Module to enable rate limit per service in Netflix Zuul.
There are five built-in rate limit approaches:
-
Authenticated User
-
Uses the authenticated username or 'anonymous'
-
-
Request Origin
-
Uses the user origin request
-
-
URL
-
Uses the request path of the downstream service
-
-
URL Pattern
-
Uses the request Ant path pattern to the downstream service
-
-
ROLE
-
Uses the authenticated user roles
-
-
Request method
-
Uses the HTTP request method
-
-
Request header
-
Uses the HTTP request header
-
-
Global configuration per service:
-
This one does not validate the request Origin, Authenticated User or URI
-
To use this approach just don’t set param 'type'
-
|
Note
|
It is possible to combine Authenticated User, Request Origin, URL, ROLE and Request Method just adding multiple values to the list |

Add the dependency on pom.xml
<dependency>

-
A regular long representation (using seconds as the default unit)
-
The standard ISO-8601 format used by java.time.Duration (e.g. PT30M means 30 minutes)
-
A more readable format where the value and the unit are coupled (e.g. 10s means 10 seconds)

This section details how to add custom implementations
If the application needs to control the key strategy beyond the options offered by the type property then it can
be done just by creating a custom RateLimitKeyGenerator bean[1]
implementation adding further qualifiers or something entirely different:
@Bean
public RateLimitKeyGenerator ratelimitKeyGenerator(RateLimitProperties properties, RateLimitUtils rateLimitUtils) {
return new DefaultRateLimitKeyGenerator(properties, rateLimitUtils) {
@Override
public String key(HttpServletRequest request, Route route, RateLimitProperties.Policy policy) {
return super.key(request, route, policy) + ":" + request.getMethod();
}
};
}This framework uses 3rd party applications to control the rate limit access and these libraries are out of control of this framework.
If one of the 3rd party applications fails, the framework will handle this failure in the
DefaultRateLimiterErrorHandler class
which will log the error upon failure.
If there is a need to handle the errors differently, it can be achieved by defining a custom
RateLimiterErrorHandler
bean[2], e.g:
@Bean
public RateLimiterErrorHandler rateLimitErrorHandler() {
return new DefaultRateLimiterErrorHandler() {
@Override
public void handleSaveError(String key, Exception e) {
// custom code
}
@Override
public void handleFetchError(String key, Exception e) {
// custom code
}
@Override
public void handleError(String msg, Exception e) {
// custom code
}
}
}If the application needs to be notified when a rate limit access was exceeded then it can be done by listening
to RateLimitExceededEvent event:
@EventListener
public void observe(RateLimitExceededEvent event) {
// custom code
