FAQ

After the download, you have to make one include require_once('vendor/autoload.php');. After that you have to import the classes with use statements.

Example:
If you use only one package a project is not needed. But if you use more then one package, without a project it is not possible to import the classes with use statements.

In general, it is recommended to use always a project to download your libraries. In an application normally there is more than one library needed.
Some PHP packages are not free to download and because of that hosted in private repositories. In this case some credentials are needed to access such packages. Please use the auth.json textarea to insert credentials, if a package is coming from a private repository. You can look here for more information.

  • Some hosting areas are not accessible by a terminal or SSH. Then it is not possible to use Composer.
  • To use Composer is sometimes complicated. Especially for beginners.
  • Composer needs much resources. Sometimes they are not available on a simple webspace.
  • If you are using private repositories you don't need to share your credentials. You can set up everything on our site and then you provide a simple download link to your team member.
  • Simplify your Composer build process. Use our own command line tool to download the vendor folder as binary. This makes your build process faster and you don't need to expose your credentials for private repositories.
Please rate this library. Is it a good library?

Informations about the package throttle

Throttle (v0.3.3)

Ban identifier after certain amount of requests in a given timeframe.

Build Status

Installing via Composer (recommended)

Install composer in your project:

Create a composer.json file in your project root:

Install via composer

Usage

Basic usage of the Throttle class to ban an identifier.

Logger

Any logger library that implements the PSR-3 LoggerInterface should work, just create your Logger object and inject it into the Throttle constructor. For example the excellent logging library Monolog.

Storage

Included is a Memcached example however it is very easy to use some other storage system just implement the StorageInterface and inject that object into the Throttle constructor.

Caution

Whatever storage system u decide to use, don not store the failed request data into your database, this could lead to a DDOS attack and take your database down.

Options

U can override the default options by instantiating a Throttle class and pass in an array as the third argument.

reset();

This will remove the identifier from the storage.

remaining();

This will return an integer that is the remaining attempt(s) available before identifier gets banned.

Memcached

This requires u have the PHP memcached extension installed.

on Debian/Ubuntu systems for example install like this (requires administrative password).

Testing

In the tests folder u can find several tests.
