hacktoberfest - implement basic leaky bucket rate limit strategy #18

Open x-sushant-x opened 1 day ago

x-sushant-x commented 1 day ago

Basic concept of Rate Shield is to implement different rate limiting strategies and integrate them with Redis. Than user can choose which strategy to apply and what rule to apply on particular API endpoint.

Currently we support: -

  1. Token Bucket
  2. Fixed Window Counter

You can provide code for very basic leaky bucket rate limiting strategy in golang. There is no need to integrate redis in it as of now.

Procedure: -

  1. Fork this repo.
  2. Clone into your machine.
  3. Add a new file leaky_bucket.go in rate_shield/limiter directory.
  4. Implement leaky bucket rate limiting logic into that file.
