WireGuard Indicator is a GNOME Shell indicator that shows the status of your WireGuard VPN.

WireGuard Indicator can enable or disable the WireGuard VPN by clicking on it.

You need superuser privileges (i.e. root access).

You need WireGuard. To install it, simply type in the terminal:

sudo apt install wireguard

Of course, you need to configure your beloved WireGuard first.

To install the WireGuard Indicator, follow these steps:

Go to the GNOME Extensions page and search for "WireGuard Indicator".

Enable the extension by clicking the switch.

WireGuard Indicator provide two ways to connect to your wireguard vpn:

• nmcli
  With nmcli we need to add our wg.conf file connection first by sudo nmcli connection import type wireguard file /path/to/your/your-wg-file.conf, since WireGuard Indicator pick up the connection of type=wireguard they'll show up on the drop down and toggled right away after import (note: you may want to disable the auto connect via nm-connection-editor or your distro network setting).

• systemd
  Add wireguard to systemd by running sudo systemctl enable [email protected], make sure you have your /etc/wireguard/config.conf in place.

When you start WireGuard Indicator it appears in the Indicator Area, as you can see in the next screenshot:

In this screenshot, the language is in Spanish. If there is no translation for your language, you can have the app in English.

If you enable on one of the WireGuard connections, a dialog will appear and ask you for your password to gain root privileges.

• Enable the dark theme for the WireGuard Indicator icon:

• Set the systemd service name
