Rate Limit Calculator

Sending messages in a channel

// Discord.js - Rate Limit Handling

// Discord.js automatically handles rate limits
// You don't need to manually implement delays

const { REST } = require('@discordjs/rest');
const rest = new REST({ version: '10' }).setToken('YOUR_BOT_TOKEN');

// Example: Send multiple messages with automatic rate limit handling
async function sendMultipleMessages(channel, messages) {
  for (const content of messages) {
    try {
      await channel.send(content);
      // Discord.js automatically waits if rate limited
    } catch (error) {
      if (error.code === 429) {
        // Rate limited - Discord.js will retry automatically
        console.log('Rate limited, waiting...');
      } else {
        console.error('Error:', error);
      }
    }
  }
}

// Listen for rate limit events
client.rest.on('rateLimited', (info) => {
  console.log(`Rate limited on route ${info.route}`);
  console.log(`Retry after: ${info.timeToReset}ms`);
  console.log(`Limit: ${info.limit}`);
  console.log(`Global: ${info.global}`);
});

// Manual delay for custom logic (1000ms for Send Message)
async function sendWithDelay(channel, messages) {
  for (const content of messages) {
    await channel.send(content);
    await new Promise(resolve => setTimeout(resolve, 1000));
  }
