CRUD Location Service [Requirement]

The location service has following REST endpoints to store and retrieve locations. All the data must be persisted into MongoDB. To lookup coordinates of a location,i have used use Google Map Api. This project use database on free Mongolab. ALL CRUD operations are defined using Mongolab. For go and Mongodb integration. I have used mgo.

Testing and Execution Steps: For testing this project: use any REST client. I have used POSTER from Mozilla Firefox. Below are the steps for performing CRUD operations:

Run the server through command prompt: go run MainFile.go DeleteData.go GetData.go PostData.go PutData.go

Configuration steps in POSTER:
