C# client-side rate limiting utility.
http://david-desmaisons.github.io/RateLimiter/
## Motivation
The initial motivation was to create helper to respect Web Services rate limit in client application.
However this helper can also be also in other scenarios where you need to temporally limit the usage of one shared resource.
## Features
* Easy to use
* Fully asynchronous: lower resource usage than thread sleep
* Cancellable via CancellationToken
* Thread safe so you can share time constraints object to rate limit different threads using the same resource
* Composable: ability to compose different rate limits in one constraint
## Installation
```bash
Install-Package RateLimiter -Version 2.2.0
```
## Sample usage
### Basic
RateLimiters are awaitable: the code executed after the await will respect the time constraint:
```C#
using ComposableAsync;
// Create Time constraint: max five times by second
var timeConstraint = TimeLimiter.GetFromMaxCountByInterval(5, TimeSpan.FromSeconds(1));
// Use it
for(int i=0; i<1000; i++)
{
await timeConstraint;
Trace.WriteLine(string.Format("{0:MM/dd/yyy HH:mm:ss.fff}", DateTime.Now));
}
```
Output

...
```
### As http DelegatingHandler
```C#
using System.Net.Http;
//...
var handler = TimeLimiter
.GetFromMaxCountByInterval(60, TimeSpan.FromMinutes(1))
.AsDelegatingHandler();
var Client = new HttpClient(handler)
```
### With cancellation token:
```C#
// Create Time constraint: max three times by second
var timeConstraint = TimeLimiter.GetFromMaxCountByInterval(3, TimeSpan.FromSeconds(1));
var cancellationSource = new CancellationTokenSource(1100);
// Use it
while(true)
{
await timeConstraint.Enqueue(ConsoleIt, cancellationSource.Token);
}
//....
private static void ConsoleIt()
{
Trace.WriteLine(string.Format("{0:MM/dd/yyy HH:mm:ss.fff}", DateTime.Now));
}
```
Output

```
### Composed
```C#
// Create first constraint: max five times by second
var constraint = new CountByIntervalAwaitableConstraint(5, TimeSpan.FromSeconds(1));
/ /Create second constraint: one time each 100 ms
var constraint2 = new CountByIntervalAwaitableConstraint(1, TimeSpan.FromMilliseconds(100));
// Compose the two constraints
var timeConstraint = TimeLimiter.Compose(constraint, constraint2);
// Use it
for(int i=0; i<1000; i++)
{
await timeConstraint;
Trace.WriteLine(string.Format("{0:MM/dd/yyy HH:mm:ss.fff}", DateTime.Now));
}
```
