WETH Gateway

If you need to use native ETH (MATIC / AVAX in case of side chain market) in the protocol, it must first be wrapped into WETH (or WMATIC / WAVAX). The WETH Gateway contract is a helper contract to easily wrap and unwrap ETH (or MATIC / AVAX) as necessary when interacting with the protocol, since only ERC20 is used within protocol interactions.

The source code can be found here.

Methods

depositETH**()**

function depositETH(address lendingPool, address onBehalfOf, uint16 referralCode)

Deposits the msg.value amount of ETH into the protocol, minting the same amount of corresponding aWETH, and transferring them to the onBehalfOf address.

For referralCode, use the referral code: 0.

Ensure that the depositETH() transaction also includes the amount of ETH you are depositing in the msg.value.

Parameter Name
Type
Description

lendingPool

address

address of the targeted underlying lending pool

onBehalfOf

address

address whom will receive the aWETH. Use msg.sender when the vTokens should be sent to the caller.

referralCode

uint16

referral code for our referral program. Use 0 for no referral.

withdrawETH**()**

function withdrawETH(address lendingPool, uint256 amount, address to)

Withdraws amount of the WETH, unwraps it to ETH, and transfers the ETH to the to address.

Ensure you set the relevant ERC20 allowance of aWETH, before calling this function, so the WETHGateway contract can burn the associated aWETH.

Parameter Name
Type
Description

lendingPool

address

address of the targeted underlying lending pool

amount

uint256

amount deposited, expressed in wei units. Use type(uint).max to withdraw the entire balance.

to

address

address that will receive the unwrapped ETH

repayETH**()**

function repayETH(address lendingPool, uint256 amount, uint256 rateMode, address onBehalfOf)

Repays onBehalfOf's debt amount of ETH which has a rateMode.

Ensure that the repayETH() transaction also includes the amount of ETH you are repaying in the msg.value.

Parameter Name
Type
Description

lendingPool

address

address of the targeted underlying lending pool

amount

uint256

amount to be borrowed, expressed in wei units.

Use uint(-1) to repay the entire debt, ONLY when the repayment is not executed on behalf of a 3rd party.

In case of repayments on behalf of another user, it's recommended to send an _amount slightly higher than the current borrowed amount.

rateMode

uint256

the type of borrow debt.

Currently unused, must be > 0.

onBehalfOf

address

address of user who will incur the debt.

Use msg.sender when not calling on behalf of a different user.

borrowETH**()**

function borrowETH(address lendingPool, uint256 amount, uint256 interestRateMode, uint16 referralCode)

Borrows amount of WETH with interestRateMode, sending the amount of unwrapped WETH to msg.sender.

Parameter Name
Type
Description

lendingPool

address

address of the targeted underlying lending pool

amount

uint256

amount to be borrowed, expressed in wei units

interestRateMode

uint256

the type of borrow debt.

Currently unused, must be > 0.

referralCode

uint16

referral code for our referral program. Use 0 for no referral code.
