# wgconfig

Parsing and writing WireGuard configuration files (comment preserving)

WireGuard config files are ini-style. Since all "Peer" sections have the same name, these files cannot be parsed and modified by most modules handling configuration files. Most existing modules are not able to preserve or even add comments when modifying a config file. "wgconfig" was created to work with WireGuard configuration files and to preserve comments.

---

## Features

- Read and parse WireGuard configuration files and make the data available as Python dictionaries
- Create new WireGuard configuration files
- Add peers to WireGuard configuration files and delete peers from WireGuard configuration files
- Save and clone WireGuard configuration files
- Comments are preserved when reading and writing WireGuard configuration files
- Leading comments may be added when creating sections or attributes
- Such comments may be deleted when removing sections or attributes
- No other modules are needed, i.e. no dependencies

---

## Installation

Install using PyPi:

```shell
pip3 install wgconfig
```

---

## Quickstart

### Reading and parsing an existing WireGuard configuration file

Read and parse the existing WireGuard configuration file 'wg0.conf' located in '/etc/wireguard':

```python
import wgconfig
wc = wgconfig.WGConfig('wg0')
wc.read_file()
print('INTERFACE DATA:', wc.interface)
print('PEER DATA:', wc.peers)
```

Add a new peer with a comment line before the peer section:
```python
wc.add_peer('801mgm2JhjTOCxfihEknzFJGYxDvi+8oVYBrWe3hOWM=', '# Newly added peer')
```

Add an attribute to that peer:
```python
wc.add_attr('801mgm2JhjTOCxfihEknzFJGYxDvi+8oVYBrWe3hOWM=', 'Endpoint', 'wg.example.com:51820', '# Added for demonstration purposes')
```

Write the changes to disk. Comments that were present when reading the file are preserved.
```python
wc.write_file()
```

Please see below for more detailed usage information.

### Creating a new WireGuard configuration file

Create a new WireGuard configuration file as '/root/wgtest.conf':

```python
import wgconfig
wc = wgconfig.WGConfig('/root/wgtest.conf')
# Add attribute to Interface section (denoted by 'None')
wc.add_attr(None, 'PrivateKey', '6FYKQKEtGFAb5HSwyj5cQl3wgS1E9d6SqVjdVksOn2s=')
# Save to disk
wc.write_file()
# Access the data
print('INTERFACE DATA:', wc.interface)
print('PEER DATA (there are no peers yet):', wc.peers)
```

The module also contains simple wrappers around the wg command to generate and manage keys:

```python
import wgconfig.wgexec as wgexec
# Create a new WireGuard private key
private_key = wgexec.generate_privatekey()
```

Please see below for more detailed usage information.

## Usage / API

### Properties

* interface: Returns attributes and values of the Interface section as a dictionary

* peers: Returns attributes and values of all peers as a nested dictionary

### Methods for interaction

* __init__(file)
  Initializes the instance

  Parameters:
  * file (str): Path of the WireGuard configuration file
      You may also just provide the interface name. In this case, the path '/etc/wireguard' is assumed along with a file extension '.conf'.

  Examples:
  * wc = wgconfig.WGConfig('wg0')
  * wc = wgconfig.WGConfig('/etc/wireguard/wg0.conf')

* read_file()
  Reads the WireGuard config file into memory

* write_file(file)
  Writes a WireGuard config file from memory to file

  Parameters:
  * file (str, optional, default: None): Path of the WireGuard configuration file
      You may also just provide the interface name. In this case the path '/etc/wireguard' is assumed along with a file extension '.conf'.
      In case the parameter is missing, the config file defined on object initialization is used.

  Examples:
  * wc.write_file()
  * wc.write_file('wg0')
  * wc.write_file('/etc/wireguard/wg0.conf')

* initialize_file(leading_comment)
  Empties the file and adds the interface section header

  Parameters:
  * leading_comment (str, optional, default: None): Comment line to add before the Interface section
      Must start with a '#' to indicate a comment.

  Examples:
  * wc.initialize_file()
  * wc.initialize_file('# Here comes the Interface section:')

* add_peer(key, leading_comment)
  Adds a new peer with the given (public) key

  Parameters:
  * key (str): Public key of the new peer
  * leading_comment (str, optional, default: None): Comment line to add before the Peer section
      Must start with a '#' to indicate a comment.

  Examples:
  * wc.add_peer('801mgm2JhjTOCxfihEknzFJGYxDvi+8oVYBrWe3hOWM=')
  * wc.add_peer('801mgm2JhjTOCxfihEknzFJGYxDvi+8oVYBrWe3hOWM=', '# Here comes the Interface section:')

* del_peer(key)
  Removes the peer with the given (public) key

  Note: Comment lines immediately before the Peer section are removed, too.

  Parameters:
  * key (str): Public key of the peer

  Examples:
  * wc.del_peer('801mgm2JhjTOCxfihEknzFJGYxDvi+8oVYBrWe3hOWM=')

* add_attr(key, attr, value, leading_comment, append_as_line)
  Adds an attribute/value pair to the given peer ('None' for adding an interface attribute)

  Parameters:
  * key (str): Key of the peer. Set to 'None' to denote the Interface section
  * attr (str) Name of the attribute to add
  * value (str or int) Value of the attribute to add
  * leading_comment (str, optional, default: None): Comment line to add before the Peer section
      Must start with a '#' to indicate a comment.
  * append_as_line (bool, optional, default: False): Whether to add the attribute as a new line if another attribute with the same name already exists
      If "False", adding an attribute that already exists results in comma-separated attribute values. This way, "AllowedIPs" can be added one by one.

  Examples:
  * wc.add_attr(None, 'ListenPort', '51820')
  * wc.add_attr('801mgm2JhjTOCxfihEknzFJGYxDvi+8oVYBrWe3hOWM=', 'AllowedIPs', '0.0.0.0/0')
  * wc.add_attr('801mgm2JhjTOCxfihEknzFJGYxDvi+8oVYBrWe3hOWM=', 'AllowedIPs', '0.0.0.0/0', '# Allow all IPv4 addresses', append_as_line=True)

* del_attr(self, key, attr, value, remove_leading_comments)
  Removes an attribute/value pair from the given peer ('None' for adding an interface attribute); set 'value' to 'None' to remove all values

  Parameters:
  * key (str): Key of the peer. Set to 'None' to denote the Interface section
  * attr (str) Name of the attribute to remove
  * value (str or int, optional, default: None) Value of the attribute to remove
      Set to 'None' if all values (either comma-separated or is multiple attribute lines) shall be removed. Otherwise specify the specific value to be removed.
  * remove_leading_comments (bool, optional, default: True): Indicates whether comment lines before the attribute line(s) shall be removed, too

  Examples:
  * wc.del_attr(None, 'ListenPort')
  * wc.del_attr('801mgm2JhjTOCxfihEknzFJGYxDvi+8oVYBrWe3hOWM=', 'AllowedIPs')
  * wc.del_attr('801mgm2JhjTOCxfihEknzFJGYxDvi+8oVYBrWe3hOWM=', 'AllowedIPs', '0.0.0.0/0')
  * wc.del_attr('801mgm2JhjTOCxfihEknzFJGYxDvi+8oVYBrWe3hOWM=', 'AllowedIPs', '0.0.0.0/0', remove_leading_comments=False)
