limit-conn

Name

Limiting request concurrency plugin.

Attributes

Name Type Requirement Default Valid Description
conn integer required conn > 0 the maximum number of concurrent requests allowed. Requests exceeding this ratio (and below conn + burst) will get delayed(the latency seconds is configured by default_conn_delay) to conform to this threshold.
burst integer required burst >= 0 the number of excessive concurrent requests (or connections) allowed to be delayed.
default_conn_delay number required default_conn_delay > 0 the latency seconds of request when concurrent requests exceeding conn but below (conn + burst).
only_use_default_delay boolean optional false [true,false] enable the strict mode of the latency seconds. If you set this option to true, it will run strictly according to the latency seconds you set without additional calculation logic.
key_type string optional "var" ["var", "var_combination"] the type of key.
key string required the user specified key to limit the rate. If the key_type is "var", the key will be treated as a name of variable, like "remote_addr" or "consumer_name". If the key_type is "var_combination", the key will be a combination of variables, like "$remote_addr $consumer_name". If the value of the key is empty, remote_addr will be set as the default key.
rejected_code string optional 503 [200,...,599] the HTTP status code returned when the request exceeds conn + burst will be rejected.
rejected_msg string optional non-empty the response body returned when the request exceeds conn + burst will be rejected.
allow_degradation boolean optional false Whether to enable plugin degradation when the limit-conn function is temporarily unavailable. Allow requests to continue when the value is set to true, default false.

How To Enable

Here's an example, enable the limit-conn plugin on the specified route when setting key_type to var :

curl http://127.0.0.1:9080/apisix/admin/routes/1 -H 'X-API-KEY: edd1c9f034335f136f87ad84b625c8f1' -X PUT -d '
{
    "methods": ["GET"],
    "uri": "/index.html",
    "plugins": {
        "limit-conn": {
            "conn": 1,
            "burst": 0,
            "default_conn_delay": 0.1,
            "rejected_code": 503,
            "key_type": "var",
            "key": "http_a"
        }
    },
    "upstream": {
        "type": "roundrobin",
        "nodes": {
            "127.0.0.1:1980": 1
        }
    }
}'

Here's an example, enable the limit-conn plugin on the specified route when setting key_type to var_combination :

curl http://127.0.0.1:9080/apisix/admin/routes/1 -H 'X-API-KEY: edd1c9f034335f136f87ad84b625c8f1' -X PUT -d '
{
    "methods": ["GET"],
    "uri": "/index.html",
    "plugins": {
        "limit-conn": {
            "conn": 1,
            "burst": 0,
            "default_conn_delay": 0.1,
            "rejected_code": 503,
            "key_type": "var_combination",
            "key": "$consumer_name $remote_addr"
        }
    },
    "upstream": {
        "type": "roundrobin",
        "nodes": {
            "127.0.0.1:1980": 1
        }
    }
}'

You also can complete the above operation through the web interface, first add a route, then add limit-conn plugin: enable limit-conn plugin

Test Plugin

The parameters of the plugin enabled above indicate that only one concurrent request is allowed. When more than one concurrent request is received, will return 503 directly.

curl -i http://127.0.0.1:9080/index.html?sleep=20 &

curl -i http://127.0.0.1:9080/index.html?sleep=20
<html>
<head><title>503 Service Temporarily Unavailable</title></head>
<body>
<center><h1>503 Service Temporarily Unavailable</h1></center>
<hr><center>openresty</center>
</body>
</html>

This means that the limit request concurrency plugin is in effect.

Disable Plugin

When you want to disable the limit-conn plugin, it is very simple, you can delete the corresponding json configuration in the plugin configuration, no need to restart the service, it will take effect immediately:

curl http://127.0.0.1:9080/apisix/admin/routes/1 -H 'X-API-KEY: edd1c9f034335f136f87ad84b625c8f1' -X PUT -d '
{
    "methods": ["GET"],
    "uri": "/index.html",
    "id": 1,
    "plugins": {
    },
    "upstream": {
        "type": "roundrobin",
        "nodes": {
            "127.0.0.1:1980": 1
        }
    }
}'

The limit-conn plugin has been disabled now. It works for other plugins.
