Configure ThrottlerModule

We need to set up the ThrottlerModule to be able for configuring throttling mechanisms for the entire application.

from ellar.common import Module
from ellar_throttler import AnonymousThrottler, ThrottlerModule, UserThrottler


@Module(
    modules=(
        ThrottlerModule.setup(
            throttlers=[
                AnonymousThrottler(limit=100, ttl=60*5), # 100 requests per 5mins
                UserThrottler(limit=1000, ttl=60*60*24) # 1000 requests per day
            ]
        ),
    )
)
class AppModule:
    pass

Applying Throttling to Controllers

from ellar.common import Controller, get
from ellar_throttler import Throttle, AnonymousThrottler, UserThrottler
from ellar.di import injectable


@injectable()
class AppService:
    def success(self, use_auth: bool):
        message = "success"
        if use_auth:
            message += " for Authenticated user"
        return {message: True}

    def ignored(self, use_auth: bool):
        message = "ignored"
        if use_auth:
            message += " for Authenticated user"
        return {message: True}


@Throttle(intercept=True)
@Controller("/limit")
class LimitController:
    def __init__(self, app_service: AppService):
        self.app_service = app_service

    @get()
    def get_throttled(self, use_auth: bool):
        return self.app_service.success(use_auth)

    @get("/shorter")
    @Throttle(anon={"limit": 3, "ttl": 5}, user={"limit": 3, "ttl": 3}) # overriding anon and user throttler config
    def get_shorter(self, use_auth: bool):
        return self.app_service.success(use_auth)

    @get("/shorter-inline-throttling")
    @Throttle(AnonymousThrottler(ttl=5, limit=3), UserThrottler(ttl=3, limit=3)) # overriding global throttling options
    def get_shorter_inline_version(self, use_auth: bool):
        return self.app_service.success(use_auth)
