Settlement Contract
​
Settlement
A settlement comprises a list of traded tokens with their corresponding price in the batch, a list of trades to execute, and a list of interactions.
A solver monitors the on-chain liquidity and the orders that are available for being matched for then determining the clearing prices of the settlement, which orders will be included, and which extra liquidity is necessary from the blockchain.
Normally, all orders in a settlement are settled with uniform clearing prices, which means that every user receives the same price for the same token.
If the transaction does not revert, each order will be executed during a settlement and the user will receive the desired token after the settlement.
1.Interactions
Interactions allow solvers to execute arbitrary calls to any on-chain contract.
Normally, they are used to interact with other on-chain liquidity providers, for example, to make a swap call to Uniswap.
They can also be used for other purposes: for example, an interaction can be used to approve Uniswap for trading with the tokens stored in the settlement contract, as well as withdrawing the accumulating fee from the contracts when the amount becomes too large.
2.Trades
Trades contain a description of the users' orders, a signature for verifying its validity, and the executed amount (for partially fillable orders).
The contract decodes the order parameters from the trade.
The parameters of the order are verified for validity:
The signature for the order matches the user's address
The order is not expired
The order was not previously filled
The current prices are equal to or better than what is specified in the order
3.Order struct
Here is a complete list of the parameters of a GPv2 order and the corresponding type. This is the object that a user signs to validate its order.
Sell Token: the address of the token that is sold
Buy Token: the address of the token that is bought
Receiver: the address that will receive the proceedings of the trade. If this field is zero (the zero address 0x00...0), then the user who signed the trade is going to receive the funds
Sell Amount: the amount of sellToken that is sold in wei
Buy Amount: the amount of buyToken that is bought in wei
Valid To: the timestamp (in seconds) until which the order is valid
App Data: extra information about the order. It is ignored by the smart contract outside of signature verification, but may be used offchain for information on the order's origin or for referrals
Fee Amount: the amount of fees paid in sellToken wei
Kind: either sell or buy
Partially Fillable: whether the order is partially fillable or fill-or-kill
Sell Token Balance: from where the sell token balance is withdrawn. It can be erc20 (directly from the user's ERC-20 balance), external (from the user's ERC-20 balancer through Balancer's vault), or internal (from the user's Balancer internal balance)
Buy Token Balance: to where the buy token is deposited. It can be erc20 (directly to the user's ERC-20 balance) or internal (to the user's Balancer internal balance)
