hello,
wg show, showconf .... output format is not easy to parse.
Can you add a json output , with all information about peers , conf (
endpoint, pubkey,handshake ... ) in a single line

Regards,

Hello Nicolas,

been there, asked that. The answer was negative.
I know, it is no fun to parse.
See here how I worked around it:

fa2235/applications/luci-app-wireguard/luasrc/view/wireguard.htm

JSON output would have saved me about 100+ lines of LUA code.

Still considering patching the wg util.
Hopefully, this LUA code helps you to get started. Feel free to share =
your solution, I am still interested in getting JSON out of wg for some =
other project.

Cheers,

Dan

Hey guys,

Seems like this isn't the first request for such a thing. I'll
investigate better means of generating bulk output, and might
eventually converge on JSON for that. Will keep you posted.
