We provide more than 1 docker image tag, the following will help you decide which one suites the best for you.

If you haven't installed Docker yet, install it by running:

curl -sSL https://get.docker.com | sh
sudo usermod -aG docker $(whoami)
exit

And log in again.

To automatically install & run wg-easy, simply run:

docker run --detach \
  --name wg-easy \
  --env LANG=de \
  --env WG_HOST=<🚨YOUR_SERVER_IP> \
  --env PASSWORD_HASH='<🚨YOUR_ADMIN_PASSWORD_HASH>' \
  --env PORT=51821 \
  --env WG_PORT=51820 \
  --volume ~/.wg-easy:/etc/wireguard \
  --publish 51820:51820/udp \
  --publish 51821:51821/tcp \
  --cap-add NET_ADMIN \
  --cap-add SYS_MODULE \
  --sysctl 'net.ipv4.conf.all.src_valid_mark=1' \
  --sysctl 'net.ipv4.ip_forward=1' \
  --restart unless-stopped \
  ghcr.io/wg-easy/wg-easy

💡 Replace <🚨YOUR_SERVER_IP> with your WAN IP, or a Dynamic DNS hostname.

💡 Replace <🚨YOUR_ADMIN_PASSWORD_HASH> with a bcrypt password hash to log in on the Web UI. See How_to_generate_an_bcrypt_hash.md for instructions on how to generate a hashed password.

The Web UI will now be available on http://0.0.0.0:51821.

The Prometheus metrics will now be available on http://0.0.0.0:51821/metrics. Grafana dashboard 21733

💡 Your configuration files will be saved in ~/.wg-easy

WireGuard Easy can be launched with Docker Compose as well - just download docker-compose.yml, make necessary adjustments and execute docker compose up --detach.

These options can be configured by setting environment variables using -e KEY="VALUE" in the docker run command.

If you change WG_PORT, make sure to also change the exposed port.

To update to the latest version, simply run:

docker stop wg-easy
docker rm wg-easy
docker pull ghcr.io/wg-easy/wg-easy

And then run the docker run -d \ ... command above again.

With Docker Compose WireGuard Easy can be updated with a single command: docker compose up --detach --pull always (if an image tag is specified in the Compose file and it is not latest, make sure that it is changed to the desired one; by default it is omitted and defaults to latest).
The WireGuared Easy container will be automatically recreated if a newer image was pulled.
