyPI (Recommended)

pip install wg-api-client

From Source

git clone https://github.com/tiiuae/wg-api-client-lib.git
cd wg-api-client-lib
pip install -e .

Prerequisites for Ubuntu

sudo apt update
sudo apt install -y python3 python3-pip wireguard-tools

Usage

As a Command-Line Tool

The package installs a wg-api-client command that can be used to interact with the API:

# Show help
wg-api-client --help

# Authenticate with the API
wg-api-client auth

# Get a WireGuard configuration for a device
wg-api-client get-config --device-id drone-01 --output drone01.conf

As a Library

from wg_api_client import WireGuardAPI, WireGuardHelper

# Initialize the API client
api = WireGuardAPI(
    api_url="http://20.46.55.161:8080/api/v1",
    hashed_credential="your-hashed-credential"
)

# Authenticate
success, _ = api.authenticate()
if success:
    # Generate a keypair
    private_key, public_key = WireGuardHelper.generate_keypair()
    
    # Request a configuration
    success, config_data = api.request_wireguard_config(
        device_id="drone-01",
        role="drone",
        public_key=public_key
    )
    
    if success:
        # Create a configuration file
        WireGuardHelper.create_client_config(config_data, "drone01.conf")

Configuration

The tool stores configuration in ~/.wg_api_config by default. You can specify a different location with the --config-file parameter.

Available Commands

Global Parameters

These parameters can be used with any command:

• --api-url: Base URL for the API (default: http://20.46.55.161:8080/api/v1)
• --hashed-credential: Hashed credential for authentication
• --config-file: Path to configuration file (default: ~/.wg_api_config)

Authentication

wg-api-client auth

This will:

• Authenticate with the API using the hashed credential
• Store the JWT token in the configuration file
• Store the refresh token for automatic token renewal

Device Configuration Management

Get WireGuard Configuration

wg-api-client get-config --device-id DEVICE_ID [--role {drone|fmo}] [--public-key KEY] [--output FILE]

Parameters:

• --device-id: Unique identifier for the device (required)
• --role: Device role - either "drone" or "fmo" (default: "drone")
• --public-key: WireGuard public key (if not provided, a new keypair will be generated)
• --output: Output configuration file (default: "wg.conf")

Examples:

# Generate a new keypair and configuration for a drone device
wg-api-client get-config --device-id drone-01

# Use an existing public key and set role to FMO
wg-api-client get-config --device-id fmo-main --role fmo --public-key "AbCdEf123..." --output fmo.conf

List All Devices (Admin only)

wg-api-client list-devices

This will display detailed information about all devices, including:

• Device ID
• Role
• IP address
• Public key
• Creation and update timestamps

Get Device Information (Admin only)

wg-api-client get-device DEVICE_ID

Delete a Device (Admin only)

wg-api-client delete-device DEVICE_ID

Delete All Devices (Admin only)

wg-api-client delete-all-devices [--confirm]

Use the --confirm flag to bypass the confirmation prompt.

FMO-specific Operations

Get FMO Device Information (Admin only)

wg-api-client get-fmo

Remove FMO Role (Admin only)

wg-api-client delete-fmo

Credential Management (Admin only)

Add a New Credential

wg-api-client add-credential --hashed-credential HASH [--role {user|admin}]

Parameters:

• --hashed-credential: Hashed credential to add (required)
• --role: Role for the credential - either "user" or "admin" (default: "user")

Examples of Common Workflows

Setting Up a New Drone Device

# Authenticate with the API
wg-api-client auth

# Generate a WireGuard configuration for the device
wg-api-client get-config --device-id drone-42 --output drone42.conf

# Transfer the generated configuration file to the device and apply it using the WireGuard tools

Setting Up an FMO Device

# Authenticate with the API
wg-api-client auth

# Check if there's already an FMO device
wg-api-client get-fmo

# If needed, remove the current FMO role
wg-api-client delete-fmo

# Generate a WireGuard configuration for the new FMO device
wg-api-client get-config --device-id fmo-new --role fmo --output fmo.conf

Administrator Tasks

# Check all registered devices
wg-api-client list-devices

# Add a new admin credential
wg-api-client add-credential --hashed-credential "your-hashed-credential" --role admin

# Clean up old devices
wg-api-client delete-device old-device-id
