BurstyLimiter

This is a library to help with Burst Ratelimits. I needed to ratelimit my requests for an API game called SpaceTradersAPI, so i wrote this. Originally there was a limit of 2 requests per second + 10 requests per ten seconds.

Small disclaimer: I am now a part of the Team behind SpaceTradersAPI.

Usage

For the usage look at the code below. rate_limited_function has a ratelimit of 2/second plus 10 per 10 seconds, just like what i needed for the game.

pip install burstylimiter

from burstylimiter import Limiter, BurstyLimiter

@BurstyLimiter(Limiter(2, 1), Limiter(10, 10))
def rate_limited_function():
    print("I am Ratelimited")

Tests

Each tests needed its own file because pytest messes with the timing if they are not.
