✅Borrow and Repay

Intro

Borrow and Repay

In this section we are going to implement the borrower's functions borrow and repay. The following concepts will be covered:

• collateral

• account liquidity: calculate how much can I borrow?

• open price feed: USD price of token to borrow

• enter market and borrow

• borrowed balance (includes interest)

• borrow rate

• repay borrow

TestCompoundErc20.sol

Setup

Initialize Compound controller and price feed:

// borrow and repay //
Comptroller public comptroller = Comptroller(0x3d9819210A31b4961b30EF54bE2aeD79B9c9Cd3B);
PriceFeed public priceFeed = PriceFeed(0x922018674c12a7F0D394ebEEf9B58F186CdE13c1);

Collateral

Query collateral factor via comptroller.markets():

// collateral
function getCollateralFactor() external view returns (uint) {
    (bool isListed, uint colFactor, bool isComped) = comptroller.markets(
        address(cToken)
    );
    return colFactor; // divide by 1e18 to get in %
}

Account Liquidity

How much can I borrow? We can query the maximal amount we can borrow via comptroller.getAccountLiquidity():

// account liquidity - calculate how much can I borrow?
// sum of (supplied balance of market entered * col factor) - borrowed
function getAccountLiquidity()
    external
    view
    returns (uint liquidity, uint shortfall)
{
    // liquidity and shortfall in USD scaled up by 1e18
    (uint error, uint _liquidity, uint _shortfall) = comptroller.getAccountLiquidity(
        address(this)
    );
    // error == 0 means no error
    require(error == 0, "error");
    // normal circumstance - liquidity > 0 and shortfall == 0
    // liquidity > 0 means account can borrow up to `liquidity`
    // shortfall > 0 is subject to liquidation, you borrowed over limit
    return (_liquidity, _shortfall);
}

shortfall > 0 means borrowing amount exceeds limit and the collateral is facing liquidation. Under normal circumstances we want liquidity > 0 and shortfall == 0.

_liquidity is in USD.

Price Feed

USD price for borrowing token can be queried via priceFeed.getUnderlyingPrice():

// open price feed - USD price of token to borrow
function getPriceFeed(address _cToken) external view returns (uint) {
    // scaled up by 1e18
    return priceFeed.getUnderlyingPrice(_cToken);
}

We need this function to compute how many cTokens we can borrow, since _liquidity divided by price gives us the amount of cTokens we can borrow.

borrow() - borrower enters market and borrows loan

We are going to build the borrow() function on top of the helper functions we just wrote. Here is the plan:

• Step 1: enter market

• Step 2: check account liquidity (how much we can borrow in USD)

• Step 3: calculate max amount of cTokens that we can borrow

• Step 4: borrow 50% of max borrow

Step 1: enter market

// enter market
// enter the supply market so you can borrow another type of asset
address[] memory cTokens = new address[](1);
cTokens[0] = address(cToken);
uint[] memory errors = comptroller.enterMarkets(cTokens);
require(errors[0] == 0, "Comptroller.enterMarkets failed.");

Step 2: check account liquidity (how much we can borrow in USD)

// check liquidity
(uint error, uint liquidity, uint shortfall) = comptroller.getAccountLiquidity(
    address(this)
);
require(error == 0, "error");
require(shortfall == 0, "shortfall > 0");
require(liquidity > 0, "liquidity = 0");

Step 3: calculate max amount of cTokens that we can borrow

// calculate max borrow
uint price = priceFeed.getUnderlyingPrice(_cTokenToBorrow);
    
// liquidity - USD scaled up by 1e18
// price - USD scaled up by 1e18
// decimals - decimals of token to borrow
uint maxBorrow = (liquidity * (10**_decimals)) / price;
require(maxBorrow > 0, "max borrow = 0");

Step 4: borrow 50% of max borrow

// borrow 50% of max borrow
uint amount = (maxBorrow * 50) / 100;
require(CErc20(_cTokenToBorrow).borrow(amount) == 0, "borrow failed");

Here is the complete implementation of borrow():

// enter market and borrow
function borrow(address _cTokenToBorrow, uint _decimals) external {
    // enter market
    // enter the supply market so you can borrow another type of asset
    address[] memory cTokens = new address[](1);
    cTokens[0] = address(cToken);
    uint[] memory errors = comptroller.enterMarkets(cTokens);
    require(errors[0] == 0, "Comptroller.enterMarkets failed.");

    // check liquidity
    (uint error, uint liquidity, uint shortfall) = comptroller.getAccountLiquidity(
        address(this)
    );
    require(error == 0, "error");
    require(shortfall == 0, "shortfall > 0");
    require(liquidity > 0, "liquidity = 0");

    // calculate max borrow
    uint price = priceFeed.getUnderlyingPrice(_cTokenToBorrow);

    // liquidity - USD scaled up by 1e18
    // price - USD scaled up by 1e18
    // decimals - decimals of token to borrow
    uint maxBorrow = (liquidity * (10**_decimals)) / price;
    require(maxBorrow > 0, "max borrow = 0");

    // borrow 50% of max borrow
    uint amount = (maxBorrow * 50) / 100;
    require(CErc20(_cTokenToBorrow).borrow(amount) == 0, "borrow failed");
}

Two utility functions related to borrow:

// borrowed balance (includes interest)
// not view function
function getBorrowedBalance(address _cTokenBorrowed) public returns (uint) {
    return CErc20(_cTokenBorrowed).borrowBalanceCurrent(address(this));
}

// borrow rate
function getBorrowRatePerBlock(address _cTokenBorrowed) external view returns (uint) {
    // scaled up by 1e18
    return CErc20(_cTokenBorrowed).borrowRatePerBlock();
 }

repay() - borrower repays loan

Repay the borrowed cTokens via CErc20.repayBorrow():

// repay borrow
function repay(
    address _tokenBorrowed,
    address _cTokenBorrowed,
    uint _amount
) external {
    IERC20(_tokenBorrowed).approve(_cTokenBorrowed, _amount);
    // _amount = 2 ** 256 - 1 means repay all
    require(CErc20(_cTokenBorrowed).repayBorrow(_amount) == 0, "repay failed");
}
