API Rate limit exceeded

[Renegadezz]

What happened?

When hopping between multiple projects (opening and closing zed multiple times, or having multiple zed instances open) I quite often run into this API Rate limit error:

Language server jdtls:

from extension "Java" version 6.7.1: status error 403, response: "{\"message\":\"API rate limit exceeded for xx.xx.xxx.xxx. (But here's the good news: Authenticated requests get a higher rate limit. Check out the documentation for more details.)\",\"documentation_url\":\"https://docs.github.com/rest/overview/resources-in-the-rest-api#rate-limiting\"}\n"

This is on my work laptop and I'm logged in with my github account.

My settings:

"lsp": {
    "jdtls": {
      "settings": {
        "jdk_auto_download": true,
        "check_updates": "once"
      }
    }
  }

This makes it impossible to navigate java projects, as you cannot go to definitions or check usages, etc..

What did you expect to happen?

I expected to be able to go to definitions, etc of variables, function and more.

Environment

Zed: v0.213.8
Platform: Ubuntu 24.04.3 LTS

Thanks for reporting this issue. The check_updates setting is available in the repository code, but it’s not yet included in the released extension you can install via Zed. That’s why you’ve encountered the API limit. Once the updated code is released, you won’t experience this issue anymore.

[Renegadezz]

Awesome, is there any estimate to when that will be released ?

[tartarughina]

I'm planning to make the new release this weekend, ETA for the extension to be available on Zed is early next week.

[Renegadezz]

Great to hear, thanks!

[Renegadezz]

This is still a problem for me.
I tried with both "check_updates": "once" and "check_updates": "never""

[tartarughina]

Have you updated to version 6.8.0?

[Renegadezz]

Yes

[Renegadezz]

It usually happens the first time I open Zed each day or if I have to restart Zed during the day.

[tartarughina]

Thanks, I'll work on a more robust solution that avoids calling GitHub as often

[Renegadezz]

Update
I've been running with "check_updates": "never" for this past week, and it seems to work as intended.
I haven't hit the rate limit, even when opening and closing zed multiple times a day.

Hey @Renegadezz, PR #160 should resolve the issue as "once" mode has been made more robust.
Since that is not yet merged let me know if running it solve the issue for you.
