Usage

Running as systemd service

Since wghttp doesn't need any privilege, it's preferred to run as systemd user service.

Copy wghttp.service to ~/.config/systemd/user/wghttp.service. After setting the environment options in wghttp.service, run:

systemctl --user daemon-reload
systemctl --user enable --now wghttp

Options compared to WireGuard configuration file

For connecting as a client to a VPN gateway, you might have:

[Interface]
Address = 10.200.100.8/24
DNS = 10.200.100.1
PrivateKey = oK56DE9Ue9zK76rAc8pBl6opph+1v36lm7cXXsQKrQM=

[Peer]
PublicKey = GtL7fZc/bLnqZldpVofMCD6hDjrK28SsdLxevJ+qtKU=
AllowedIPs = 0.0.0.0/0
Endpoint = demo.wireguard.com:51820

The above configuration is equal to:

wghttp \
  --peer-endpoint=demo.wireguard.com:51820 \
  --peer-key=GtL7fZc/bLnqZldpVofMCD6hDjrK28SsdLxevJ+qtKU= \
  --private-key=oK56DE9Ue9zK76rAc8pBl6opph+1v36lm7cXXsQKrQM= \
  --client-ip=10.200.100.8 \
  --dns=10.200.100.1 \
  --exit-mode=remote
