IERC 20 Metadata Upgradeable

Interface for the optional metadata functions from the ERC20 standard. Available since v4.1.

Methods

allowance

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

Returns the remaining number of tokens that spender will be allowed to spend on behalf of owner through {transferFrom}. This is zero by default. This value changes when {approve} or {transferFrom} are called.

Parameters

Returns

approve

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

Sets amount as the allowance of spender over the caller's tokens. Returns a boolean value indicating whether the operation succeeded. IMPORTANT: Beware that changing an allowance with this method brings the risk that someone may use both the old and the new allowance by unfortunate transaction ordering. One possible solution to mitigate this race condition is to first reduce the spender's allowance to 0 and set the desired value afterwards: https://github.com/ethereum/EIPs/issues/20#issuecomment-263524729 Emits an {Approval} event.

Parameters

Returns

balanceOf

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

Returns the amount of tokens owned by account.

Parameters

Returns

decimals

function decimals() external view returns (uint8)

Returns the decimals places of the token.

Returns

name

function name() external view returns (string)

Returns the name of the token.

Returns

symbol

function symbol() external view returns (string)

Returns the symbol of the token.

Returns

totalSupply

function totalSupply() external view returns (uint256)

Returns the amount of tokens in existence.

Returns

transfer

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

Moves amount tokens from the caller's account to recipient. Returns a boolean value indicating whether the operation succeeded. Emits a {Transfer} event.

Parameters

Returns

transferFrom

function transferFrom(address sender, address recipient, uint256 amount) external nonpayable returns (bool)

Moves amount tokens from sender to recipient using the allowance mechanism. amount is then deducted from the caller's allowance. Returns a boolean value indicating whether the operation succeeded. Emits a {Transfer} event.

Parameters
