Contracts discovery

Core contracts

Each interaction with Gearbox starts from retrieving the addresses of important contracts. AddressProvider stores the addresses of all core contracts.

functionreturn value
getACL()Address of ACL contract
getContractsRegister()Address of ContractsRegister
getAccountFactory()Address of AccountFactory
getDataCompressor()Address of DataCompressor
getGearToken()Address of GEAR token
getWethToken()Address of WETH token
getWETHGateway()Address of WETH Gateway
getPriceOracle()Address of PriceOracle
getTreasuryContract()Address of DAO Treasury Multisig

:::note AddressProvider stores the most up-to-date addresses. It is recommended to avoid caching Gearbox-related addresses for a long time and refresh them periodically through AddressProvider, since they can be changed by the governance. :::

Getting list of pools & credit managers

ContractsRegister keeps a list of all active pools and Credit Managers:

interface IContractsRegisterEvents {
    // emits each time when new pool was added to register
    event NewPoolAdded(address indexed pool);
 
    // emits each time when new credit Manager was added to register
    event NewCreditManagerAdded(address indexed creditManager);
}
 
/// @title Optimised for front-end Address Provider interface
interface IContractsRegister is IContractsRegisterEvents {
    //
    // POOLS
    //
 
    /// @dev Returns array of registered pool addresses
    function getPools() external view returns (address[] memory);
 
    /// @dev Returns pool address for i-element
    function pools(uint256 i) external returns (address);
 
    /// @return Returns quantity of registered pools
    function getPoolsCount() external view returns (uint256);
 
    /// @dev Returns true if address is pool
    function isPool(address) external view returns (bool);
 
    //
    // CREDIT MANAGERS
    //
 
    /// @dev Returns array of registered credit manager addresses
    function getCreditManagers() external view returns (address[] memory);
 
    /// @dev Returns pool address for i-element
    function creditManagers(uint256 i) external returns (address);
 
    /// @return Returns quantity of registered credit managers
    function getCreditManagersCount() external view returns (uint256);
 
    /// @dev Returns true if address is pool
    function isCreditManager(address) external view returns (bool);
}

Versioning

Each contract in the protocol has a function version which returns the current version as a uint256 value. Contract ABIs can change between versions, so it is recommended to get and verify the value before interacting with a particular contract.

Code snippet from CreditManager:

// Contract version
uint256 public constant override version = 2;
