2. Node.js

쉬움 추천

사전 준비물

Git GitHub에서 프로젝트 코드를 내려받으려면 필요합니다.
Node.js npm 명령어를 쓰려면 Node.js가 설치되어 있어야 합니다. LTS(장기지원) 버전을 추천합니다.

$ npm install --save firebase-functions-rate-limiter

package.json에 명시된 라이브러리들을 내려받아 설치합니다.

✅ 명령어 실행 후 터미널에 나타나는 주소(보통 http://localhost:3000 형태)를 브라우저에서 열어보세요.

이 레포의 README에 적힌 실제 명령어를 그대로 가져왔습니다.

Q: How to limit rate of firebase function calls?
A: Use `firebase-functions-rate-limiter`

Mission: **limit number of calls per specified period of time**

## Key features:

- Two backends: Realtime Database (efficient) or Firestore (convenient)
- Easy: call single function, no configuration
- Efficient: only a single call read call to database (or firestore), two calls if limit not exceeded and usage is recorded
- Concurrent-safe: uses atomic transactions in both backends
- Clean: Uses only one key (or collection in firestore backend), creates single document for each qualifier. Does not leave rubbish in your database.
- Typescript typings included
- No firebase configuration required. You do not have to create any indexes or rules.
- .mock() factory to make functions testing easier
- Works with NodeJS 12, 14, 16, 18

## Installation

```bash
$ npm install --save firebase-functions-rate-limiter
```

Then:

```typescript
import FirebaseFunctionsRateLimiter from "firebase-functions-rate-limiter";
// or
const { FirebaseFunctionsRateLimiter } = require("firebase-functions-rate-limiter");
```

## Usage

**Example 1**: limit calls for everyone:

```javascript
import * as admin from "firebase-admin";
import * as functions from "firebase-functions";
import { FirebaseFunctionsRateLimiter } from "firebase-functions-rate-limiter";

admin.initializeApp(functions.config().firebase);
const database = admin.database();

const limiter = FirebaseFunctionsRateLimiter.withRealtimeDbBackend(
    {
        name: "rate_limiter_collection",
        maxCalls: 2,
        periodSeconds: 15,
    },
    database,
);
exports.testRateLimiter = 
  functions.https.onRequest(async (req, res) => {
    await limiter.rejectOnQuotaExceededOrRecordUsage(); // will throw HttpsException with proper warning

res.send("Function called");
});

```

>  You can use two functions: `limiter.rejectOnQuotaExceededOrRecordUsage(qualifier?)` will throw an *functions.https.HttpsException* when limit is exceeded while `limiter.isQuotaExceededOrRecordUsage(qualifier?)` gives you the ability to choose how to handle the situation.

**Example 2**: limit calls for each user separately (function called directly - please refer [firebase docs on this topic](https://firebase.google.com/docs/functions/callable)):

```javascript
import * as admin from "firebase-admin";
import * as functions from "firebase-functions";
import { FirebaseFunctionsRateLimiter } from "firebase-functions-rate-limiter";

admin.initializeApp(functions.config().firebase);
const database = admin.database();

const perUserlimiter = FirebaseFunctionsRateLimiter.withRealtimeDbBackend(
    {
        name: "per_user_limiter",
        maxCalls: 2,
        periodSeconds: 15,
    },
    database,
);

exports.authenticatedFunction = 
  functions.https.onCall(async (data, context) => {
    if (!context.auth || !context.auth.uid) {
        throw new functions.https.HttpsError(
            "failed-precondition",
            "Please authenticate",
        );
    }
    const uidQualifier = "u_" + context.auth.uid;
    const isQuotaExceeded = await perUserlimiter.isQuotaExceededOrRecordUsage(uidQualifier);
    if (isQuotaExceeded) {
        throw new functions.https.HttpsError(
            "failed-precondition",
            "Call quota exceeded for this user. Try again later",
        );
    }
  
    return { result: "Function called" };
});

```

### Step-by-step

**#1** Initialize admin app and get Realtime database object

```typescript
admin.initializeApp(functions.config().firebase);
const database = admin.database();
```

**#2** Create limiter object outside of the function scope and pass the configuration and Database object. Configuration options are listed below.

```typescript
const someLimiter = FirebaseFunctionsRateLimiter.withRealtimeDbBackend(
    {
        name: "limiter_some",
        maxCalls: 10,
        periodSeconds: 60,
    },
    database,
);
```

**#3** Inside the function call isQuotaExceededOrRecordUsage. This is an async function so not forget about **await**! The function will check if the limit was exceeded. If limit was not exceeded it will record this usage and return true. Otherwise, write will be only called if there are usage records that are older than the specified period and are about to being cleared.

```typescript
exports.testRateLimiter = 
  functions.https.onRequest(async (req, res) => {
    const quotaExceeded = await limiter.isQuotaExceededOrRecordUsage();
    if (quotaExceeded) {
    	// respond with error
    } else {
      // continue
    }
```

**#3 with qualifier**. Optionally you can pass **a qualifier** to the function. A qualifier is a string that identifies a separate type of call. If you pass a qualifier, the limit will be recorded per each distinct qualifier and won't sum up.

```typescript
exports.testRateLimiter = 
  functions.https.onRequest(async (req, res) => {
    const qualifier = "user_1";
    const quotaExceeded = await limiter.isQuotaExceededOrRecordUsage(qualifier);
    if (quotaExceeded) {
    	// respond with error
    } else {
      // continue
    }
```

## Configuration

```typescript
const configuration = {
  name: // a collection with this name will be created
  periodSeconds: // the length of test period in seconds
  maxCalls: // number of maximum allowed calls in the period
  debug: // boolean (default false)
};
```

#### Choose backend:

```typescript
const limiter = FirebaseFunctionsRateLimiter.withRealtimeDbBackend(configuration, database)
// or
const limiter = FirebaseFunctionsRateLimiter.withFirestoreBackend(configuration, firestore)
// or, for functions unit testing convenience:
const limiter = FirebaseFunctionsRateLimiter.mock()
```

## Methods

- `isQuotaExceededOrRecordUsage(qualifier?: string)` — Checks if quota was exceed. If not — it records the call time in the appropriate backend.

- `rejectOnQuotaExceededOrRecordUsage(qualifier?: string, errorFactory?: (configuration) => Error)` — Checks if quota was exceed. If not — it records the call time in the appropriate backend and is rejected with *functions.https.HttpsException*. This particular exception can be caught when calling the firebase function directly (see https://firebase.google.com/docs/functions/callable). When errorFactory is provided, it is used to obtain error that is thrown in case of exceeded limit.

- `isQuotaAlreadyExceeded(qualifier?: string)` — Checks if quota was exceed, but does not record a usage. If you use this, you must call isQuotaExceededOrRecordUsage() to record the usage.

- `getConfiguration()` — Returns this rate limiter configuration.
  
- ~~`isQuotaExceeded(qualifier?: string)`~~ — **deprecated**: renamed to isQuotaExceededOrRecordUsage

- ~~`rejectOnQuotaExceeded(qualifier?: string)`~~ — **deprecated**: renamed to rejectOnQuotaExceededOrRecordUsage

Why is there no `recordUsage()` method?** This library uses a document-per-qualifier data model which requires a read call before the update call. Read-and-update is performed inside an atomic transaction in both backend. It would not be concurrency-safe if the read-and-update transaction was split into separate calls.

### Firebase configuration

There is no configuration needed in the firebase. This library does not do document search, so you do not need indexes. Also, functions are executed in the firebase admin environment, so you do not have to specify any rules.
