Abstract rate limiter for nodejs

ratelimiter

Rate limiter for Node.js backed by Redis.

NOTE: Promise version available at async-ratelimiter.

Release Notes

v3.4.1 - #55 by @barwin - Remove splice operation.

v3.3.1 - #51 - Remove tidy option as it's always true.

v3.3.0 - #47 by @penghap - Add tidy option to clean old records upon saving new records. Drop support in node 4.

v3.2.0 - #44 by @xdmnl - Return accurate reset time for each limited call.

v3.1.0 - #40 by @ronjouch - Add reset milliseconds to the result object.

v3.0.2 - #33 by @promag - Use sorted set to limit with moving window.

v2.2.0 - #30 by @kp96 - Race condition when using async.times.

v2.1.3 - #22 by @coderhaoxin - Dev dependencies versions bump.

v2.1.2 - #17 by @waleedsamy - Add Travis CI support.

v2.1.1 - #13 by @kwizzn - Fixes out-of-sync TTLs after running decr().

v2.1.0 - #12 by @luin - Adding support for ioredis.

v2.0.1 - #9 by @ruimarinho - Update redis commands to use array notation.

v2.0.0 - API CHANGE - Change remaining to include current call instead of decreasing it. Decreasing caused an off-by-one problem and caller could not distinguish between last legit call and a rejected call.

  • db - redis connection instance
