|
*Note: If you want to make changes to Nadeko's source code, please follow the [From Source](#windows-from-source) guide instead.*
|
|
|
|
*If you have Windows 7 or a 32-bit system, please refer to the [From Source](#windows-from-source)) guide.*
|
|
|
|
#### Prerequisites
|
|
|
|
- Windows 8 or later (64-bit)
|
|
- [Create a Discord Bot application and invite the bot to your server](../creds-guide.md)
|
|
|
|
**Optional**
|
|
|
|
- [Notepad++] (makes it easier to edit your credentials)
|
|
- [Visual C++ 2010 (x86)] and [Visual C++ 2017 (x64)] (both are required if you want Nadeko to play music - restart Windows after installation)
|
|
|
|
#### Setup
|
|
|
|
- Download and run the [NadekoBot v3 Updater][Updater].
|
|
- Click on the + at the top left to create a new bot.
|
|

|
|
- Give your bot a name and then click **`Go to setup`** at the lower right.
|
|

|
|
- Click on **`DOWNLOAD`** at the lower right
|
|

|
|
- Click on **`Install`** next to **`Redis`**.
|
|
- Note: If Redis fails to install, install Redis manually here: [Redis Installer](https://github.com/MicrosoftArchive/redis/releases/tag/win-3.0.504) Download and run the **`.msi`** file.
|
|
- If you will use the music module, click on **`Install`** next to **`FFMPEG`** and **`Youtube-DL`**.
|
|
- If any dependencies fail to install, you can temporarily disable your Windows Defender/AV until you install them. If you don't want to, then read [the last section of this guide](#Manual-Prerequisite-Installation).
|
|
- When installation is finished, click on **`CREDS`** to the left of **`RUN`** at the lower right.
|
|
- Follow the guide on how to [Set up the creds.yml](../../creds-guide) file.
|
|
|
|
#### Starting the bot
|
|
|
|
- Either click on **`RUN`** button in the updater or run the bot via its desktop shortcut.
|
|
|
|
### If you get a "No owner channels created..." message. Please follow the creds guide again [**HERE**](../../creds-guide).
|
|
|
|
#### Updating Nadeko
|
|
|
|
- Make sure Nadeko is closed and not running
|
|
(Run `.die` in a connected server to ensure it's not running).
|
|
- Open NadekoBot Updater
|
|
- Click on your bot at the upper left (looks like a spy).
|
|
- Click on **`Check for updates`**.
|
|
- If updates are available, you will be able to click on the Update button.
|
|
- Launch the bot
|
|
- You've updated and are running again, easy as that!
|
|
|
|
#### Manual Prerequisite Installation
|
|
|
|
You can still install them manually:
|
|
|
|
- [Redis Installer](https://github.com/MicrosoftArchive/redis/releases/tag/win-3.0.504) - Download and run the **`.msi`** file
|
|
- [ffmpeg-32bit] | [ffmpeg-64bit] - Download the **appropriate version** for your system (32 bit if you're running a 32 bit OS, or 64 if you're running a 64bit OS). Unzip it, and move `ffmpeg.exe` to a path that's in your PATH environment variable. If you don't know what that is, then just move the `ffmpeg.exe` file to NadekoBot/system
|
|
- [youtube-dl] - Click to download the file. Then put `youtube-dl.exe` in a path that's in your PATH environment variable. If you don't know what that is, then just move the `youtube-dl.exe` file to NadekoBot/system
|
|
|
|
## **⚠ IF YOU ARE FOLLOWING THE GUIDE ABOVE, IGNORE THIS SECTION ⚠**
|
|
|
|
### Windows From Source
|
|
|
|
##### Prerequisites
|
|
|
|
**Install these before proceeding or your bot will not work!**
|
|
- [.net 6](https://dotnet.microsoft.com/download/dotnet/6.0) - needed to compile and run the bot
|
|
- [git](https://git-scm.com/downloads) - needed to clone the repository (you can also download the zip manually and extract it, but this guide assumes you're using git)
|
|
- [redis](https://github.com/MicrosoftArchive/redis/releases/download/win-3.0.504/Redis-x64-3.0.504.msi) - to cache things needed by some features and persist through restarts
|
|
|
|
##### Installation Instructions
|
|
|
|
Open PowerShell (press windows button on your keyboard and type powershell, it should show up; alternatively, right click the start menu and select Windows PowerShell), and navigate to the location where you want to install the bot (for example `cd ~/Desktop/`)
|
|
|
|
1. `git clone https://gitlab.com/kwoth/nadekobot -b v4 --depth 1`
|
|
2. `cd nadekobot`
|
|
3. `dotnet publish -c Release -o output/ src/NadekoBot/`
|
|
4. `cd output`
|
|
5. `cp creds_example.yml creds.yml`
|
|
6. Open `creds.yml` with your favorite text editor (Please don't use Notepad or WordPad. You can use Notepad++, VSCode, Atom, Sublime, or something similar)
|
|
7. [Enter your bot's token](#creds-guide)
|
|
8. Run the bot `dotnet NadekoBot.dll`
|
|
9. 🎉
|
|
|
|
##### Update Instructions
|
|
|
|
Open PowerShell as described above and run the following commands:
|
|
|
|
1. Stop the bot
|
|
- ⚠️ Make sure you don't have your database, credentials or any other nadekobot folder open in some application, this might prevent some of the steps from executing succesfully
|
|
2. Navigate to your bot's folder, example:
|
|
- `cd ~/Desktop/nadekobot`
|
|
3. Pull the new version
|
|
- `git pull`
|
|
- ⚠️ If this fails, you may want to stash or remove your code changes if you don't know how to resolve merge conflicts
|
|
4. **Backup** old output in case your data is overwritten
|
|
- `cp -r -fo output/ output-old`
|
|
5. Build the bot again
|
|
- `dotnet publish -c Release -o output/ src/NadekoBot/`
|
|
6. Remove old strings and aliases to avoid overwriting the updated versions of those files
|
|
- ⚠ If you've modified said files, back them up instead
|
|
- `rm output-old/data/aliases.yml`
|
|
- `rm -r output-old/data/strings`
|
|
7. Copy old data
|
|
- `cp -Recurse .\output-old\data\ .\output\ -Force`
|
|
8. Copy creds.yml
|
|
- `cp output-old/creds.yml output/`
|
|
9. Run the bot
|
|
- `cd output`
|
|
- `dotnet NadekoBot.dll`
|
|
|
|
🎉 Enjoy

#### Music prerequisites
|
|

|
- [ffmpeg-32bit] | [ffmpeg-64bit] - Download the **appropriate version** for your system (32 bit if you're running a 32 bit OS, or 64 if you're running a 64bit OS). Unzip it, and move `ffmpeg.exe` to a path that's in your PATH environment variable. If you don't know what that is, just move the `ffmpeg.exe` file to `NadekoBot/output`.
|
|
- [youtube-dl] - Click to download the file, then move `youtube-dl.exe` to a path that's in your PATH environment variable. If you don't know what that is, just move the `youtube-dl.exe` file to `NadekoBot/system`.
