Description

I want to enable rate limiting for a particular consumer for a particular route.

So far I didn't find how can that be enabled.

Environment

Is this similar to your requirement: https://the-asf.slack.com/archives/CUC5MN17A/p1690449611274429?

I don't have ASF account to check.

No, my requirement is different, it's more like what I found a bit down the thread there: https://the-asf.slack.com/archives/CUC5MN17A/p1676970398154249

The problem with keys is that you can only specify the variable name, not the value.

Essentialy what I want is:

ConsumerA -> Route1 -> 10 rps
ConsumerA -> Route2 -> 20 rps
ConsumerB -> Route1 -> 5 rps
ConsumerB -> Route1 -> 5 rps
ConsumerB -> Route2 -> unlimited
ConsumerC -> unlimited

Currently rate limit plugin doesn't support per consumer per route, this can be a feature request.

I've found the Workflow plugin, which seems to allow me to do what I want, though it only supports limit-count. I think it would be really cool if it supported all the plugins, allowing for complex logic.

@DGolubets would you mind sharing how you did that? Maybe you can share the route configuration as well.

@shreemaan-abhishek I have my route as following:

apiVersion: apisix.apache.org/v2
kind: ApisixRoute
metadata:
  name: public-api-route
spec:
  http:
    - name: rule1
      match:
        hosts:
          - test.myhost.com
        paths:
          - /graphql
      backends:
        - serviceName: public-api
          servicePort: 80
      plugins:
        - name: key-auth
          enable: true
        - name: workflow
          enable: true
          config:
            rules:
              - actions:
                  - - limit-count
                    - count: 60
                      rejected_code: 429
                      time_window: 60
                case:
                  - - consumer_name
                    - '=='
                    - test
