- Make sure to have a **RECENT** version of [youtube-dl](https://yt-dl.org/). If your distro doesn't package a recent version, see the section titled "Obtaining a recent youtube-dl binary".
- In `config.json`, find the line that says `"token"`. In that line, change the text that says `"insert your discord bot token here"` to whatever your bot token is (just look it up if you don't know how to get one). Remember to keep the `""` sorrounding the token.
## Setup
### Obtaining a recent youtube-dl binary
Some distributions like Debian don't ship a very recent version of youtube-dl, but there is a simple solution for running this bot nonetheless.
- Locally download the latest youtube-dl version **into the cloned repo**: `wget https://yt-dl.org/downloads/latest/youtube-dl`.
