Hi there, thanks for these great tools!

When I create a wireguard interface, I'm having to manually bring up the interface and add an address to it.

Of note, looking at the interface for 'WgConfig the Address has a capitalized a. I tried it without the capital but that didn't work either.

Here is an example:

import { key, wginterface } from "wireguard-tools.js";

const newConf: wginterface.WgConfig = {
  Address: ["10.10.9.0/31"],
  privateKey: await key.privateKey(),
  portListen: 51000,
  peers: {
    "v4PLcjB38t0DffemaRMa4/M+vewv91VuL1YRcBr4KxA=": {
      endpoint: "172.16.32.66:51000",
      allowedIPs: ["172.23.45.0/24", "10.10.9.1/32"],
    },
  },
};

await wginterface.setConfig("wgB", newConf);

Then looking at the interface it is down, without an ip address.

53: wgB: <POINTOPOINT,NOARP> mtu 1420 qdisc noop state DOWN group default qlen 1000
    link/none

If I add an ip address and bring up the interface, the wireguard link works.

What am I doing wrong? Thanks

Also, forgot to mention, when I try to delete the interface - it doesn't delete it.

await wginterface.deleteInterface("wgB")

I have to manually run

davew@chud:~/netlink$ sudo ip link del dev wgB

hello, thanks, set ip address in any platform current not supported, in the future or next version added

in delete interface in windows and macOS is bug from code in addon, current fixing.

@MorningLightMountain713

use address, current is Address, a future rename to address

code reference: 38dca1bebe/addons/tools/wginterface.hh (L189-L195)

@MorningLightMountain713 use `address`, current is `Address`, a future rename to `address` code reference: https://sirherobrine23.org/Wireguard/Wireguard-tools.js/src/commit/38dca1bebe13212a9be0798a0e1c2ab45253e5cd/addons/tools/wginterface.hh#L189-L195

Issue persists, I am using sudo to run node.

Here is the code:

import { wginterface } from "wireguard-tools.js";

console.log(await wginterface.listDevices());
await wginterface.deleteInterface("wgB");
console.log(await wginterface.listDevices());

Here is the output:

davew@chud:~/netlink$ sudo /home/davew/.nvm/versions/node/v20.9.0/bin/node test.js
[ { name: 'wgB', from: 'kernel' } ]
[ { name: 'wgB', from: 'kernel' } ]
davew@chud:~/netlink$ ip addr show wgB
64: wgB: <POINTOPOINT,NOARP> mtu 1420 qdisc noop state DOWN group default qlen 1000
    link/none

Thanks

This is how I'm adding the ip and bringing the interface up now:

import { createRtNetlink } from 'netlink'

const localAddr = "10.10.9.0"

const links = await socket.getLinks();
const wgLink = links.filter(x => x.attrs.ifname === 'wgB')[0]

const address = { family: 2, prefixlen: 31, scope: 0, index: wgLink.data.index }
const attrs = { local: Buffer.from(localAddr.split(".")) }
await socket.newAddress(address, attrs)

await socket.setLink({
  index: wgLink.data.index,
  change: { up: true },
  flags: { up: true },
})

It all works now:

davew@chud:~/netlink$ ip addr show wgB
66: wgB: <POINTOPOINT,NOARP,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1420 qdisc noqueue state UNKNOWN group default qlen 1000
    link/none
    inet 10.10.9.0/31 scope global wgB
       valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever

I just need to add any additional routes for allowed networks
