artax

exponentially stall a functional call based on frequency of a keyed request to call

artax is a package that allows you to exponentially stall responses based on the frequency of a keyed request. for example, if a specific IP requests an endpoint too frequently, you can use artax to stall the handler sending a response back, until the rate of request is reduced.

installation
