A rate-limiting middleware that ensures only the desired number of requests are being worked on concurrently.
npm install express-enqueueA rate-limiting middleware that ensures only the desired number of requests are being worked on concurrently.
express-enqueue is instantiated before use:
``javascript
const Enqueue = require('express-enqueue'),
app = require('express')();
const queue = new Enqueue({
concurrentWorkers: 4,
maxSize: 200,
timeout: 30000
});
app.use(queue.getMiddleware());
app.get('/hello', (req, res) => res.json({hello:'world'}));
app.use(queue.getErrorMiddleware());
app.listen(9000);
`

Gets the error handling middleware that will parse express-enqueue specific errors and send appropriate error codes and messages. It will output them in JSON by default, but when the first argument is set to false it will just output the message.
Returns stats about the queue, {{total: number, inProgress: number, waiting: number}}`
