WireGuard-Schlüssel (privat & öffentlich) in Python ohne Abhängigkeiten generieren

Der folgende Code ermöglicht das Generieren eines WireGuard-privaten und -öffentlichen Schlüssels, ohne eine Python-Bibliothek installieren zu müssen.

generate_wireguard_keys.py

import subprocess

def generate_wireguard_keys():
    """
    Generate a WireGuard private & public key
    Requires that the 'wg' command is available on PATH
    Returns (private_key, public_key), both strings
    """
    privkey = subprocess.check_output("wg genkey", shell=True).decode("utf-8").strip()
    pubkey = subprocess.check_output(f"echo '{privkey}' | wg pubkey", shell=True).decode("utf-8").strip()
    return (privkey, pubkey)

import subprocess

def generate_wireguard_keys():
    """
    Generate a WireGuard private & public key
    Requires that the 'wg' command is available on PATH
    Returns (private_key, public_key), both strings
    """
    privkey = subprocess.check_output("wg genkey", shell=True).decode("utf-8").strip()
    pubkey = subprocess.check_output(f"echo '{privkey}' | wg pubkey", shell=True).decode("utf-8").strip()
    return (privkey, pubkey)

Verwendungsbeispiel:

generate_wireguard_example.py

print(generate_wireguard_keys())

print(generate_wireguard_keys())

Ausgabe:

generate_wireguard_output.txt

('KIm+ZlY86I+cInG4FWZpKmhADUnxrqhdtQ5UzaFbuVs=', 'ctX9oUw+CkRe7GfSmUHAB9JjLfQWALOs0gXU9Ikhg1g=')

('KIm+ZlY86I+cInG4FWZpKmhADUnxrqhdtQ5UzaFbuVs=', 'ctX9oUw+CkRe7GfSmUHAB9JjLfQWALOs0gXU9Ikhg1g=')
