This Throttle instance will rate limit the throttle to a maximum of 10 requests every 30 seconds. It will not throw an error if the maximum is exceeded.
'use strict';
const { Throttle } = require('generic-throttle');
const throttle = new Throttle(10, 30000, false);
function delay(){
return new Promise((resolve) => {
setTimeout(() => {
resolve();
}, 2000);
});
}
function asyncRequest(i){
return throttle.acquire(() => {
console.log('%d does some async request', i);
return delay();
}).then(function(){
console.log('%d finished', i);
});
}
for(let i = 0; i < 30; ++i){
asyncRequest(i);
}This Throttle instance will limit concurrency to 5 requests at any given moment. It will not throw an error if the maximum is exceeded.
'use strict';
const { Throttle } = require('generic-throttle');
const throttle = new Throttle(5);
function delay(){
return new Promise((resolve) => {
setTimeout(() => {
resolve();
}, 2000);
});
}
function asyncRequest(i){
return throttle.acquire(() => {
console.log('%d does some async request', i);
return delay();
}).then(function(){
console.log('%d finished', i);
});
}
for(let i = 0; i < 30; ++i){
asyncRequest(i);
