Create Rate Limit

[GEEKGEEKOP]

How do you create rate limits with telebot? Please add it to the examples.

import telebot
import time

# Initialize your bot with the bot token
bot = telebot.TeleBot("YOUR_BOT_TOKEN")

# Define the decorator function for rate limiting
def rate_limit(limit, interval):
    def decorator(func):
        last_called = [0]

        def wrapper(*args, **kwargs):
            now = time.time()
            if now - last_called[0] < interval:
                # Rate limit exceeded, raise an exception
                raise telebot.apihelper.ApiTelegramException("Too many requests")
            else:
                last_called[0] = now
                return func(*args, **kwargs)

        return wrapper

    return decorator

# Example command with rate limiting
@bot.message_handler(commands=['start'])
@rate_limit(limit=1, interval=5)  # Allow only 1 request per 5 seconds
def start_command(message):
    bot.reply_to(message, "Hello! This is a rate-limited command.")

# Start the bot
bot.polling()

This has been created by artificial intelligence.

I feel it's not strong enough.
