A Quart extension to provide rate limiting support
Project description
Quart-Rate-Limiter is an extension for Quart to allow for rate limits to be defined and enforced on a per route basis. The 429 error response includes a RFC7231 compliant Retry-After header and the successful responses contain headers compliant with the RateLimit Header Fields for HTTP RFC draft.
Quickstart
To add a rate limit first initialise the RateLimiting extension with the application, and then rate limit the route,
app = Quart(__name__)
rate_limiter = RateLimiter(app)
@app.get('/')
@rate_limit(1, timedelta(seconds=10))
async def handler():
...Simple examples
To limit a route to 1 request per second and a maximum of 20 per minute,
@app.route('/')
@rate_limit(1, timedelta(seconds=1))
@rate_limit(20, timedelta(minutes=1))
async def handler():
...Alternatively the limits argument can be used for multiple limits,
@app.route('/')
@rate_limit(
limits=[
RateLimit(1, timedelta(seconds=1)),
RateLimit(20, timedelta(minutes=1)),
],
)
async def handler():
...To identify remote users based on their authentication ID, rather than their IP,
async def key_function():
return current_user.id
RateLimiter(app, key_function=key_function)The key_function is a coroutine function to allow session lookups if appropriate.
