Planned configurations for mainnet

$3

- voting delay (time between a proposal is submitted and the voting is opened): 0 blocks, as for us this process is done beforehand in the governance forum
- guardian: Aave Guardian multisig
- executors whitelisted: Executor (short) and Executor (long)
- owner (entity able to change the strategy, voting delay and authorize/unauthorize executors): Executor 2, the long timelock

$3

It will control the whole Aave protocol v1, the token distributor used in v1, the contract collecting the fees of v1, the Reserve Ecosystem of AAVE and any change in this timelock itself

- admin (the only address enable to interact with this executor): Aave Governance v2
- delay (time between a proposals passes and its actions get executed): 1 day
- grace period (time after the delay during which the proposal can be executed): 5 days
- proposition threshold: 0.5%
- voting duration: 3 days
- vote differential: 0.5%
- quorum: 2%

$3

It will control the upgradeability of the AAVE token, the stkAAVE, any change in the parameters of the Governance v2 and any change in the parameters of this timelock itself

- admin: Aave Governance v2
- delay: 7 days
- grace period: 5 days
- proposition threshold: 2%
- voting duration: 10 days
- vote differential: 15%
- quorum: 20%

$3

- Based on AAVE+stkAAVE
- Voting and proposition power are: balanceOfAAVE + delegationReceivedOfAAVE + balanceOfstkAAVE + delegationReceivedOfstkAAVE (with delegation being voting or proposition depending on the case)
- Total voting and proposition supply: AAVE supply

Getting Started

You can install @aave/governance-v2 as an NPM package in your Hardhat, Buidler or Truffle project to import the contracts and interfaces:

npm install @aave/governance-v2

Import at Solidity files:

``
import {IAaveGovernanceV2} from "@aave/governance-v2/contracts/interfaces/IAaveGovernanceV2.sol";

contract Misc {

function vote(uint256 proposal, bool support) {
IAaveGovernanceV2(pool).submitVote(proposal, support);
{...}
}
}
`

The JSON artifacts with the ABI and Bytecode are also included into the bundled NPM package at artifacts/ directory.

Import JSON file via Node JS require:

`
const GovernanceV2Artifact = require('@aave/governance-v2/artifacts/contracts/governance/AaveGovernanceV2.sol/AaveGovernanceV2.json');

// Log the ABI into console
console.log(GovernanceV2Artifact.abi)
`

Setup

The repository uses Docker Compose to manage sensitive keys and load the configuration. Prior any action like test or deploy, you must run docker-compose up to start the contracts-env container, and then connect to the container console via docker-compose exec contracts-env bash.

Follow the next steps to setup the repository:

- Install docker and docker-compose
- Create an enviroment file named .env and fill the next enviroment variables

Test

For running the test suite, run:

`
docker-compose run contracts-env npm run test
`

For running coverage, run:

`
docker-compose run contracts-env npm run coverage
