I used Gorilla Mux to make the routes of the API. You need to install and you can do it using run the following command

go get -u github.com/gorilla/mux

https://github.com/gorilla/mux

To know if the server is up you will use the route:

/health

To get all the persons saved in the collection you can use the route:

/persons

To get the details of one person you can use the route (using GET method):

/persons/{id}

To save a new person to the collection you can use the POST route:

/person

POST Body:

{
	"id": "4e",
	"name": "Aaron",
	"last_name": "Moran",
	"age": 23,
	"civil_state": 1
}

To update the information of a person you can use the PUT route:

/person/{id}

	"id": "4e",
	"name": "Aaron",
	"last_name": "Moran",
	"age": 23,
