# ovpn-admin
Simple web UI to manage OpenVPN users, their certificates & routes in Linux. While backend is written in Go, frontend is based on Vue.js.
Originally created in [Flant](https://flant.com/) for internal needs & used for years, then updated to be more modern and [publicly released](https://blog.flant.com/introducing-ovpn-admin-web-interface-for-openvpn/) in March'21. Your contributions are welcome!
## Features
* Adding OpenVPN users (generating certificates for them);
* Revoking/restoring users certificates;
* Generating ready-to-user config files;
* Providing metrics for Prometheus, including certificates expiration date, number of (connected/total) users, information about connected users;
* (optionally) Specifying CCD (`client-config-dir`) for each user;
* (optionally) Operating in a master/slave mode (syncing certs & CCD with other server);
* (optionally) Specifying/changing password for additional authorization in OpenVPN.

## Installation
### Disclaimer
This tool uses external calls for `bash`, `coreutils` and `easy-rsa`, thus **Linux systems only are supported** at the moment.
### 1. Docker
There is a ready-to-use [docker-compose.yaml](https://github.com/flant/ovpn-admin/blob/master/docker-compose.yaml), so you can just change/add values you need and start it with [start.sh](https://github.com/flant/ovpn-admin/blob/master/start.sh).
Requirements. You need [Docker](https://docs.docker.com/get-docker/) and [docker-compose](https://docs.docker.com/compose/install/) installed.
Commands to execute:
```bash
git clone https://github.com/flant/ovpn-admin.git
cd ovpn-admin
./start.sh
```
### 2. Building from source
Requirements. You need Linux with the following components installed:
- [golang](https://golang.org/doc/install)
- [packr2](https://github.com/gobuffalo/packr#installation)
- [nodejs/npm](https://nodejs.org/en/download/package-manager/)
Commands to execute:
```bash
git clone https://github.com/flant/ovpn-admin.git
cd ovpn-admin
./bootstrap.sh
./build.sh
./ovpn-admin
```
(Please don't forgot to configure all needed params in advance.)
### 3. Prebuilt binary (WIP)
You can also download & use prebuilt binaries from the [releases](https://github.com/flant/ovpn-admin/releases) page — just choose a relevant tar.gz file.
