Go如何实现HTTP请求限流示例

在开发高并发系统时有三把利器用来保护系统：缓存、降级和限流!为了保证在业务高峰期，线上系统也能保证一定的弹性和稳定性，最有效的方案就是进行服务降级了，而限流就是降级系统最常采用的方案之一。

这里为大家推荐一个开源库 https://github.com/didip/tollbooth 但是，如果您想要一些简单的、轻量级的或者只是想要学习的东西，实现自己的中间件来处理速率限制并不困难。今天我们就来聊聊如何实现自己的一个限流中间件

首先我们需要安装一个提供了 Token bucket (令牌桶算法)的依赖包，上面提到的toolbooth 的实现也是基于它实现的

$ go get golang.org/x/time/rate

好了我们先看Demo代码的实现：

limit.go

package main

import (
  "net/http"

  "golang.org/x/time/rate"
)

var limiter = rate.NewLimiter(2, 5)

func limit(next http.Handler) http.Handler {
  return http.HandlerFunc(func(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) {
    if limiter.Allow() == false {
      http.Error(w, http.StatusText(429), http.StatusTooManyRequests)
      return
    }

    next.ServeHTTP(w, r)
  })
}

main.go

package main

import (
  "net/http"
)

func main() {
  mux := http.NewServeMux()
  mux.HandleFunc("/", okHandler)

  // Wrap the servemux with the limit middleware.
  http.ListenAndServe(":4000", limit(mux))
}

func okHandler(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) {
  w.Write([]byte("OK"))
}

我们看看 rate.NewLimiter的源码：

// Copyright 2015 The Go Authors. All rights reserved.
// Use of this source code is governed by a BSD-style
// license that can be found in the LICENSE file.

// Package rate provides a rate limiter.
package rate

import (
 "fmt"
 "math"
 "sync"
 "time"

 "golang.org/x/net/context"
)

// Limit defines the maximum frequency of some events.
// Limit is represented as number of events per second.
// A zero Limit allows no events.
type Limit float64

// Inf is the infinite rate limit; it allows all events (even if burst is zero).
const Inf = Limit(math.MaxFloat64)

// Every converts a minimum time interval between events to a Limit.
func Every(interval time.Duration) Limit {
 if interval <= 0 {
  return Inf
 }
 return 1 / Limit(interval.Seconds())
}

// A Limiter controls how frequently events are allowed to happen.
// It implements a "token bucket" of size b, initially full and refilled
// at rate r tokens per second.
// Informally, in any large enough time interval, the Limiter limits the
// rate to r tokens per second, with a maximum burst size of b events.
// As a special case, if r == Inf (the infinite rate), b is ignored.
// See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Token_bucket for more about token buckets.
//
// The zero value is a valid Limiter, but it will reject all events.
// Use NewLimiter to create non-zero Limiters.
//
// Limiter has three main methods, Allow, Reserve, and Wait.
// Most callers should use Wait.
//
// Each of the three methods consumes a single token.
// They differ in their behavior when no token is available.
// If no token is available, Allow returns false.
// If no token is available, Reserve returns a reservation for a future token
// and the amount of time the caller must wait before using it.
// If no token is available, Wait blocks until one can be obtained
// or its associated context.Context is canceled.
//
// The methods AllowN, ReserveN, and WaitN consume n tokens.
type Limiter struct {

// Burst returns the maximum burst size. Burst is the maximum number of tokens
// that can be consumed in a single call to Allow, Reserve, or Wait, so higher
// Burst values allow more events to happen at once.
// A zero Burst allows no events, unless limit == Inf.
func (lim *Limiter) Burst() int {

// bursts of at most b tokens.

}

// A Reservation holds information about events that are permitted by a Limiter to happen after a delay.

type Reservation struct {

 // This is the Limit at reservation time, it can change later.

// OK returns whether the limiter can provide the requested number of tokens

// Delay is shorthand for DelayFrom(time.Now()).

// InfDuration is the duration returned by Delay when a Reservation is not OK.
const InfDuration = time.Duration(1<<63 - 1)

算法描述：

用户配置的平均发送速率为r，则每隔1/r秒一个令牌被加入到桶中（每秒会有r个令牌放入桶中），桶中最多可以存放b个令牌。如果令牌到达时令牌桶已经满了，那么这个令牌会被丢弃；

实现用户粒度的限流

虽然在某些情况下使用单个全局速率限制器非常有用，但另一种常见情况是基于IP地址或API密钥等标识符为每个用户实施速率限制器。我们将使用IP地址作为标识符。简单实现代码如下：

package main
import (
  "net/http"
  "sync"
  "time"

  "golang.org/x/time/rate"
)

// Create a custom visitor struct which holds the rate limiter for each
// visitor and the last time that the visitor was seen.
type visitor struct {
  limiter *rate.Limiter
  lastSeen time.Time
}

// Change the the map to hold values of the type visitor.
var visitors = make(map[string]*visitor)
var mtx sync.Mutex
// Run a background goroutine to remove old entries from the visitors map.
func init() {
  go cleanupVisitors()
}

func addVisitor(ip string) *rate.Limiter {
  limiter := rate.NewLimiter(2, 5)
  mtx.Lock()
  // Include the current time when creating a new visitor.
  visitors[ip] = &visitor{limiter, time.Now()}
  mtx.Unlock()
  return limiter
}

func getVisitor(ip string) *rate.Limiter {
  mtx.Lock()
  v, exists := visitors[ip]
  if !exists {
    mtx.Unlock()
    return addVisitor(ip)
  }
  // Update the last seen time for the visitor.
  v.lastSeen = time.Now()
  mtx.Unlock()
  return v.limiter
}

// Every minute check the map for visitors that haven't been seen for
// more than 3 minutes and delete the entries.
func cleanupVisitors() {
  for {
    time.Sleep(time.Minute)
    mtx.Lock()
    for ip, v := range visitors {
      if time.Now().Sub(v.lastSeen) > 3*time.Minute {
        delete(visitors, ip)
      }
    }
    mtx.Unlock()
  }
}

func limit(next http.Handler) http.Handler {
  return http.HandlerFunc(func(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) {
    limiter := getVisitor(r.RemoteAddr)
    if limiter.Allow() == false {
      http.Error(w, http.StatusText(429), http.StatusTooManyRequests)
      return
    }
    next.ServeHTTP(w, r)
  })
}

当然这只是一个简单的实现方案，如果我们要在微服务的API-GateWay中去实现限流还是要考虑很多东西的。建议大家可以看看 https://github.com/didip/tollbooth 的源码。
