A WireGuard configuration utility for Private Internet Access
|
|
|
|
This is a Python utility that generates WireGuard configuration files for the Private Internet Access VPN service. This allows you to take advantage of the WireGuard protocol without relying on PIA's proprietary client.
|
|
|
|
This was created by reverse engineering the [manual-connections](https://github.com/pia-foss/manual-connections) script released by PIA. At this stage, the tool is a quick and dirty attempt to get things working. It could break at any moment if PIA makes changes to their API.
|
|
|
|
pia-wg *should* run on both Windows and Linux.
|
|
|
|
## Windows
|
|
* Install the latest version of [Python 3](https://www.python.org/downloads/windows/)
|
|
* Select "Add Python to environment variables"
|
|
* Install [WireGuard](https://www.wireguard.com/install/)
|
|
|
|
Open a command prompt and navigate to the directory where you placed the pia-wg utility. The following commands will create a virtual Python environment, install the dependencies, and run the tool.
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
python -m venv venv
|
|
venv\Scripts\activate
|
|
pip install -r requirements.txt
|
|
generate-config.py
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Follow the prompts. When finished, you can exit the virtual environment with the `deactivate` command.
|
|
|
|
The script should generate a `.conf` file that can be imported into the WireGuard utility.
