ERC20Upgradeable

Implementation of the {IERC20} interface. This implementation is agnostic to the way tokens are created. This means that a supply mechanism has to be added in a derived contract using {_mint}. For a generic mechanism see {ERC20PresetMinterPauser}. TIP: For a detailed writeup see our guide https://forum.zeppelin.solutions/t/how-to-implement-erc20-supply-mechanisms/226. We have followed general OpenZeppelin Contracts guidelines: functions revert instead returning false on failure. This behavior is nonetheless conventional and does not conflict with the expectations of ERC20 applications. Additionally, an {Approval} event is emitted on calls to {transferFrom}. This allows applications to reconstruct the allowance for all accounts just by listening to said events. Other implementations of the EIP may not emit these events, as it isn't required by the specification. Finally, the non-standard {decreaseAllowance} and {increaseAllowance} functions have been added to mitigate the well-known issues around setting allowances. See {IERC20-approve}.

Methods​

allowance​

function allowance(address owner, address spender) external view returns (uint256)

See {IERC20-allowance}.

Parameters​

NameTypeDescription
owneraddressundefined
spenderaddressundefined

Returns​

NameTypeDescription
_0uint256undefined

approve​

function approve(address spender, uint256 amount) external nonpayable returns (bool)

See {IERC20-approve}. NOTE: If amount is the maximum uint256, the allowance is not updated on transferFrom. This is semantically equivalent to an infinite approval. Requirements: - spender cannot be the zero address.

Parameters​

NameTypeDescription
spenderaddressundefined
amountuint256undefined

Returns​

NameTypeDescription
_0boolundefined

balanceOf​

function balanceOf(address account) external view returns (uint256)

See {IERC20-balanceOf}.

Parameters​

NameTypeDescription
accountaddressundefined

Returns​

NameTypeDescription
_0uint256undefined

decimals​

function decimals() external view returns (uint8)

Returns the number of decimals used to get its user representation. For example, if decimals equals 2, a balance of 505 tokens should be displayed to a user as 5.05 (505 / 10 ** 2). Tokens usually opt for a value of 18, imitating the relationship between Ether and Wei. This is the value {ERC20} uses, unless this function is overridden; NOTE: This information is only used for display purposes: it in no way affects any of the arithmetic of the contract, including {IERC20-balanceOf} and {IERC20-transfer}.

Returns​

NameTypeDescription
_0uint8undefined

decreaseAllowance​

function decreaseAllowance(address spender, uint256 subtractedValue) external nonpayable returns (bool)

Atomically decreases the allowance granted to spender by the caller. This is an alternative to {approve} that can be used as a mitigation for problems described in {IERC20-approve}. Emits an {Approval} event indicating the updated allowance. Requirements: - spender cannot be the zero address. - spender must have allowance for the caller of at least subtractedValue.

Parameters​

NameTypeDescription
spenderaddressundefined
subtractedValueuint256undefined

Returns​

NameTypeDescription
_0boolundefined

increaseAllowance​

function increaseAllowance(address spender, uint256 addedValue) external nonpayable returns (bool)

Atomically increases the allowance granted to spender by the caller. This is an alternative to {approve} that can be used as a mitigation for problems described in {IERC20-approve}. Emits an {Approval} event indicating the updated allowance. Requirements: - spender cannot be the zero address.

Parameters​

NameTypeDescription
spenderaddressundefined
addedValueuint256undefined

Returns​

NameTypeDescription
_0boolundefined

name​

function name() external view returns (string)

Returns the name of the token.

Returns​

NameTypeDescription
_0stringundefined

symbol​

function symbol() external view returns (string)

Returns the symbol of the token, usually a shorter version of the name.

Returns​

NameTypeDescription
_0stringundefined

totalSupply​

function totalSupply() external view returns (uint256)

See {IERC20-totalSupply}.

Returns​

NameTypeDescription
_0uint256undefined

transfer​

function transfer(address to, uint256 amount) external nonpayable returns (bool)

See {IERC20-transfer}. Requirements: - to cannot be the zero address. - the caller must have a balance of at least amount.

Parameters​

NameTypeDescription
toaddressundefined
amountuint256undefined

Returns​

NameTypeDescription
_0boolundefined

transferFrom​

function transferFrom(address from, address to, uint256 amount) external nonpayable returns (bool)

See {IERC20-transferFrom}. Emits an {Approval} event indicating the updated allowance. This is not required by the EIP. See the note at the beginning of {ERC20}. NOTE: Does not update the allowance if the current allowance is the maximum uint256. Requirements: - from and to cannot be the zero address. - from must have a balance of at least amount. - the caller must have allowance for from's tokens of at least amount.

Parameters​
