For instance, a user should only be allowed to send x amount of emails to other members of the site in order to reduce the spam risk.</p> <p> Since this is a quite common task, I thought I might as well make it as a Rails plugin for better code reusability.</p> <p> I am now releasing <a href="http://github.com/fredwu/action_throttler">Action Throttler</a>, an easy to use Rails plugin to quickly throttle application actions based on configurable duration and limit. <a href="http://github.com/fredwu/action_throttler">Go check out the code now!</a> :)</p> <p> There is currently no tests for the plugin but I will be adding rspec specs to it soon.</p> ]]> http://persumi.com/u/fredwu/tech/e/blog/p/rails-releasing-action-throttler-a-rails-plugin-for-throttling-actions
