[ratelimiting] X-RateLimit-Reset #233

Closed montanaflynn closed 4 years ago

montanaflynn commented 9 years ago

The rate-limit plugin should return a third header for when the time-frame expires and the limit resets. This is especially important for people writing code to avoid going over their limits.

Here's how GitHub defines the header:

Header Name Description
X-RateLimit-Reset The time at which the current rate limit window resets in UTC epoch seconds.

Since we support multiple rate-limit timeframes we would need to make it the format chosen in https://github.com/Mashape/kong/pull/224
