This provides more reliable and maintainable runtime state extraction.
lib/network.py:
- Rewrite parse_networkctl_status() to parse JSON instead of text lines
- Add _bytes_to_ip() helper for converting address byte arrays to IP strings
- Extract addresses, gateway (from Routes), DNS, MAC, and state from structured JSON
- Add proper error handling for malformed JSON input
daemon/handlers/network.py:
- Update all 3 callers (get_interfaces, get_interface, save_interface) to use --json=short
- Fix get_interfaces to include runtime-only interfaces by unioning config and runtime names (minus lo), rather than only iterating config-defined interfaces
lib/state.py:
- Update _collect_networkd to use --json=short flag
tests/test_network.py, tests/test_network_integration.py:
- Update all test fixtures from text output to matching JSON structure
Vacuum Wall
A zone-based firewall appliance with a built-in SSL reverse proxy. Combines firewalld policy control, DHCP/DNS, WireGuard VPN, and automated certificate provisioning into a single device managed through one web UI.
Tech Stack
- Debian 13 (trixie) target platform
- Python 3.13+, Flask 3.x web UI
- firewalld (nftables backend), dnsmasq, nginx, WireGuard
- acme.sh for ACME certificates (ZeroSSL)
For Operators
Prerequisites
- Clean Debian 13 system with root access
- git installed
- One public-facing NIC (external) and at least one LAN NIC (internal)
- A DNS A record pointing to the appliance's public IP for the management domain
- Minimum hardware: 1 CPU, 512 MB RAM, 4 GB disk
Install (Production)
MGMT_DOMAIN=wall.example.com \
MGMT_PASS="strongpassword" \
MGMT_USER="admin" \
ACME_EMAIL="admin@example.com" \
bash install.sh
Install (Development)
./install.sh --dev --mgmt-pass strongpassword --acme-email "admin@example.com"
--dev auto-detects the repo's file owner as the service user, skips the safety warning about running as a regular user, and keeps file ownership dev-friendly.
| Flag | Env Var | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| -- | MGMT_DOMAIN |
No | Public domain for the management WebUI (auto-detected as hostname.local) |
--mgmt-pass |
MGMT_PASS |
Yes | HTTP basic auth password for the WebUI |
--mgmt-user |
MGMT_USER |
No | WebUI username (defaults to admin) |
--acme-email |
ACME_EMAIL |
Yes | ACME registration email (ZeroSSL by default) |
--user, -u |
USER_NAME |
No | System user for service (default: vacuum-wall) |
--path, -p |
INSTALL_DIR |
No | Install directory (default: repo root) |
--dev |
-- | No | Auto-detect repo owner as service user, skip safety warning |
--mgmt-domain |
MGMT_DOMAIN |
No | (alias for env var) |
--wan-iface |
WAN_IFACE |
No | WAN interface (auto-detected) |
--lan-ifaces |
LAN_IFACES |
No | LAN interfaces, comma-separated (auto-detected) |
CLI flags take precedence over environment variables. Run ./install.sh --help for full usage.
After installation, access the WebUI at https://<MGMT_DOMAIN>. The initial certificate is self-signed — use the Certs tab to issue a real one once DNS is propagating.
Next Steps
- Assign interfaces to zones from the Interfaces tab
- Configure DHCP ranges for your LAN
- Add proxy domains with ACME certificates
- Set up WireGuard (optional)
See docs/deployment.md for the full guide, including troubleshooting.
For Developers
Local Development
git clone <repo-url> && cd vacuum-wall
python3 -m venv .venv && . .venv/bin/activate
pip install -e ".[dev]"
Start the WebUI locally (binds to 127.0.0.1:9090):
.venv/bin/python webui/server.py
Lint and Format
.venv/bin/ruff check lib/ webui/ tests/
.venv/bin/ruff format lib/ webui/ tests/
All lib/ modules share lib.common utilities (run, run_proc, load_json, save_json, deep_merge, ensure_dirs) and have full type hints and __all__ exports. API blueprints share _ok/_error from webui.api.common.
Tests
.venv/bin/python -m pytest tests/ -v
Tests mock all subprocess calls (firewalld, acme.sh, WireGuard, nginx, dnsmasq) — no system services required. 192 tests across 5 test modules.
Documentation MCP Server
This project uses docs-mcp-server for grounded, real-time documentation lookups during development.
pipx install docs-mcp-server
docs-mcp init
Then run with Claude Code or Opencode to activate it. It automatically checks live docs before answering technical questions — no manual doc search needed.
