}This library provides several Lua modules to help OpenResty/ngx_lua users to control and limit the traffic, either request rate or request concurrency (or both).
- resty.limit.req provides request rate limiting and adjustment based on the "leaky bucket" method.
- resty.limit.count provides rate limiting based on a "fixed window" implementation since OpenResty 1.13.6.1+.
- resty.limit.conn provides request concurrency level limiting and adjustment based on extra delays.
- resty.limit.traffic provides an aggregator to combine multiple instances of the resty.limit.req, resty.limit.count, or resty.limit.conn classes (or all).
Please check out these Lua modules' own documentation for more details.
This library provides more flexible alternatives to NGINX's standard modules
ngx_limit_req
and ngx_limit_conn.
For example, the Lua-based limiters provided by this library can be used in any contexts
like right before the downstream SSL handshaking procedure (as with ssl_certificate_by_lua)
or right before issuing backend requests.
This library is enabled by default in OpenResty 1.11.2.2+.
If you have to install this library manually,
then ensure you are using at least OpenResty 1.11.2.1 or a custom nginx build including ngx_lua 0.10.6+. Also, You need to configure
the lua_package_path directive to
add the path of your lua-resty-limit-traffic source tree to ngx_lua's Lua module search path, as in
# nginx.conf
http {
lua_package_path "/path/to/lua-resty-limit-traffic/lib/?.lua;;";
...
}and then load one of the modules provided by this library in Lua. For example,
local limit_req = require "resty.limit.req"The openresty-en mailing list is for English speakers.
The openresty mailing list is for Chinese speakers.
Please report bugs or submit patches by
- creating a ticket on the GitHub Issue Tracker,
- or posting to the OpenResty community.
