limiter

This is an example of BeforeMiddleware for the Iron framework. It limits the request body size by checking first the Content-Length header, then the size of the payload. The response is either an HTTP 413 or it continues down the chain.

Include this in your Cargo.toml file:

[dependencies]
limiter = "0.1"

Example

extern crate iron;
extern crate limiter;

use iron::prelude::*;

use limiter::RequestLimit;

fn index(_: &mut Request) -> IronResult<Response> {
    Ok(Response::with((iron::status::Ok, "Test")))
}

fn main() {
    let max_request = RequestLimit::new(5000, 50);
    let mut chain = Chain::new(index);
    chain.link_before(max_request);
    Iron::new(chain).http("localhost:3000").unwrap();
}
