######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 http://m.do.co/c/46b4d3d44795/ (and using this link will be supporting Nadeko and will give you **$10 credit**)
######Keep this helpful video handy https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=icV4_WPqPQk&feature=youtu.be (by klincheR) it contains how to set up the Digital Ocean droplet aswell.
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:
**DOWNLOAD and INSTALL CyberDuck** `(for accessing filesystem using SFTP)`
https://cyberduck.io
**Follow the steps below:**
**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 black window.
Now for **login as:**, type `root` and hit enter.
It should then, ask for password, type the `password` you have received in your **email address registered with Digital Ocean**, hit Enter
*(as you are running it for the first time, it will ask you to change your root password, for that, type the password you received through email, hit Enter, enter your 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)
echo "deb http://download.mono-project.com/repo/debian wheezy main" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/mono-xamarin.list
sudo apt-get update
</code></pre>
**Note if the command is not be initiated, hit Enter**
**2)**
<pre><codeclass="language-bash">echo "deb http://download.mono-project.com/repo/debian wheezy-apache24-compat main" | sudo tee -a /etc/apt/sources.list.d/mono-xamarin.list
Click on **Open Connection** (left-top 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 password you changed at the start`
Click on **Connect**
It should show you the new folder you created.
Open it.
Copy the `credentials_example.json` to desktop
EDIT it as it is guided here: https://github.com/Kwoth/NadekoBot/blob/master/README.md
Rename it to `credentials.json` and paste/put it back in the folder, from where you brought it.
You should see two files `credentials_example.json` and `credentials.json`
Also if you already have nadeko set up and have `credentials.json`, `config.json`, `nadekobot.sqlite`, and `permissions` folder, you can just paste it 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 run PuTTY in back ground.`
Now time to move bot to background so to do that, press **CTRL+B+D** (this will ditach the nadeko session for TMUX)
And if you want to see the session after logging again, type `tmux ls`, and that will give you the list of sessions running
And if you want to switch to 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.)**
