PHP Rate Limiting Library With Token Bucket Algorithm with minimal external dependencies.
composer require palepurple/rate-limit
The RateLimiter needs to know where to get/set data.
Depending on which adapter you install, you may need to install additional libraries (predis/predis or tedivm/stash) or PHP extensions (e.g. Redis, Memcache, APC)
- APCu
- Redis or Predis
- Stash (This supports many drivers - see http://www.stashphp.com/Drivers.html )
- Memcached
