RedisRateLimit

Action rate limits are applied at a per-key basis in unit time (minutes, hourly, daily ...). By using Redis, this library allows to control actions across multiple servers

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

Get an access when the rate limit is not exeeded.
Restrict access for 127.0.0.1 ip address. The number of access will not exceed 60 per minute

$ redis = Redis.new
$ client = "127.0.0.1"
$ ratelimit = MinuteRateLimit.new('clients', redis: redis)
$ ratelimit.get_access(client)

Response

  {
    'pass' => true,
    'RateLimit' =>
    {
      'X-RateLimit-Limit' => 60,
      'X-RateLimit-Remaining' => 59,
      'X-RateLimit-Counter' => 1,
      'X-RateLimit-Reset' => 'Mon, 27 Feb 2017 15:59:11 UTC +00:00'
    }
  }
