"Gaviti" Exam/Task

This is my code for the task. it uses Flask, PyMongo and Celery to serve 2 endpoints:

• POST /search => allows to search for records in a local MongoDB by 2 fields, 'startDate' and 'endDate'. the results of the query are saved locally and the response is a link to download the local file with the results.
• GET /download/ => get specific file by the filename (excluding file format). response is the content of file.
