🎯 How To Use

Example Syntax

const RateLimitHandler = require('./src/rateLimitHandler');

// Create a new rate limiter with a limit of 5 requests per minute
const rateLimiter = new RateLimitHandler(5, 60000);

// Handle incoming requests
if (rateLimiter.handleRequest()) {
  // Allow the request to proceed
  console.log('Request allowed');
} else {
  // Block the request
  console.log('Request blocked due to rate limiting');
}

Explanation

• This package provides a simple rate limiting handler for APIs. The RateLimitHandler class takes two parameters: limit, which specifies the maximum number of requests allowed within the given interval (in milliseconds). The handleRequest method is used to check whether a request should be allowed based on the current rate limit.

Return Value

• true: If the request is allowed within the rate limit.
• false: If the request exceeds the rate limit and should be blocked.
