Summary
Introduction
limit request rate using the "leaky bucket" method.
Attributes
Name | Type | Requirement | Default | Valid | Description |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
rate | integer | required | [0,...] | the specified request rate (number per second) threshold. Requests exceeding this rate (and below burst ) will get delayed to conform to the rate. |
|
burst | integer | required | [0,...] | the number of excessive requests per second allowed to be delayed. Requests exceeding this hard limit will get rejected immediately. | |
key | string | required | ["remote_addr", "server_addr", "http_x_real_ip", "http_x_forwarded_for", "consumer_name"] | the user specified key to limit the rate, now accept those as key: "remote_addr"(client's IP), "server_addr"(server's IP), "X-Forwarded-For/X-Real-IP" in request header, "consumer_name"(consumer's username). | |
rejected_code | integer | optional | 503 | [200,...] | The HTTP status code returned when the request exceeds the threshold is rejected. |
Key can be customized by the user, only need to modify a line of code of the plug-in to complete. It is a security consideration that is not open in the plugin.
Example
How to enable on the route
or serivce
Take route
as an example (the use of service
is the same method), enable the limit-req
plugin on the specified route.
curl http://127.0.0.1:9080/apisix/admin/routes/1 -H 'X-API-KEY: edd1c9f034335f136f87ad84b625c8f1' -X PUT -d '
{
"methods": ["GET"],
"uri": "/index.html",
"plugins": {
"limit-req": {
"rate": 1,
"burst": 2,
"rejected_code": 503,
"key": "remote_addr"
}
},
"upstream": {
"type": "roundrobin",
"nodes": {
"39.97.63.215:80": 1
}
}
}'
You can open dashboard with a browser: http://127.0.0.1:9080/apisix/dashboard/
, to complete the above operation through the web interface, first add a route:
Then add limit-req plugin:
Test Plugin
The above configuration limits the request rate to 1 per second. If it is greater than 1 and less than 3, the delay will be added. If the rate exceeds 3, it will be rejected:
curl -i http://127.0.0.1:9080/index.html
When you exceed, you will receive a response header with a 503 return code:
HTTP/1.1 503 Service Temporarily Unavailable
Content-Type: text/html
Content-Length: 194
Connection: keep-alive
Server: APISIX web server
<html>
<head><title>503 Service Temporarily Unavailable</title></head>
<body>
<center><h1>503 Service Temporarily Unavailable</h1></center>
<hr><center>openresty</center>
</body>
</html>
This means that the limit req plugin is in effect.
How to enable on the consumer
To enable the limit-req
plugin on the consumer, it needs to be used together with the authorization plugin. Here, the key-auth authorization plugin is taken as an example.
- Bind the
limit-req
plugin to the consumer
curl http://127.0.0.1:9080/apisix/admin/consumers -H 'X-API-KEY: edd1c9f034335f136f87ad84b625c8f1' -X PUT -d '
{
"username": "consumer_jack",
"plugins": {
"key-auth": {
"key": "auth-jack"
},
"limit-req": {
"rate": 1,
"burst": 1,
"rejected_code": 403,
"key": "consumer_name"
}
}
}'
- Create a
route
and enable thekey-auth
plugin
curl http://127.0.0.1:9080/apisix/admin/routes/1 -H 'X-API-KEY: edd1c9f034335f136f87ad84b625c8f1' -X PUT -d '
{
"methods": ["GET"],
"uri": "/index.html",
"plugins": {
"key-auth": {
"key": "auth-jack"
}
},
"upstream": {
"type": "roundrobin",
"nodes": {
"127.0.0.1:1980": 1
}
}
}'
Test Plugin
The value of rate + burst
is not exceeded.
curl -i http://127.0.0.1:9080/index.html -H 'apikey: auth-jack'
HTTP/1.1 200 OK
......
When the value of rate + burst
is exceeded.
curl -i http://127.0.0.1:9080/index.html -H 'apikey: auth-jack'
HTTP/1.1 403 Forbidden
.....
<html>
<head><title>403 Forbidden</title></head>
<body>
<center><h1>403 Forbidden</h1></center>
<hr><center>openresty</center>
</body>
</html>
Explains that the limit-req
plugin tied to consumer
has taken effect.
Disable Plugin
When you want to disable the limit req plugin, it is very simple, you can delete the corresponding json configuration in the plugin configuration, no need to restart the service, it will take effect immediately:
curl http://127.0.0.1:9080/apisix/admin/routes/1 -H 'X-API-KEY: edd1c9f034335f136f87ad84b625c8f1' -X PUT -d '
{
"methods": ["GET"],
"uri": "/index.html",
"id": 1,
"plugins": {
},
"upstream": {
"type": "roundrobin",
"nodes": {
"39.97.63.215:80": 1
}
}
}'
Remove the limit-req
plugin on consumer
.
curl http://127.0.0.1:9080/apisix/admin/consumers -H 'X-API-KEY: edd1c9f034335f136f87ad84b625c8f1' -X PUT -d '
{
"username": "consumer_jack",
"plugins": {
"key-auth": {
"key": "auth-jack"
}
}
}'
The limit req plugin has been disabled now. It works for other plugins.
