*** WireGuard Module
The Waybar includes a custom WireGuard VPN status module that shows connection status, TX/RX stats, and peer info.
Setup:
1. Install openresolv (needed by wg-quick for DNS):
#+begin_src bash :tangle no
sudo pacman -S openresolv
#+end_src
2. Configure sudo for wg-quick (required for click-to-toggle binds):
#+begin_src bash :tangle no
echo "$USER ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: /usr/bin/wg-quick" | sudo tee /etc/sudoers.d/wireguard
#+end_src
3. Create a WireGuard config (if not exists):
#+begin_src bash :tangle no
sudo cp /etc/wireguard/work-laptop.conf /etc/wireguard/
sudo chmod 600 /etc/wireguard/work-laptop.conf
#+end_src
4. Refresh Waybar to pick up new config:
#+begin_src bash :tangle no
killall -q waybar && waybar -c ~/.config/waybar/config.jsonc & -s ~/.config/waybar/style.css &
#+end_src
Or use the launch script:
#+begin_src bash :tangle no
~/.config/waybar/launch.sh
#+end_src
Keybinds:
- ~$mainMod+Ctrl+V~ — Connect WireGuard (work-laptop)
- ~$mainMod+Ctrl+Shift+V~ — Disconnect WireGuard
The module polls /usr/bin/wg every 10 seconds. It shows a lock icon with TX/RX when connected, or an unlock icon when disconnected.
