JavaScript DefaultDict

class DefaultDict {
    constructor(defaultInit) {
        return new Proxy(
            {},
            {
                get: (target, name) =>
                    name in target
                        ? target[name]
                        : (target[name] =
                              typeof defaultInit === "function"
                                  ? new defaultInit().valueOf()
                                  : defaultInit),
            }
        );
    }
}

const counts = new DefaultDict(0);
counts.c += 1; // 1

const lists = new DefaultDict(Array);
lists.men.push("bob");
lists.women.push("alice");
console.log(lists.men); // ['bob']
console.log(lists.women); // ['alice']
console.log(lists.nonbinary); // []

defaultdict with Map in JS

  • in TODO: how do I create a default value for a Map()?? extending it isn't enough????
  • I need to create a proxy with this???
class MapWithDefault extends Map {
    get(key) {
        if (!this.has(key)) this.set(key, this.default());
        return super.get(key);
    }

    constructor(defaultFunction, entries) {
        super(entries);
        this.default = defaultFunction;
    }
}

const m = new MapWithDefault(() => 0);

Fetch again after a second

fetchAgain() {
  const res = await fetch();
  if (!res.ok) {
  delay(1000);
  return fetchAgain();
  } else {
  return res;
  }
}

Rate limiting

Rate limit concurrent API calls?

max 100 concurrent API calls at once

semaphore variable

tokens = 100

for every new job, if tokens > 0, make the API call

decrement the variable

Rate limit per user

example: max 5 requests every second

instead of a single bucket of tokens for all users

each user has a bucket of tokens

which gets decremented when you make an API call

Can't store an int for every user

Store a list of dates

Periodically flush the table

Implement rate limiter (for API calls)

How do you avoid using setTimeout

so that your function isn't running every 100ms even though the job queue is empty?

keep track of the last time we reset the tokens

if now is 100ms after the interval, reset the number of tokens
