• example of using migration command migrate -path migrations/ -database postgres://postgres:postgres@localhost/restapi_dev?sslmode=disable up
• example of curl usage with json curl -X POST -d '{"email":"[e-mail]", "password":"password"}' -v -i 'http://localhost:8080/users'
• creating session with cookie http -v --session=user POST http://localhost:8080/sessions email=[e-mail] password=password
• request to private info with cookie http -v --session=user http://localhost:8080/private/whoami
