IERC20Metadata

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

Name	Type	Description
owner	address	undefined
spender	address	undefined

Returns

Name	Type	Description
_0	uint256	undefined

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

Name	Type	Description
spender	address	undefined
amount	uint256	undefined

Returns

Name	Type	Description
_0	bool	undefined

balanceOf

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

Returns the amount of tokens owned by account.

Parameters

Name	Type	Description
account	address	undefined

Returns

Name	Type	Description
_0	uint256	undefined

decimals

function decimals() external view returns (uint8)

Returns the decimals places of the token.

Returns

Name	Type	Description
_0	uint8	undefined

name

function name() external view returns (string)

Returns the name of the token.

Returns

Name	Type	Description
_0	string	undefined

symbol

function symbol() external view returns (string)

Returns the symbol of the token.

Returns

Name	Type	Description
_0	string	undefined

totalSupply

function totalSupply() external view returns (uint256)

Returns the amount of tokens in existence.

Returns

Name	Type	Description
_0	uint256	undefined

transfer

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

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

Parameters

Name	Type	Description
to	address	undefined
amount	uint256	undefined

Returns

Name	Type	Description
_0	bool	undefined

transferFrom

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

Moves amount tokens from from to to 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

Name	Type	Description
from	address	undefined
to	address	undefined
amount	uint256	undefined

Returns

Name	Type	Description
