RateLimiting

A simple rate limiting application for demo purposes only. Previously, it only supports ETS but now it supports distributed DB with Mnensia and libcluster to handle node joining cluster. Goal is to make this configurable with different backends.

Installation

If available in Hex, the package can be installed by adding rate_limiting to your list of dependencies in mix.exs:

Tested on Elixir v1.10.1

def deps do
  [
    {:rate_limiting, "~> 0.1.5"}
  ]
end

To configure request count and duration:

config :rate_limiting,
 interval_seconds: 60,
 max_requests_count: 100

# Required config for mnesia disc mode
config :mnesia,
  dir: '.mnesia/#{Mix.env()}/#{node()}'

TODO:

Add tests!!!!
