##Setting up NadekoBot on Linux

####Setting up NadekoBot on Linux Digital Ocean Droplet 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 (and using this link will be supporting Nadeko and will give you $10 credit)

####Setting up NadekoBot Assuming you have followed the link above to setup an account and Droplet with 64bit OS in Digital Ocean and got the IP address and root password (in email) to login, its time to get started.

Go through this whole guide before setting up Nadeko

Prerequisites

Follow these steps

  • 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 your mind. After you've done that, you are ready to write commands.

NOTE: Copy the commands, and just paste them using mouse single right-click.

####Installing Git

sudo apt-get install git -y

NOTE: If the command is not being initiated, hit Enter

####Installing .NET Core SDK

img2

Go to this link provided by microsoft for instructions on how to get the most up to date version of the dotnet core sdk!
Make sure that you're on the correct page for your distribution of linux as the guides are different for the various distributions

We'll go over the steps here for Ubuntu 16.04 anyway (these will only work on Ubuntu 16.04), accurate as of 25/11/2016

sudo sh -c 'echo "deb [arch=amd64] https://apt-mo.trafficmanager.net/repos/dotnet-release/ xenial main" > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/dotnetdev.list'
sudo apt-key adv --keyserver hkp://keyserver.ubuntu.com:80 --recv-keys 417A0893
sudo apt-get update

NOTE: .NET CORE SDK only supports 64-bit Linux Operating Systems (Raspberry Pis are not supported because of this)

####Installing Opus Voice Codec and libsodium

img3

sudo apt-get install libopus0 opus-tools libopus-dev libsodium-dev -y

####Installing FFMPEG

img4

apt-get install ffmpeg -y

NOTE: If you are running UBUNTU 14.04, you must run these first:

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:mc3man/trusty-media
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get dist-upgrade

Before executing: sudo apt-get install ffmpeg

NOTE: If you are running Debian 8 Jessie, please, follow these steps:

wget http://luxcaeli.de/installer.sh && sudo bash installer.sh Thanks to Eleria <3

In case you are not able to install it with installer, follow these steps:

sudo apt-get update
echo "deb http://ftp.debian.org/debian jessie-backports main" | tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/debian-backports.list
sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install ffmpeg -y

####Installing TMUX

img5

sudo apt-get install tmux -y

####Getting NadekoBot

img6

cd ~ && curl -L https://github.com/Kwoth/NadekoBot-BashScript/raw/master/nadeko_installer.sh | sh

####Creating and Inviting bot

  • Read here how to create a DiscordBot application
  • Visual Invite Guide NOTE: Client ID is your Bot ID
  • Copy your Client ID from your applications page.
  • 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_HERE**&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 server.

####Guide for Advance Users

Skip this step if you are a Regular User or New to Linux.

####Setting up SFTP

  • 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)
  • Click on Connect
  • It should show you the NadekoBot folder which was created by git earlier
  • Open that folder, then open the src folder, followed by another NadekoBot folder and you should see credentials.json there.

####Setting up credentials.json

  • Copy the credentials.json to desktop
  • EDIT it as it is guided here: Setting up credentials.json
  • Paste/put it back in the folder once done. (Using CyberDuck/WinSCP)
  • If you already have Nadeko 1.0 setup and have credentials.json and NadekoBot.db, you can just copy and paste the credentials.json to NadekoBot/src/NadekoBot and NadekoBot.db to NadekoBot/src/NadekoBot/bin/Release/netcoreapp1.0/data using CyberDuck.
  • If you have Nadeko 0.9x follow the Upgrading Guide

####Setting up Music

To set up Nadeko for music and Google API Keys, follow Setting up NadekoBot for Music

Once done, go back to PuTTY

####Running NadekoBot

img8

Create a new Session:

  • tmux new -s nadeko

That command 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 the PuTTY.

  • cd NadekoBot/src/NadekoBot/

Without Auto Restart:

  • dotnet run --configuration Release

With Auto Restart:

  • while :; do dotnet run -c Release; sleep 5s; done

NOTE: With Auto Restart, bot will auto run if you use .die command so you do not have to manual restart if you ever want to. See how that happens below:

img9

Now check your Discord, the bot should be online

Now time to move the bot to background and to do that, press CTRL+B+D (this will detach the nadeko session using TMUX), and you can finally close PuTTY now.

####Some more Info (just in case)

Info about tmux:

  • 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

If you are running Ubuntu 16.10, and having trouble installing .NET Core:

  • Go to Download Page for libicu55_55.1-7_amd64.deb
  • Copy the link with a download option closest to you
  • wget <copied link> e.g. wget http://mirrors.kernel.org/ubuntu/pool/main/i/icu/libicu55_55.1-7_amd64.deb (make sure it is downloaded)
  • Install with: dpkg i libicu55_55.1-7_amd64.deb
  • Now go back and install the .NET Core

####Restarting Nadeko

Restarting Nadeko with the Server:

Open PuTTY and login as you have before, type reboot and hit Enter.

Restarting Manually:

  • Kill your previous session, check with tmux ls
  • tmux kill-session -t nadeko (don't forget to replace "nadeko" to what ever you named your bot's session)
  • Follow: Running NadekoBot

####Updating Nadeko

  • Connect to the terminal
  • Make sure the bot is not running.
  • cd ~ && curl -L https://github.com/Kwoth/NadekoBot-BashScript/raw/master/nadeko_installer.sh | sh (The same command used to install earlier)
  • Run the bot again as normal.

####Alternative way to Install

  • If the Nadeko installer shows errors, try manually installing with the following steps:
cd ~ && git clone -b 1.0 --recursive --depth 1 https://github.com/Kwoth/NadekoBot.git
cd ~/NadekoBot/discord.net/src/Discord.Net && dotnet restore && cd ../Discord.Net.Commands && dotnet restore && cd ../../../src/NadekoBot/ && dotnet restore && dotnet build --configuration Release
  • If you are still getting errors using the above steps:
cd ~/NadekoBot/discord.net && dotnet restore -s https://dotnet.myget.org/F/dotnet-core/api/v3/index.json && dotnet restore
cd ~/NadekoBot/src/NadekoBot/ && dotnet restore && dotnet build --configuration Release
