Crate throttle_kit 

Rate limiting for Rust.

Implements the GCRA (Generic Cell Rate Algorithm) with pluggable backends (in-memory via DashMap, optional Redis) and optional Tower layer integration.

Quick Start

use ratelimit::{RateLimiter, Quota, InMemoryBackend};

#[tokio::main]
async fn main() {
    let backend = InMemoryBackend::new();
    let limiter = RateLimiter::new(
        Quota::per_second(10),
        backend,
    );

    let result = limiter.check("user-123").await;
    assert!(result.allowed);
}

Quota

RateLimitResult

Result of a rate limit check.

RateLimiter

Core rate limiter that delegates to a RateLimitBackend.

Enums
