Hi, thanks for your efforts to this lib.
I have a use case where I don't know the actually value of amount for giving to removeTokens
method until I've sent the request(AWS DynamoDB in my case).
Here is the pseudo code to explain what I mean:
let previousConsumedTokens = 0
async function foo(){
for(let i = 0; i<10 ; i++) {
await bucket.removeTokens(previousConsumedTokens)
previousConsumedTokens = await sendRequest()
}
}
foo() // run only one time will work
// call `foo` multiple times may not work,
// because the `previousConsumedTokens` may not be the "real" previousConsumedTokens.
foo()
So the API may looks like this:
async function foo(){
for(let i = 0; i<10 ; i++) {
await bucket.removePrevTokens()
previousConsumedTokens = await sendRequest()
bucket.addPrevTokens(previousConsumedTokens)
}
}
if you are OK for this feature request, I can send a PR for this, what do you think?
