Taxon matching stops silently with (429) Too Many Requests #73

Open pieterprovoost opened 1 year ago

Taxon matching stops silently with (429) Too Many Requests resulting in unmatched names. Errors are currently silenced because of https://github.com/ropensci/worrms/issues/38

@bart-v Is there any documentation on rate limits for AphiaRecordsByMatchNames?

It's not formally documented, but there is something like Nettiquette. If you send more than 180 requests during 10sec you will be blocked for a short time
