Please note that mapping ```/etc/wireguard``` to ```/data``` inside the docker, will erase your host's current configuration.
If needed, please make sure to backup your files from ```/etc/wireguard```.

A workaround would be to change the ```WG_INTERFACE_NAME``` to something different, as it will create a new interface (```wg-auto.conf``` for example), note that if you do so, you will have to adapt your daemon accordingly.

To get the value for **<API_LISTEN_IP>** take a look at the [WireGuard Status Display](#wireguard-status-display) section. If the status display should be disabled, remove the whole service from the docker-compose file or
use 127.0.0.1 as <API_LISTEN_IP>.

In order to enable the Status API integration, the following settings need to be configured:
```
# https://github.com/jamescun/wg-api integration, user and password (basic auth) are optional
WG_STATS_API=http://localhost:8182
WG_STATS_API=http://<API_LISTEN_IP>:8182
WG_STATS_API_USER=
WG_STATS_API_PASS=
```
To setup the WireGuard API take a look at [https://github.com/jamescun/wg-api/blob/master/README.md](https://github.com/jamescun/wg-api/blob/master/README.md).

Please fell free to test and report any bugs.
To setup the WireGuard API take a look at [https://github.com/jamescun/wg-api/blob/master/README.md](https://github.com/jamescun/wg-api/blob/master/README.md), or simply use the provided docker-compose file from above.

### API_LISTEN_IP
Due to the fact that the wg-api container operates on the host network, the wg-gen-web container cannot directly talk to the API. Thus the docker-host gateway IP of the wg-gen-web container has to be used. If the default bridge network (docker0) is used, this IP should be `172.17.0.1`. If a custom network is used, you can find the gateway IP by inspecting the output of:
```
docker network inspect <network name>
```
Use the IP address found for **Gateway** as the **API_LISTEN_IP**.

Please feel free to test and report any bugs.
