Easiest way to add a function to ERC20.sol in ERC20PresetMinterPauser

Support Upgrades

Hi there,

I have a ERC20PresetMinterPauser contract in rinkeby. What would be the easiest way to add a function to the ERC20.sol contract and then upgrade the token?

Thanks,

CAA

Hi @CIX,

If you deployed an upgradeable contract with the ERC20PresetMinterPauser as the implementation, you could extend from this contract as a V2 and include the additional function.

For example, upgrading Box to BoxV2, we can extend from Box and add the new function.

// contracts/BoxV2.sol
// SPDX-License-Identifier: MIT
pragma solidity ^0.7.0;

import "./Box.sol";

contract BoxV2 is Box {
    // Increments the stored value by 1
    function increment() public {
        store(retrieve() + 1);
    }
}

Hi @CIX,

You are currently using OpenZeppelin Contracts Ethereum Package. If you are creating a new upgradeable contract (rather than upgrading as you can’t upgrade between Contracts Ethereum Package and Contracts Upgradeable) then you should use OpenZeppelin Contracts Upgradeable. https://docs.openzeppelin.com/contracts/4.x/upgradeable.

As an aside, I would avoid changing a token name where possible, as this may or may not be supported by various clients.

Are you upgrading an existing contract?
