If you want Nadeko to play music for you 24/7 without having to hosting it on your PC and want to keep it cheap, reliable and convenient as possible, you can try Nadeko on Linux Digital Ocean Droplet using the link [DigitalOcean][DigitalOcean] (and using this link will be supporting Nadeko and will give you **$10 credit**)
Assuming you have followed the link above to created an account in Digital Ocean and video to set up the bot until you get the `IP address and root password (in email)` to login, its time to begin.
- **Open PuTTY.exe** that you downloaded before, and paste or enter your `IP address` and then click **Open**.
If you entered your Droplets IP address correctly, it should show **login as:** in a newly opened window.
- Now for **login as:**, type `root` and hit enter.
- It should then, ask for password, type the `root password` you have received in your **email address registered with Digital Ocean**, then hit Enter.
*(as you are running it for the first time, it will most likely to ask you to change your root password, for that, type the "password you received through email", hit Enter, enter a "new password", hit Enter and confirm that "new password" again.*
**SAVE that new password somewhere safe not just in mind**. After you done that, you are ready to write commands.
**Copy and just paste** using **mouse right-click** (it should paste automatically)
Now we need to `unzip` the downloaded zip file and to do that, type the file name as it showed in your screen or just copy from the screen, should be like ` NadekoBot.vx.x.zip`
`unzip NadekoBot.vx.x.zip`
**^Do not copy-paste it**
####Setting up NadekoBot
- Open **CyberDuck**
- Click on **Open Connection** (top-left corner), a new window should appear.
- You should see **FTP (File Transfer Protocol)** in drop-down.
- Change it to **SFTP (SSH File Transfer Protocol)**
- Now, in **Server:** paste or type in your `Digital Ocean Droplets IP address`, leave `Port: 22` (no need to change it)
- In **Username:** type `root`
- In **Password:** type `the new root password (you changed at the start)`
- EDIT it as it is guided here: [Setting up Credentials.json](Windows Guide.md#setting-up-credentialsjson-file)
- Read here how to [Create DiscordBot application](https://github.com/miraai/NadekoBot/blob/dev/docs/guides/Windows%20Guide.md#creating-discordbot-application)
- Also if you already have nadeko setup and have `credentials.json`, `config.json`, `nadekobot.sqlite`, and `"permissions" folder`, you can just copy and paste it to the Droplets folder using CyberDuck.
**^this will create a new session named “nadeko”** `(you can replace “nadeko” with anything you prefer and remember its your session name) so you can run the bot in background without having to keep running PuTTY in the background.`
**CHECK THE BOT IN DISCORD, IF EVERYTHING IS WORKING**
Now time to **move bot to background** and to do that, press **CTRL+B+D** (this will ditach the nadeko session using TMUX), and you can finally close PuTTY now.
Copy your CLIENT ID (that's in the same Developer page where you brought your token) and replace `12345678` in this link: `https://discordapp.com/oauth2/authorize?client_id=12345678&scope=bot&permissions=66186303` with it. Go to that link and you will be able to add your bot to your server.
**NOW YOU HAVE YOUR OWN NADEKO BOT** `Thanks to Kwoth <3`
####Some more Info (just in case):
-If you want to **see the sessions** after logging back again, type `tmux ls`, and that will give you the list of sessions running.
-If you want to **switch to/ see that session**, type `tmux a -t nadeko` (**nadeko** is the name of the session we created before so, replace **“nadeko”** with the session name you created.)
-If you want to **kill** NadekoBot **session**, type `tmux kill-session -t nadeko`
