This is a sample (incomplete) implementation of the Leaky Bucket Algorithm for API Rate limiting
- Clone the repo
git clone https://github.com/Bhupesh-V/ratelimiter-demo - Start the server
go run main.go
Try visiting the dev server at localhost:8080 and making quick requests. Play with capacity in ratelimiter.CreateUserBucket()
- Fix support for concurrent requests
- Add benchmarks
- Better interface to choose between the 4 algorithms for rate-limiting
- Pick user-ids, tokens from env or some kind of configuration
- Interface for reading from a global distributed cache
- Interface for making requests/user count configurable
