[Bug Report] [WARN] [RateLimiter]: Encountered 429 on route

[dandroid126]

Bug Description

Getting errors every second in the journalctl with the below warning, and commands issued through discord are significantly delayed. The amount of delay appears to get worse as time goes on. After restarting the service, the bot responds to commands like normal. After about 2 hours, command responses are delayed by about 80 seconds. After 12+ hours, command responses are delayed by 2+ hours. I am only playing a single default playlist which contains 111 local songs. I'm not sure the exact repro steps, but this is the setup I currently have.

EDIT: Found out that this does not happen unless I use the nowplaying command. Updating the repro steps reflect this.

We were having this issue with our deployment of JMusicBot a few minutes ago. Member's commands were taking multiple seconds to get a response, and the RateLimiter messages kept piling up in the log.

It seems that the culprit this time was a reply to a !nowplaying command from earlier in the same session that was still being updated by the bot; once I manually deleted that message from the channel, the RateLimiter messages ceased to appear in the log, and commands such as !ping got a response instantly.

Seems like merging the fix may take some time, so you might want to use a custom build from my branch. Build process isn't described anywhere, but is simple, the prerequisites are installed JDK and Maven.

1. git clone https://github.com/r4nx/MusicBot.git
2. cd MusicBot
3. git switch update-np
4. mvn clean package

The .jar file you need is located at target/JMusicBot-Snapshot-All.jar. Then you'll be able to either increase the interval of updating with updatenptime option, or disable it completely with updatenp = false. See default config for reference.

Hope that helps.

If you set npimages = true in config.txt, it won't update Now Playing embeds anymore.
