Throttling an API that 429s after too many requests

QUESTION

Throttling an API that 429s after too many requests

Asked 2020-Jul-29 at 00:14

I'm trying to make several requests to the BoardGameGeek (BGG) API and after a certain amount of requests within a certain time frame, I get timed out (status code 429). I've tried a couple of libraries to try and get this to work.

I've tried using the simple-rate-limiter library as below, but this didn't work because BGG seems pretty aggressive with their rate limiting and they don't publish official limits anyways.

...

ANSWER

Answered 2020-Jul-29 at 00:14

This solution is specifically for the BoardGameGeek API.

So instead of doing a bunch of individual requests such as:
/xmlapi2/thing?stats=1&id=188920
/xmlapi2/thing?stats=1&id=174476

You can batch them all into one request like this:
/xmlapi2/thing?stats=1&id=188920,174476

This means that you're only sending off 1 request and will not get rate limited.
I did find out that this still does fail if you attach over ~1200 game ids though. The server responds with 414 Request-URI Too Large.
Here's an example of that error.

If you need more then 1200 then you'll probably have to split the game ids and make multiple requests so that you only request 1200 at a time.
