Wireguard Rest

Note: This branch is meant for Debian 10 / buster.

This rails application implements a webserivce (REST) API for wireguard --- similar to Mullvad's (https://www.mullvad.net/guides/wireguard-and-mullvad-vpn/).

It allows users --- identified by there account number --- to manage wireguard public keys. In return, it generates network configuration just like Mullvad.

This application does not implement any busy logic - it is uses in the Freifunk KBU network in order to provide a tinkering alternative to mullvad within the Freifunk KBU (https://kbu.freifunk.net) network.

This application provides CRUD functionality for public keys. When running on wireguard-VPN-servers, it may be used as a backend service, being called from frontend endpoints (registration portal, etc.).

Supported calls:

Please note:

• Users are identified by a secret account ID (ie generating via makepasswd: makepasswd --chars=20). Account IDs are unique.
• Documents contain comments and additional information: In order to keep the database schema simple, all additional information is supposed to be stored using a json encoded document (NoSQL-Style).
• On errors, HTTP 422 (Unprocessable Entity) and error message are returned.

Uploading public keys

• Example call: curl -sSL https://<endpoint> -d account="<account id>" -d document="Some text data" --data-urlencode pubkey="<publickey>"
• Example result: 192.168.1.1, fc00:1234::1/128

Get a list of all public keys

For debugging (by users) all public keys can be retrieved. Account ID and Document remain hidden.

• Example call: curl -sSL https://<endpoint>
• Result (JSON): [{id: 1, pubkey: AA.., created_at: '2017-01-01 18:25'},{id: 2, pubkey: BB.., created_at: '2017-01-01 19:25'}]

Delete public keys

• Example call: curl -X "DELETE" https://<endpoint> -d account="<account id>"
• Result: HTTP 204 (No Content)

Deployment

This application can be deployed as a standard ruby on rails application. For simplicity, the Debian rails package as of Debian 10 / Buster can be used.

Please note, that the deployment instructions are rather brief and assume general knowledge on deploying Ruby on Rails applications.

In addition, (ansible-wireguard-rest)[https://github.com/yanosz/ansible-wireguard-rest] can be used for ansible based deployments on Debian 9. It configures this application and a network interface accordingly.

As usual, mod_rails / phusion passenger can be used as well.

1. System Packages

apt-get install rails git puma sudo ruby-dev

2. Application User

useradd -m wireguard-rest -s /bin/bash; su - wireguard-rest

3. Sudo

wireguard-rest ALL=(root) NOPASSWD: /usr/bin/setconf wg-rest /etc/wireguard/rest.conf

4. Network Link

Make sure that a wireguard link (default name: wg-rest) exists on your system.

5. Clone

git clone https://github.com/yanosz/wireguard-rest.git

6. Configuration

• config/app.yml and config/rest.erb.conf according to your needs.
• When not using sqlite3, adjust config/database.yml. Install additional packages if needed.

7. Init

• Database: rake db:migrate RAILS_ENV=production
• Wireguard configuration: rake init:wg_conf RAILS_ENV=production

Make sure, that /etc/wireguard/rest.conf is correct and applicable: sudo /usr/bin/setconf wg-rest /etc/wireguard/rest.conf

8. Running

rails s -e production
