wg-discovery

wg-discovery is a lightweight, peer-to-peer tool for WireGuard that automates the discovery and management of peer endpoints. It runs as an HTTP service, providing a JSON API to:

  • Expose Current Endpoints:
    Retrieve a list of active peer endpoints via a GET request.

  • Dynamically Update Endpoints:
    Allow peers to update their endpoint information via a POST request.

  • Security:
    Enforce source IP filtering and optionally drop privileges after binding the listening socket.

wg-discovery is designed to work in decentralized WireGuard setups—helping peers update one another’s connection details automatically without relying on a central server.

Sudo Access

If you run the service as a non-root user, you'll need to allow that user to execute the wg command via sudo without a password prompt. For example, to allow the user bob to run the wg command located at /usr/bin/wg, add the following line to your sudoers configuration (using visudo):

bob ALL=(root) NOPASSWD: /usr/bin/wg

Replace bob with your username and adjust the path to the wg binary if necessary.
