unclear how to rate limit by IP address about limiter HOT 3 CLOSED

alright, I just did a ctrl-f for "IP" and low and behold IP addresses are the basis for the lib. that's good news. however, it's not all that clear - why not just copy some of the code from the library to the readme that handles the IP and that way show potential users how it works? that's my request :)

Hello 🙂

It's written on the README:

Usage:
In five steps:

• Create a limiter.Rate instance (the number of requests per period)
• Create a limiter.Store instance (see Redis or In-Memory)
• Create a limiter.Limiter instance that takes store and rate instances as arguments
• Create a middleware instance using the middleware of your choice
• Give the limiter instance to your middleware initializer

You also have multiple examples of working implementation with different middleware.

But I take your point, I'll add a middleware example in the code block.
