[ FEATURE REQUEST ] An controller that show you if a source is rate limited

Closed this issue 5 years ago · 5 comments

With that the user can know if a source is rate limited, (GET/RateLimit/YouTube), and will return a boolean.

Why that feature? If a user has more than 1 instances of Concept he can know the best Concept he will use by the rate limit.

Now we need to discover a magic way to know if a source like YouTube or SoundCloud is rate limited lmao.

Nawe, that seems redundant. SoundCloud won't be ratelimiting and neither will BandCamp. If anything, we either add a global proxy for Frostbyte which changes address after x amount of requests or we just return SearchResult.SearchError for sources.

Sure, I was also wanting something else that is missing, is that when you search and find nothing in some sources it returns SearchResult status instead of NoMatches

What do you mean?

When you search anything in SoundCloud for example, and the SoundClound don't return anything (empty array "[]") the Theory continues returning SearchResult instead NoMatches.

Good catch. That seems reasonable.
We can also check all other sources for that as well.
