####Guide
- Create a folder, name it `Nadeko`.
- Head to [Updater Releases Page][Updater] and download `WINDOWS.-.nadeupdater.7z`.
- Copy `WINDOWS.-.nadeupdater.7z` to the `Nadeko` (folder we created before) and extract everything.
- You will see a file `NadekoUpdater.bat ` and a folder `publish ` after extraction.
- Run/Launch/Open the file `NadekoUpdater.bat ` and you will see it running in cmd.exe asking you with **3 options** *1-3*.
- 1) Stable release - current stable release, but might not contain all the newest Nadeko updates.
- 2) Newest release - release with all features/upgrades.
- 3) Exit
- Press `2` on your keyboard and hit `Enter`. Type `y` and hit `Enter` again. Downloading might take a while, so just be patient and wait. When download is done, press `3` on your keyboard and close the updater.
- You should have a new folder named `NadekoBot` inside the `Nadeko` folder we previously created.
- Make sure you have installed both [Git][Git] and the [.NET core sdk][.NET SDK]
- Create a folder somewhere and name it `Nadeko`.
- Head to the [NadekoBot Releases Page][Releases] and download `ZipContainingAllTheInstallerFiles`.
- Copy `ZipContainingAllTheInstallerFiles` to the `Nadeko` folder that we created earlier, and extract everything.
- You will see a few files, most importantly, `NadekoInstaller.bat ` after extraction (You may not see the `.bat` part of the filename).
- Run/Launch/Open `NadekoInstaller.bat ` and you will see it running in the command prompt.
- Wait a while for the file to finish installing, it'll say when it's done in the command prompt.
- You should now have a new folder named `NadekoBot` inside the `Nadeko` folder we previously created.
- Run the `NadekoRun.bat` file and wait for windows to tell you dotnet has crashed, then choose to close
- If it still exists, you can safely delete the `NadekoInstall_Temp` folder.
####Creating DiscordBot application
- Go to [DiscordApp][DiscordApp].
- Go to [the Discord developer application page][DiscordApp].
- Log in with your Discord account.
- On the left side, press `New Application`.
- Fill out the `App Name` (your bot's name, in this case), put the image you want, and add an app description(optional).
- Create the application.
- Once the application is created, click on `Create a Bot User` and confirm it.
- Click on `Create a Bot User` and confirm that you do want to add a bot to this app.
- Keep this window open for now.
####Setting up Credentials.json file
- In our `NadekoBot` folder you should have `.json` file named `credentials_example.json`. (Note: If you do not see a **.json** after `credentials_example.json `, do not add the `**.json**`. You most likely have `"Hide file extensions"` enabled.)
- In our `NadekoBot` folder you should have another `NadekoBot` folder, then a `src` folder, then *another* `NadekoBot` folder, in this final folder, you should see a `.json` file named `credentials_example.json`. (Note: If you do not see a **.json** after `credentials_example.json `, do not add the `**.json**`. You most likely have `"Hide file extensions"` enabled.)
- Rename `credentials_example.json` to `credentials.json`.
- Open the file with your [Notepad++][Notepad++].
- In there you will see fields like `Token`, `ClientId`, `BotId`, `OwnerIDs`.
- In your [DiscordApp][DiscordApp], under `Bot User` part, you will see the `Token:click to reveal` part, click to reveal it.
- Copy your bot's token, and put it between `" "` in your `credentials.json` file.
- Copy `Client ID` and replace it with the example one in your `credentials.json` in `Client ID` **and** `BotID` field.
- Save your `credentials.json` but keep it open. We need to put your `User ID` and owner.
- Open the file with [Notepad++][Notepad++].
- In there you will see fields such as `Token`, `ClientId`, `BotId` and `OwnerIDs`.
- In your [applications page][DiscordApp] (the window you were asked to keep open earlier), under the `Bot User` section, you will see `Token:click to reveal`, click to reveal the token.
- Copy your bot's token, and on the `"Token"` line of your `credentials.json`, replace `null` with your bot token and put quotation marks before and after the token, like so `"Example.Token"`
- Copy the `Client ID` on the page and replace the null part of the `ClientId` line with it, and put quotation marks before and after, like earlier.
- Again, copy the same `Client ID` and replace the null part of the `BotId` line with it, and do **not** put quotation marks before and after the ID.
- Save your `credentials.json` but keep it open. We need to add your `User ID` as one of the `OwnerIds` shortly.
####Inviting your bot to your server
- [Invite Guide][Invite Guide]
- Create a new server in Discord.
- Copy your `Client ID` from your [DiscordApp][DiscordApp].
- Replace `12345678` in this link `https://discordapp.com/oauth2/authorize?client_id=12345678&scope=bot&permissions=66186303` with your `Client ID`.
- Link should look like this: `https://discordapp.com/oauth2/authorize?client_id=**YOUR_CLENT_ID**&scope=bot&permissions=66186303`.
- Go to newly created link and pick the server we created, and click `Authorize`.
- Bot should be added to your server.
- Copy your `Client ID` from your [applications page][DiscordApp].
- Replace the `12345678` in this link `https://discordapp.com/oauth2/authorize?client_id=12345678&scope=bot&permissions=66186303` with your `Client ID`.
- The link should now look like this: `https://discordapp.com/oauth2/authorize?client_id=**YOUR_CLENT_ID**&scope=bot&permissions=66186303`.
- Go to the newly created link and pick the server we created, and click `Authorize`.
- The bot should have been added to your new server.
####Starting the bot
- Enter your `NadekoBot` folder that should be (hopefully) in your `Nadeko` folder.
- Run `NadekoBot.exe` (Note: There is `NadekoBot.exe` and `NadekoBot.exe.config`, dont run the second one)
- Go to the folder which you extracted the zip to earlier, and run the `NadekoRun.bat` file
- Your bot should now be online in the server we added him to.
- Note: Your bot will be offline in case you close `NadekoBot.exe`.
- Note: Your bot will be offline in case you close the `NadekoBot` command prompt window.
####Setting up OwnerIds
- In the server where your bot is, in a text channel, type `.uid`
- Your `User ID` should show, copy it.
- Close `NadekoBot.exe`
- Replace your `User ID` in the `credentials.json` between `[ ]` and save the changes.
- Run `NadekoBot.exe` again.
- Now you are the bot owner.
- You can add `User IDs` from the other users by separating IDs with a comma if you want to have more owners.
`*Alternatively, you can download nadekobot from` [Releases][Releases] `and extract the zip yourself.
That is what updater does, except it makes it easier for you to update because it doesn't overwrite
important files.If you are downloading releases you will have to be careful about your config,
credentials, and other files you edited in order to preserve your data every time you update.`
- Replace the `null` section on the `OwnerIds` line with your user ID shown earlier and put a square bracket around each end of the ID like so, `[105635576866156544]`
- Run `NadekoRun.bat` again.
- If done correctly, you are now the bot owner.
- You can add multiple owner IDs by seperating them with a comma within the square brackets.
