Installation

Install from composer

Then copy files to project

php windwalker pkg:install lyrasoft/throttle -t migrations

Lock

Please see Symfony Lock documentation to learn basic usage.

Get Lock Factory and create lock

$lockFactory = $container->get(\Symfony\Component\Lock\LockFactory::class);
$lockFactory = $container->get(\Symfony\Component\Lock\LockFactory::class, tag: '...');

$lock = $lockFactory->createLock('user.' . $user->id . '.process', 30); // 30 seconds Timeout

$lock->acquire(true); // Wait until acquired

Manually Create

If you want to manually create Lock, you can use ThrottleService.

$throttleService = $app->retrieve(\Lyrasoft\Throttle\Factory\ThrottleService::class);

$throttleService->createLockFactory();

// Create Lock and acquire
$lock = $throttleService->createLock('user.' . $user->id . '.process', 30); // 30 seconds Timeout
$acquired = $lock->acquire(true); // Wait until acquired

if ($acquired) {
    // Acquired lock, do your process here...

    $lock->release(); // Release lock after process
} else {
    // Failed to acquire lock
}

// Instant lock acquire, if acquire success, return Lock object, or null
$lock = $throttleService->lock('user.' . $user->id . '.process', 30);

if ($lock) {
    // Acquired lock, do your process here...

    $lock->release(); // Release lock after process
} else {
    // All locks are acquired, wait or skip process
}

Concurrent Locking

If you want to limit concurrent processes, you can use concurrent() method.

Service will auto append 1 to 5 to your ID to get available locks.

$throttleService = $app->retrieve(\Lyrasoft\Throttle\Factory\ThrottleService::class);

$lock = $throttleService->concurrent('user.concurrent.' . $user->id, 5);

if ($lock) {
    // Acquired lock, do your process here...

    $lock->release(); // Release lock after process
} else {
    // All locks are acquired, wait or skip process
}

RateLimiter

Please see Symfony RateLimiter documentation to learn basic usage.

Get RateLimiter Factpory and create limiter

use Symfony\Component\RateLimiter\RateLimiterFactoryInterface;

$factory = $container->get(RateLimiterFactoryInterface::class);
$factory = $container->get(RateLimiterFactoryInterface::class, tag: '...');

// Symfony RateLimiter Object
$limiter = $factory->create('call.limit.' . $user->id);

$limit = $limiter->consume(1); // Consume 1 token

$limit->isAccepted(); // BOOL: Check if allowed
$limit->getRemainingTokens(); // Get remaining tokens
$limit->getRetryAfter(); // Get retry after DateTime
$limit->ensureAccepted(); // Throw exception if not accepted

You can configure limiters in etc/throttle.config.php file, for example, this config set 10 requests per minute limit for default limiter.

    'factories' => [
        // ...
        RateLimiterFactoryInterface::class => [
            'default' => fn () => RateLimiterServiceFactory::factory(
                id: 'default',
                policy: RateLimitPolicy::FIXED_WINDOW,
                limit: 10,
                interval: '1 minute',
                storage: 'default',
                locker: true,
            ),
            
            // Create new limiter ID if you need....
        ],
    // ...

Support Policy:

• RateLimitPolicy::FIXED_WINDOW
• RateLimitPolicy::SLIDING_WINDOW
• RateLimitPolicy::TOKEN_BUCKET
• RateLimitPolicy::NO_LIMIT

See https://symfony.com/doc/current/rate_limiter.html#fixed-window-rate-limiter

Compound Limiters

If you want ot use compound limiters, you can define multiple limiters in the config.

    'factories' => [
        // ...
        RateLimiterFactoryInterface::class => [
            'compound' => fn () => RateLimiterServiceFactory::compoundFactrory(
                [
                    'limiter1',
                    'limiter2',
                    'limiter3',
                ],
            ),
            'limiter1' => ...,
            'limiter2' => ...,
            'limiter3' => ...,
        ],
    // ...

Manually Create

If you want to manually create RateLimiter, you can use ThrottleService.

$throttleService = $app->retrieve(\Lyrasoft\Throttle\Factory\ThrottleService::class);

$factory = $throttleService->createRateLimiterFactory(
    'user.' . $user->id,
    \Lyrasoft\Throttle\Enum\RateLimitPolicy::FIXED_WINDOW,
    5,
    '10 minutes',
    true,
);
$limiter = $factory->create('search.action');

$limiter->consume(1); // Consume 1 token

Or instant create limiter

$throttleService = $app->retrieve(\Lyrasoft\Throttle\Factory\ThrottleService::class);

$limiter = $throttleService->createRateLimiter(
    'user.' . $user->id . '::search.action', // Use :: to separate factory ID and limiter ID
    \Lyrasoft\Throttle\Enum\RateLimitPolicy::FIXED_WINDOW,
    5,
    '10 minutes',
    true,
);

$limiter = $throttleService->createRateLimiter(
    'search.action', // Onlt factory ID, use default limiter ID
    \Lyrasoft\Throttle\Enum\RateLimitPolicy::FIXED_WINDOW,
    5,
    '10 minutes',
    true,
);

RateLimitMiddleware

Add RateLimitMiddleware to route that can be throttled, by default, this middleware use IP as limiter key.

use Lyrasoft\Throttle\Middleware\RateLimitMiddleware;

$router->middleware(
    RateLimitMiddleware::class,
    factory: 'default', // Limiter Factory ID
)
     // ...

If reach limit, middleware will throw 429 Too Many Requests Exception.

Custom Factory

$router->middleware(
    RateLimitMiddleware::class,
    factory: fn (Container $container) => new RateLimiterFactory(...),
)

Custom Limiter

Use static Key:

$router->middleware(
    RateLimitMiddleware::class,
    factory: 'default',
    limiterKey: 'custom.limiter.key', // Limiter ID in the factory
)

Use Callback:

$router->middleware(
    RateLimitMiddleware::class,
    factory: 'default',
    limiterKey: function (\Lyrasoft\Luna\User\UserService $userService, \Windwalker\Core\Http\AppRequest $appRequest) {
        $user = $userService->getUser();
        
        if ($user->isLogin()) {
            return 'user.limiter:' . $user->id;
        }
        
        return 'guest.limiter:' . $appRequest->getClientIP();
    }
)

Custom Consume Count

Static number:

$router->middleware(
    RateLimitMiddleware::class,
    factory: 'default',
    consume: 5, // Consume 5 tokens per request
)

Use callback:

$router->middleware(
    RateLimitMiddleware::class,
    factory: 'default',
    consume: function (LimiterInterface, $rateLimiter, string $key, /* Inject */) {
        if ($key ==== 'vip') {
            return $rateLimiter->consume(1);
        }
    
        return $rateLimiter->consume(10);
    },
)

Custom Exceeded Handler and Response

By default, middleware will throw 429 Exception when limit exceeded.

If you want to override this, you can use exceededHandler argument.

$router->middleware(
    RateLimitMiddleware::class,
    factory: 'default',
    exceededHandler: function (/* Inject */) {
        // You can throw Exception
        throw new \RuntimeException('Too many requests, please try again later.', 429);
        
        // Or return custom Response
        return new \Windwalker\Http\Response\JsonResponse([
            'message' => 'Too many requests, please try again later.',
        ], 429);
    },
)

If exceededHandler returns a Response object, you can configure the headers by infoHeaders argument.

Set infoHeaders to TRUE, RateLimitMiddleware will auto inject headers:

X-RateLimit-Limit: ...
X-RateLimit-Remaining: ...
X-RateLimit-Reset: ...

Set infoHeaders to callback, you can customize response:

$router->middleware(
    RateLimitMiddleware::class,
    factory: 'default',
    exceededHandler: function (/* Inject */) {
        return new \Windwalker\Http\Response\JsonResponse([
            'message' => 'Too many requests, please try again later.',
        ], 429);
    },
    infoHeaders: function (ResponseInterface $response, \Symfony\Component\RateLimiter\RateLimit $limit, /* Inject */) {
        $response = $response->withAddedHeader('X-Custom-RateLimit-Limit', $limiter->getLimit());
        $response = $response->withAddedHeader('X-Custom-RateLimit-Remaining', $limiter->getRemainingTokens());
        $response = $response->withAddedHeader('X-Custom-RateLimit-Reset', $limiter->getRetryAfter()->getTimestamp());
        
        return $response;
    },
)
