kumo.set_httpinject_recipient_rate_limit(SPEC)

{{since('2024.11.08-d383b033')}}

Configures an optional throttle for the HTTP injection API. The SPEC parameter may be nil to clear the rate limit, or be a throttle specification as described in kumo.make_throttle.

It is recommended that you configure this in the pre_init event, which triggers prior to the init event where you start up your http listeners:

kumo.on('pre_init', function()
  kumo.set_httpinject_recipient_rate_limit 'local:10,000/s'
end)

The effect of setting the rate limit is that, for an incoming HTTP injection request, the number of recipients in the request is assessed against the throttle, and the request is put to sleep until the throttle will admit that number of recipients.

It applies across any and all HTTP listeners that have been defined.

This can therefore be used to set the upper bound on the HTTP injection rate.

This limit does not apply to kumo.api.inject.inject_v1.
