Today I want to share my experience improve my backend node app with an express framework with a limited rate query user request.
demo API query
Hurry up!! let start
step 1: install module express-rate-limit
yarn add express-rate-limit
step 2: now, we need to import the library into our application
const rateLimit = require("express-rate-limit")
step 3: define variable inlude timer and number limit request
const limiter = rateLimit({
windowMs: 1 * 60 * 1000, // 15 minutes
max: 10 // limit each IP to 100 requests per windowMs
})
step 4: use limiter as middleware of expressjs
Congratulation !! you finished improving your security rest API
