Rate limits 🚦

Now you can define uploading limits for clients (identified by IP address) by setting up quota and cycle params in.env file:

...
### Rate limiter params
# QUOTA is a number of images could be uploaded per target time CYCLE in seconds
# For example: not more 3 images per 60 seconds (quota=3, cycle=60)
RATE_LIMITER_QUOTA=3
RATE_LIMITER_CYCLE=60
#DISABLE_RATE_LIMITER=True

Image's link with an extension

From this moment Capella return image's URL with an extension by default.
Useful when you need to validate image's link.

https://capella.pics/69256e83-66e1-449a-b0c2-5414d332e3a6.jpg

You still can get an image by link without extension.

https://capella.pics/69256e83-66e1-449a-b0c2-5414d332e3a6

Now Capella returns information about uploaded image:

• mime type of image
• width and height
• average color of image in hex format
• size in bytes
