Too many requests #11

Closed wboykinm closed 6 years ago

wboykinm commented 6 years ago

Following up on the ambiguous-yet-earnest #9, I looked at the responses to the looped directions API call. I logged the error associated with the call and found this:

"message":"Too Many Requests"

@peterqliu did the platform team feel this module was hammering the API too hard and lock usage down? Any single call still works fine.

per chat, we figured out this was due to rate-limiting

For future reference, I was able to get around this error to a limited extent by

  1. Playing with the resolution param
  2. Adding a modest (500-2000ms) setTimeout() to the request loop

This would be better-tuneable as a node script, but that's a whole other can of worms. Thanks for the help @peterqliu!

👍 thanks for writing out those tips. I just merged a PR that addresses/alleviates some of these relevant troubles https://github.com/mapbox/mapbox-isochrone/pull/14
