# Application limits development
This document provides a development guide for contributors to add application
limits to GitLab.
## Documentation
First of all, you have to gather information and decide which are the different
limits that are set for the different GitLab tiers. You also need to
coordinate with others to [document](../administration/instance_limits.md)
and communicate those limits.
There is a guide about [introducing application
limits](https://about.gitlab.com/handbook/product/product-processes/#introducing-application-limits).
## Development
### Insert database plan limits
In the `plan_limits` table, create a new column and insert the limit values.
It's recommended to create two separate migration script files.
1. Add a new column to the `plan_limits` table with non-null default value that
represents desired limit, such as:
```ruby
add_column(:plan_limits, :project_hooks, :integer, default: 100, null: false)
```
Plan limits entries set to `0` mean that limits are not enabled. You should
use this setting only in special and documented circumstances.
1. (Optionally) Create the database migration that fine-tunes each level with a
desired limit using `create_or_update_plan_limit` migration helper, such as:
```ruby
class InsertProjectHooksPlanLimits < Gitlab::Database::Migration[1.0]
def up
create_or_update_plan_limit('project_hooks', 'default', 0)
create_or_update_plan_limit('project_hooks', 'free', 10)
create_or_update_plan_limit('project_hooks', 'bronze', 20)
create_or_update_plan_limit('project_hooks', 'silver', 30)
create_or_update_plan_limit('project_hooks', 'premium', 30)
create_or_update_plan_limit('project_hooks', 'premium_trial', 30)
create_or_update_plan_limit('project_hooks', 'gold', 100)
create_or_update_plan_limit('project_hooks', 'ultimate', 100)
create_or_update_plan_limit('project_hooks', 'ultimate_trial', 100)
end
def down
create_or_update_plan_limit('project_hooks', 'default', 0)
create_or_update_plan_limit('project_hooks', 'free', 0)
create_or_update_plan_limit('project_hooks', 'bronze', 0)
create_or_update_plan_limit('project_hooks', 'silver', 0)
create_or_update_plan_limit('project_hooks', 'premium', 0)
create_or_update_plan_limit('project_hooks', 'premium_trial', 0)
create_or_update_plan_limit('project_hooks', 'gold', 0)
create_or_update_plan_limit('project_hooks', 'ultimate', 0)
create_or_update_plan_limit('project_hooks', 'ultimate_trial', 0)
end
end
```
Some plans exist only on GitLab.com. This is a no-op for plans
that do not exist.
### Plan limits validation
#### Get current limit
Access to the current limit can be done through the project or the namespace,
such as:
```ruby
project.actual_limits.project_hooks
```
#### Check current limit
There is one method `PlanLimits#exceeded?` to check if the current limit is
being exceeded. You can use either an `ActiveRecord` object or an `Integer`.
Ensures that the count of the records does not exceed the defined limit, such as:
```ruby
project.actual_limits.exceeded?(:project_hooks, ProjectHook.where(project: project))
```
Ensures that the number does not exceed the defined limit, such as:
```ruby
project.actual_limits.exceeded?(:project_hooks, 10)
```
#### `Limitable` concern
The [`Limitable` concern](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/blob/master/app/models/concerns/limitable.rb)
can be used to validate that a model does not exceed the limits. It ensures
that the count of the records for the current model does not exceed the defined
limit.
You must specify the limit scope of the object being validated
and the limit name if it's different from the pluralized model name.
```ruby
class ProjectHook
include Limitable
self.limit_name = 'project_hooks' # Optional as ProjectHook corresponds with project_hooks
self.limit_scope = :project
end
```
To test the model, you can include the shared examples.
```ruby
it_behaves_like 'includes Limitable concern' do
subject { build(:project_hook, project: create(:project)) }
end
```
### Testing instance-wide limits
Instance-wide features always use `default` Plan, as instance-wide features
do not have license assigned.
```ruby
class InstanceVariable
include Limitable
self.limit_name = 'instance_variables' # Optional as InstanceVariable corresponds with instance_variables
self.limit_scope = Limitable::GLOBAL_SCOPE
end
```
### Subscription Plans
> The `opensource` plan was [introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/346399) in GitLab 14.7.
Self-managed:
- `default`: Everyone.
GitLab.com:
- `default`: Any system-wide feature.
- `free`: Namespaces and projects with a Free subscription.
- `bronze`: Namespaces and projects with a Bronze subscription. This tier is no longer available for purchase.
- `silver`: Namespaces and projects with a Premium subscription.
- `premium`: Namespaces and projects with a Premium subscription.
- `premium_trial`: Namespaces and projects with a Premium Trial subscription.
- `gold`: Namespaces and projects with an Ultimate subscription.
- `ultimate`: Namespaces and projects with an Ultimate subscription.
- `ultimate_trial`: Namespaces and projects with an Ultimate Trial subscription.
- `opensource`: Namespaces and projects that are member of GitLab Open Source program.
The `test` environment doesn't have any plans.
