JWT Authentication

1. JWT tokens can be generated from the GET /token endpoint
2. JWT tokens can be validated in the middleware via auth.go
3. JWT tokens need a secret for signing and verifying, and personally what I recommend for production is NOT by putting it in source code, but rather pass in the randomly generated secret via environmental variables. I show an example of environmental variable through configuration

Usage

Health Endpoint

GET /health

Token Endpoint

GET /v1/token

User Endpoints

POST /v1/user/ Body { "Name": "Joe", "Gender": "Male", "Age": 25 }

GET /v1/user/9619e438-ffa5-4a7f-a160-e2203593d5eb
