how to use ethers to interact with complex contract function?

[apiscerena]

if contract function is payable and needs to receive ether and erc20 tokens in order to complete the function calling, how to construct the transaction using ethers? I didn't find any ethers docs and examples to construct such kind of raw transaction?

Can you give an example? You want to send ether and an erc20 token in the same transaction?

Also, have you checked out getting started?

[apiscerena]

exactly, send ether and erc20 token in the same transaction.

[ricmoo]

That’s not generally possible in Ethereum. You would either need an erc-20 token designed for the purpose of forwarding ether (I do not know of any token with that functionality) or use a contract wallet which would own both the token (or be approved for it) and either forward ether from the EOA or own the ether in the first place.

This is definitely advanced and you would need to write a solidity contract to handle this...

Does that make sense?

thanks, I see. Really appreciate your answer.
