Example usage:
use App\Helpers\ThrottleHelper; // Define your function $myFunction = function() { // Your function logic goes here }; // Throttle the function $result = ThrottleHelper::throttle($myFunction, 15, 'myFunction', $userId); // Check the result if (is_callable($result)) { // Function was executed successfully } else { // Function was throttled, handle accordingly echo $result; // Example: "Please try again in 10 seconds." }
