Rate limit middleware

1

I am using slim v3 and I am trying to find out if Slim has a rate limit class / method.
I havn’t been able to find it.

So I was wondering how do some of you handle rate limits.

Thanks

On https://github.com/slimphp/Slim/wiki/Middleware-for-Slim-Framework-v3.x I can see this one: https://github.com/pabloroca/slim3-apiratelimit-middleware

This one: https://github.com/Prezto/Rate-limit also has a compatible middleware signature.

Thank you alot for your assistance, It helped me alot.

I Used Redis to store the request, so I am making progress.

You are welcome :slight_smile:

Are you using the Redis solution as a “waiting list” so requests can wait until rate limit is fred?

Hey @pedropereira

Sorry for the late response :slight_smile:

Yea basicly, I want to make sure that the users can’t float our database with requests. So I basicly just have a redis cach that keep track of the amount in a middleware.
