An Efficient Low Overhead Rate Limiter for Your Routes
This is a low overhead rate limiter designed specifically for your routes.
This plugin will add an onRequest hook for rate limiting
This plugin introduces an onRequest hook that checks whether a client, identified by their IP address, has exceeded the maximum number of requests within a specified timeWindow.
Usage: To use this plugin, register it and, if needed, provide custom options.
Example:
```javascript
import Fastify from 'fastify'
const fastify = Fastify()
await fastify.register(import('@fastify/rate-limit'), { max: 100, timeWindow: '1 minute' })
fastify.get('/', (request, reply) => { reply.send({ hello: 'world' }) })
fastify.listen({ port: 3000 }, err => { if (err) throw err
console.log('Server listening at http://localhost:3000') })
```
