v1.1.1

Add benchmarks

v1.1.0

Adds new functions and test cases for these.

1. func (a *AttributeBasedLimiter) MustShouldAllow(key string, n uint64, limit uint64, size time.Duration) bool
2. func (a *AttributeBasedLimiter) HasOrCreateKey(key string, limit uint64, size time.Duration) bool

Thanks @fufuok for these contributions.

v1.0.0

Releasing the first initial stable version of rate-limiter.
New additions:

1. SyncLimiter : A new limiter implementation that require no goroutine in the background to maintain the sliding window.
2. More tests that cover SyncLimiter.
3. AttrubuteBasedLimiter can be configured to use DefaultLimiter and SyncLimiter by passing backgroundSlider flag.
4. Added docs

v0.3.0

New things:

1. Added test coverage
2. Fixed an issue that could probably cause deadlock when Kill() is called.
3. AttributeBasedRateLimiter not accepts string as paramter across various functions instead of *string.

v0.2.0

Additions:

1. Now we can call defer limiter.Kill() to clean up or deactivate the limiter when it is not in use anymore. This will also kill the underlying goroutine and avoids resource leak.
2. limiter.ShouldAllow(N uint64) now returns bool, error. error is not nil if ShouldAllow is called on a limiter that is killed or inactive.

v0.1.2

Initial version of ratelimiter.
