## Issue #10: Implement Rate Limiting
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
### Description
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Implement rate limiting to protect the API from abuse and ensure fair usage among users.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
### Acceptance Criteria
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- [ ] Configure rate limiting middleware
|
||
|
|
- [ ] Define rate limits for different endpoints
|
||
|
|
- [ ] Add logging for rate limit violations
|
||
|
|
- [ ] Allow configuration of limits via environment variables
|
||
|
|
- [ ] Ensure legitimate users are not affected by limits
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
### Tasks
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- [ ] Install and configure express-rate-limit middleware
|
||
|
|
- [ ] Define default rate limits
|
||
|
|
- [ ] Implement configurable limits via .env file
|
||
|
|
- [ ] Add logging for rate limit hits
|
||
|
|
- [ ] Test rate limiting functionality
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
### Notes
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This issue addresses the need to protect the API from abuse through rate limiting. The implementation will use express-rate-limit middleware to configure different rate limits for various endpoints, with configuration via environment variables to allow easy adjustment without code changes.
