solution of a test task given on an job interview

this is my solution of an interview task:

The task

1. create a go service that reads from a YAML config file:

apiKeys:

• a
• b
• couldBeOneOrMore
• reallylongreallylongreallylongreallylongreallylongreallylongreallylongreallylongreallylongreallylongreallylongreallylongreallylongreallylongreallylongreallylongreallylongreallylongreallylong listenPort: 80 mongoDb: connectionString: “mongodb://localhost:27017” targetCollection: "auditlogs"

2. app shall start an multi-threaded http server on the configured port

3. the server shall accept a REST call (POST to /auditlog) that requires a JSON structure, i.e.:

{ "apiKey": "7GXv.^7PWJkHW}4:(UW?jWA5bDV+=q;JV&z+'&#)Q6,XR7VpWnTL/t,*9@?^?Fa>TC=b2gX%/&~xg\Ej@/)5J~r)m9RhrMfvt2g$qfx89>%e4$?P$_(a5B7RGdk2ksEj@RRtwP;P[%YF.X5'SQmc<H7XH^JD>89TNh-nN*HY[^bm+Yq.=~[yzD)n?Y,dbe3uz&Bb;q"~gkmH(b3s8#a\Dy.jDMpER?j52eS[YdYAz2/ST\yAL"dys3Spa'rUU]r%ZB)f8q8Gs!B!zrZCH+bRs;4NnR(gF.rW]h4.LrrF/tYB?y4U<FGLK6cA}(6DZ;AWf]%Q2w6jW~(){mz[sBD-<YSH#Eh+u"C.W#p?'{SZ'4CkCAV*TW8~]4p4?p.nfLmSjsYC.WF{6Z_zS+vQE9yEqr?@^VZ:QWC?A*^7')k+y?@J:</YF8MTzg>x]9dM~@2#N+s/'}z?:m=TmdH6kf]K%yY_uE({]UYY4VBk6[2s)9?vu!cLj5uaR?2jFZ/", "url" : "/order/create", "companyId" : "5ba0d465855a51722785f967", "object" : "something-as-this-field-is-optional", "action" : "OrderCreate", "data" : "[{"_id":"5cf97d9be3e361e0e4aaff97","index":0,"guid":"2f2ef81a-4ad4-4ac0-843a-33b1f53812e7","isActive":false,"balance":"$2,827.22","picture":"http://placehold.it/32x32","age":31,"eyeColor":"green","name":"Leblanc Palmer","gender":"male","company":"COMVENE","email":"[email protected]","phone":"[phone]","address":"647 Losee Terrace, Blodgett, Pennsylvania, 6956","about":"Ullamco Lorem elit labore culpa cupidatat duis irure labore adipisicing.

4. check if apiKey is known -> if not found within the values from the config files, respond with 401 unauthorized error and ignore -> if known, persist record into the specified collection (everything received except apiKey)
