        Simple Python module providing rate limiting.
        
        Overview
        --------
        
        This package provides the ``ratelimiter`` module, which ensures that an
        operation will not be executed more than a given number of times on a
        given period. This can prove useful when working with third parties APIs
        which require for example a maximum of 10 requests per second.
        
        Usage
        -----
        
        Decorator flavor:
        
        ::
        
            >>> from ratelimiter import RateLimiter
            >>> @RateLimiter(max_calls=10, period=1.0)
            ... def do_something():
            ...     pass
            ...
        
        Context manager flavor:
        
        ::
        
            >>> from ratelimiter import RateLimiter
            >>> rate_limiter = RateLimiter(max_calls=10, period=1.0)
            >>> for i in range(100):
            ...     with rate_limiter:
            ...         do_something()
            ...
        
        Using with callback:
        
        ::
        
            >>> from ratelimiter import RateLimiter
            >>> import time
            >>> def limited(until):
            ...     duration = int(round(until - time.time()))
            ...     print('Rate limited, sleeping for %d seconds' % duration)
            ...
            >>> rate_limiter = RateLimiter(max_calls=2, period=3, callback=limited)
            >>> for i in range(3):
            ...     with rate_limiter:
            ...         print('Iteration', i)
            ...
            Iteration 0
            Iteration 1
            Rate limited, sleeping for 3 seconds
            Iteration 2
