How to change "LIMIT RATE" settings?

[Gianluca Busiello]

I'm running RB v4.x and I'm affected by the error:

API Error 114: API Rate Limit Exceeded

which is due to the http response from the server:

urllib.error.HTTPError: HTTP Error 429: Too Many Requests

when running a large query through the rbtools library.

I would like to relax the rate limits to make my query work reliably and I have found out that the setting "API_AUTHENTICATED_LIMIT_RATE" is what I am looking for.

I tried to set it to None in settings_local.py as a first step, but it doesn't seem to have any effect on the rate limit.

My questions are:

- is settings_local.py the right place to control the settings?

- is "None" the right value to disable api limit rates? or should I override the default with a new value?

Any help would be really appreciated.

Regards,

Gianluca

Hi,

That should be the correct setting to change. You probably need to restart the web server in order for that change to take effect.

Thanks David,

the reviewboard service is running in a container which was restarted when I tested the new settings. I'll try again and let you know what happens!

[SOLVED]

Used an explicit configuration set to 10 times the defaults:

API_AUTHENTICATED_LIMIT_RATE = "100000/h"   # Default 10,000/h
API_ANONYMOUS_LIMIT_RATE = "10000/h"    # Default 1,000/h
LOGIN_LIMIT_RATE = "50/m"   # Default 5/m

Not sure if the problem was in the use of "None" as value.
