Class yii\filters\RateLimiter

All Classes | Properties | Methods

Inheritance	yii\filters\RateLimiter » yii\base\ActionFilter » yii\base\Behavior » yii\base\BaseObject
Implements	yii\base\Configurable
Available since version	2.0
Source Code	https://github.com/yiisoft/yii2/blob/master/framework/filters/RateLimiter.php

RateLimiter implements a rate limiting algorithm based on the leaky bucket algorithm.

You may use RateLimiter by attaching it as a behavior to a controller or module, like the following,

public function behaviors()
{
    return [
        'rateLimiter' => [
            'class' => \yii\filters\RateLimiter::className(),
        ],
    ];
}

When the user has exceeded his rate limit, RateLimiter will throw a yii\web\TooManyRequestsHttpException exception.

Note that RateLimiter requires $user to implement the yii\filters\RateLimitInterface. RateLimiter will do nothing if $user is not set or does not implement yii\filters\RateLimitInterface.

Property Details

$enableRateLimitHeaders public property

Whether to include rate limit headers in the response

public boolean $enableRateLimitHeaders = true

$errorMessage public property

The message to be displayed when rate limit exceeds

public string $errorMessage = 'Rate limit exceeded.'

$request public property

The current request. If not set, the request application component will be used.

public yii\web\Request $request = null

$response public property

The response to be sent. If not set, the response application component will be used.

public yii\web\Response $response = null

$user public property

The user object that implements the RateLimitInterface. If not set, it will take the value of Yii::$app->user->getIdentity(false). {@since 2.0.38} It's possible to provide a closure function in order to assign the user identity on runtime. Using a closure to assign the user identity is recommend when you are not using the standard Yii::$app->user component. See the example below: `php 'user' => function() {

return Yii::$app->apiUser->identity;

} `

public yii\filters\RateLimitInterface|Closure $user = null

$response	yii\web\Response
$limit	integer	The maximum number of allowed requests during a period
$remaining	integer	The remaining number of allowed requests within the current period
$reset	integer	The number of seconds to wait before having maximum number of allowed requests again

beforeAction() public method
