Hi I think I can solve this ... I think you should try this ... if it is of any use then please merge it.... if possible please assign me this.... this my first time contributing to this big repository

Hi, @Transyltooniaa. Thank you for your interest in this project. You're now assigned.

Here is the implementation (DO let me know if you want anything different :

import time
import random

app = Flask(__name__)

# Define custom delay functions
def random_delay():
    return random.uniform(0, 1)  # Random delay between 0 and 1 second

def fixed_delay():
    return 0.5  # Fixed delay of 0.5 seconds

def custom_delay():
    # Implement your custom delay logic here
    return 1.0  # Custom delay of 1 second

# Middleware to determine delay time
@app.before_request
def determine_delay():
    delay_function = request.args.get('delayFunction')

    if delay_function:
        delay_function = delay_function.lower()
        if delay_function == 'random':
            delay_time = random_delay()
        elif delay_function == 'fixed':
            delay_time = fixed_delay()
        elif delay_function == 'custom':
            delay_time = custom_delay()
        else:
            delay_time = 0  # No delay if the function is not recognized
    else:
        delay_time = 0  # No delay if no function is specified

    if delay_time > 0:
        print(f"Delaying response by {delay_time} seconds")
        time.sleep(delay_time)

# Example route
@app.route('/api/resource')
def get_resource():
    return jsonify({'message': 'Resource retrieved successfully'})

if __name__ == '__main__':
    app.run(debug=True)
