Defined in: react-pacer/src/async-rate-limiter/useAsyncRateLimitedCallback.ts:61

A React hook that creates a rate-limited version of an async callback function. This hook is a convenient wrapper around the useAsyncRateLimiter hook, providing a stable, async rate-limited function reference for use in React components.

Async rate limiting is a "hard limit" approach for async functions: it allows all calls until the limit is reached, then blocks (rejects) subsequent calls until the window resets. Unlike throttling or debouncing, it does not attempt to space out or collapse calls. This can lead to bursts of rapid executions followed by periods where all calls are blocked.

The async rate limiter supports two types of windows:

• 'fixed': A strict window that resets after the window period. All executions within the window count towards the limit, and the window resets completely after the period.
• 'sliding': A rolling window that allows executions as old ones expire. This provides a more consistent rate of execution over time.

For smoother execution patterns, consider:

• useAsyncThrottledCallback: When you want consistent spacing between executions (e.g. UI updates)
• useAsyncDebouncedCallback: When you want to collapse rapid calls into a single execution (e.g. search input)

Async rate limiting should primarily be used when you need to enforce strict limits on async operations, like API rate limits or other scenarios requiring hard caps on execution frequency.

This hook provides a simpler API compared to useAsyncRateLimiter, making it ideal for basic async rate limiting needs. However, it does not expose the underlying AsyncRateLimiter instance.

For advanced usage requiring features like:

• Manual cancellation
• Access to execution counts
• Custom useCallback dependencies

Consider using the useAsyncRateLimiter hook instead.
