Middleware: Rate Limiting

This example showcases two middleware that achieve rate limiting for your API endpoints. One uses a simple leaky-bucket implementation and the other delegates to actix-governor.

Usage

cd middleware/rate-limit
cargo run

Look in src/rate_limit.rs to see the leaky-bucket implementation.

Routes

• GET /test/simple - uses the hand-written leaky-bucket rate limiting.
• GET /test/governor - uses actix-governor.

Calling either of these endpoints too frequently will result in a 429 Too Many Requests response.
