Jordan Fearnley 554803b8a9 Guides -> 1.0
It took so long after the last mention since I was too stubborn to just
do this from a local git client for too long.

Linux and OS X guides both have things built one by one for now and I'll
only re-release the windows updater once I get the A-OK for not having
to build things one by one.

###Upgrading Nadeko from an older release

  • Navigate to your old nadeko folder
  • Follow the correct install process for your operating system, linked on the left hand side. Nadeko has some new dependencies, so make sure you get these as guided!
  • For upgrading, you can use your old credentials file without any issues and most data can also be migrated
  • Copy both the data folder and credentials.json from your old Nadeko installation, to the following folder
  • NadekoBot\src\NadekoBot - This may ask if you want to overwrite some files, this is perfectly fine to do.
  • Now launch the new Nadeko as the guide describes - it should now start.
  • In any channel, run the .migratedata command - nadeko will now attempt to migrate your old data to nadeko's new storage system
  • Your data should now have been migrated succesfully, restart nadeko and everything should be working as expected
