How do you save server resource in Laravel 11?
Go to routes/web.php
and add middleware to your route or route group just remember the key which will be using throughout the application in this case I am using weather as key to limit the request by User or IP. just remember whatever key you use should be same as the key in app/Providers/AppServiceProvider.php
so my route/web.php should look like this when I use the middleware with the single route
Route::get('/your-url', function () {
return response()
->json([
'data' => 'data will be here'
]);
})->middleware(['throttle:weather']);
or if you want to use route group
Route::middleware(['throttle:weather'])->group(function () {
// User CRUD controller
Route::resource('/users', UserController::class);
// Change Password View
Route::get('/profile/change-password', [UserController::class, 'changePassword'])->name('change.password');
// Change Password Store
Route::post('/profile/change-password', [UserController::class, 'changePasswordStore'])->name('change.password.store');
});
Than inside your app/Providers/AppServiceProvider.php within boot method you can limit the user or ip make sure to import the following namespaces
<?php
namespace App\Providers;
use Illuminate\Cache\RateLimiting\Limit;
use Illuminate\Http\Request;
use Illuminate\Support\Facades\RateLimiter;
use Illuminate\Support\ServiceProvider;
class AppServiceProvider extends ServiceProvider
{
/**
* Register any application services.
*/
public function register(): void
{
//
}
/**
* Bootstrap any application services.
*/
public function boot(): void
{
RateLimiter::for('weather', function (Request $request) {
return Limit::perMinute(10)
->by($request->user()?->id ?: $request->ip()); // 10 request per minute per user or ip
});
}
}
of if you want to limit normal user vs logged in user use the following.
<?php
namespace App\Providers;
use Illuminate\Cache\RateLimiting\Limit;
use Illuminate\Http\Request;
use Illuminate\Support\Facades\RateLimiter;
use Illuminate\Support\ServiceProvider;
class AppServiceProvider extends ServiceProvider
{
/**
* Register any application services.
*/
public function register(): void
{
//
}
/**
* Bootstrap any application services.
*/
public function boot(): void
{
RateLimiter::for('weather', function (Request $request) {
// Rate Limit by Logged in User vs Normal User
return $request->user() ?
Limit::perMinute(2)->by($request->ip()) :
Limit::perMinute(1)->by($request->ip());
});
}
}
By following this you can now save your server resource and keep user informed they are only allowed certain request per minute this could for per seconds and hours following are some useful methods.
// perSecond takes 1 argument
Limit::perSecond($maxAttempts: 1)->by($key: $request->ip())
// perMinute takes 1 argument
Limit::perMinute($maxAttempts: 1)->by($key: $request->ip())
// perMinutes takes 2 argument
Limit::perMinutes($decayMinutes: 1, $maxAttempts: 10)->by($key: $request->ip())
// perHour takes 2 argument
Limit::perHour($maxAttempts: 100, $decayHours: 1)->by($key: $request->ip())
when you want to use limit you can save server resource when you have hosted your application where your server provider charges for the resource.
