I am at that point of the project where I have absolutely no idea how to do what i want to do.

What do you want to do, maybe I can help :)

@cr78 I write an Api which accesses another api and i want to cache some data. I also have to implement rate limiting

@404response if your api uses express, google "express rate limit", there's a middleware that can do that easily. For caching I recommend redis (scalable, fast and powerful) in which you could store your values with a set timeout (see google "redis cache")

If you need help, I'm your age and also speak german... What's your discord name/tag?

@cr78 thank you, I will have a look. We have already added us :) My old name was mightyleguan

Commenting to see future responses. Good stuff

@404response oh, I didn't know about your name change, hello haha

@cr78 haha, np :D i will probably work on my project again later, i will tell you if it works

@404response great, do that! I'll get some sleep now

Same here....stuck !!

Aren't we all?

Don't know how to do what I want to do? My daily business 😂

Take a look at Pyhton and Flask. It is ideal for light REST microservices (restful apis). Requests and Requests-cache are packages you need. And it is all you need. Flask's Quick Start is all you have to know, then take a look at Requests-cache Quick Start, and well, thats all. Caching in memory/database/redis, you can also write your own provider if you want to.

Another vote for redis
