Rate limiter not blocking requests

[ghost]

I tried to implement rate limiting for an API which will be allowed to call only 10 times per minute but if the limit exceeds, it should be blocked for 30 minutes. The API endpoint throws an error if it is called more than 10 times, however, after one minute, I am able to call the API again, instead of the API endpoint getting blocked for 30 minutes.

I have added a sample repo for example in which the error is reproduced.

In start/limiter.ts file, I have defined the rule as follows:

import { Limiter } from '@adonisjs/limiter/build/services'

export const { httpLimiters } = Limiter.define('global', () => {
  return Limiter.allowRequests(1).every('1 min').blockFor('5 min')
})

In start/routes.ts file, I have added the middleware as follows:

import Route from '@ioc:Adonis/Core/Route'

Route.get('/', async () => {
  return { hello: 'world' }
}).middleware('throttle:global')

Can anyone please help verify if the above way of blocking the request is valid? Or Do I need to block the request manually as defined on https://docs.adonisjs.com/guides/rate-limiting#login-endpoint-brute-force-protection?
