Quick n' Dirty Go HTTP Server

Simple Go HTTP server that offers a couple of routes to test/benchmark systems using HTTP GET/POST methods.

Build and Run

• run go build

TODO

• Evaluate replacing atomics with channels
• Cleanup code to use packages to clean up
• Accept some options using https://github.com/spf13/cobra
• Provide endpoint for stats (for now /api/now offers total requests)
• Add TLS support
