Prerequisites

• Soundcloud Account (if you want soundcloud support)
• Text Editor (TextWrangler, or equivalent) or outside editor such as Atom

####Installing Homebrew

/usr/bin/ruby -e "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/master/install)"

Run brew update to fetch the latest package data.

####Installing dependencies

brew install git
brew install ffmpeg
brew update && brew upgrade ffmpeg
brew install openssl
brew install opus
brew install opus-tools
brew install opusfile
brew install libffi
brew install libsodium
brew install tmux

####Installing .NET Core SDK

• ln -s /usr/local/opt/openssl/lib/libcrypto.1.0.0.dylib /usr/local/lib/
• ln -s /usr/local/opt/openssl/lib/libssl.1.0.0.dylib /usr/local/lib/
• Download the .NET Core SDK, found here.
• Open the .pkg file you downloaded and install it.
• ln -s /usr/local/share/dotnet/dotnet /usr/local/bin

####Check your FFMPEG

In case your FFMPEG wasnt installed properly (Optional)

• brew options ffmpeg
• brew install ffmpeg --with-x --with-y --with-z etc.
• brew update && brew upgrade (Update formulae and Homebrew itself && Install newer versions of outdated packages)
• brew prune (Remove dead symlinks from Homebrew’s prefix)
• brew doctor (Check your Homebrew installation for common issues)
• Then try brew install ffmpeg again.

####Installing xcode-select

Xcode command line tools. You will do this in Terminal.app by running the following command line:

xcode-select --install

A dialog box will open asking if you want to install xcode-select. Select install and finish the installation.

####Downloading and building Nadeko

METHOD I

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

####Creating DiscordBot application

• Go to the Discord developer application page.
• 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.
• Click on Create a Bot User and confirm it.
• Keep this window open for now.

####Setting up Credentials.json file

• Open up the NadekoBot folder, which should be in your home directory, then NadekoBot folder then src folder and then the additonal NadekoBot folder.
• In our NadekoBot folder you should have .json file named credentials.json. (Note: If you do not see a .json after credentials.json , do not add the **.json**. You most likely have "Hide file extensions" enabled.)
• If you mess up the setup of credentials.json, rename credentials_example.json to credentials.json.
• Open the file with your Text editor.
• In your applications page (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.
• Go to a server on discord and attempt to mention yourself, but put a backslash at the start as shown below
• So the message \@fearnlj01#3535 will appears as <@145521851676884992> after you send the message (to make it slightly easier, add the backslash after you type the mention out)
• The message will appear as a mention if done correctly, copy the numbers from the message you sent (145521851676884992) and replace the 0 on the OwnerIds section with your user ID shown earlier.
• Save credentials.json (make sure you aren't saving it as credentials.json.txt)
• If done correctly, you are now the bot owner. You can add multiple owners by seperating each owner ID with a comma within the square brackets.

####Running NadekoBot

• Using tmux

tmux new -s nadeko

^this will create a new session named “nadeko”
(you can replace “nadeko” with anything you prefer and remember its your session name).

• Using Screen

screen -S nadeko

^this will create a new screen named “nadeko”
(you can replace “nadeko” with anything you prefer and remember its your screen name).

• Start Nadeko using .NET Core:

cd ~/NadekoBot/src/NadekoBot/

dotnet run --configuration Release

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 detach the nadeko session using TMUX)

If you used Screen press CTRL+A+D (this will detach the nadeko screen)

####Inviting your bot to your server

• Invite Guide
• 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.
