Request rate limiter interface
------------------------------

[](#request-rate-limiter-interface)

Limits the number of requests per time.

- There are two parameters: `period` and `rate`.
- A request is a call of the `inc()` method. An `inc()` method begins to return false if number of requests per `period` is higher than a `rate`. Unit of `period` MAY be second or any other time unit.

Test notes
----------

[](#test-notes)

`test.sh` runs the PHPUnit tests.

`test-coverage.sh` generates the PHPUnit coverage analysis to the temp folder.

If the `php -v` command does not show the `with Xdebug` line, note that for coverage testing you might need to manually edit the php.ini used by your PHP CLI in order to enable the

```
; XDEBUG Extension
```
