RedisRateLimit
If an application goes beyond quota defined by public APIs, they might ban it. To overcome this issue, developers have to wrap each call to public APIs and make sure they don't make more requests than allowed.
Or in another words, this gem helps you to respect the ratio limit defined by external services like Twilio or others before your account gets suspended.
Installation
Add this line to your application's Gemfile:
gem 'redis_rate_limit'
And then execute:
$ bundle
Or install it yourself as:
$ gem install redis_rate_limit
Usage
$redis = Redis.new
rate_limit = RedisRateLimit::RateLimit.new('Twilio', max_rpm: 60, redis: $redis)
rate_limite.safe_call do
twilio_sdk.send_verification_sms('+123456789')
end
Development
After checking out the repo, run bin/setup
to install dependencies. Then, run rake spec
to run the tests. You can also run bin/console
for an interactive prompt that will allow you to experiment.
To install this gem onto your local machine, run bundle exec rake install
. To release a new version, update the version number in version.rb
, and then run bundle exec rake release
, which will create a git tag for the version, push git commits and tags, and push the .gem
