UPDATE_RATE {ratelimitr}

Update the rate limit of an existing rate limited function

Description

UPDATE_RATE modifies an existing rate-limited function in place, changing the rate limits without otherwise altering the function's behavior. When a rate limited function has its rate limits updated, the previous rate limits and any calls that would have counted against those rate limits are immediately forgotten, and only the new rate limits are obeyed going forward.

Usage

UPDATE_RATE(lf, ..., precision = 60)

Arguments

lf

A rate-limited function or group of functions

...

One or more rates, created using rate

precision

The precision with which time intervals can be measured, in hertz

Examples

f <- function() NULL
f_lim <- limit_rate(f, rate(n = 1, period = .1))

# update the rate limits to 2 calls per .1 second
UPDATE_RATE(f_lim, rate(n = 2, period = .1))
