This example demonstrates how to use Go kit to implement a REST-y HTTP service. It leverages the excellent gorilla mux package for routing.
Run the example with the optional port address for the service:
$ go run ./cmd/profilesvc/main.go -http.addr :8080
ts=2018-05-01T16:13:12.849086255Z caller=main.go:47 transport=HTTP addr=:8080
Create a Profile:
$ curl -d '{"id":"1234","Name":"Go Kit"}' -H "Content-Type: application/json" -X POST http://localhost:8080/profiles/
{}
Get the profile you just created
$ curl localhost:8080/profiles/1234
{"profile":{"id":"1234","name":"Go Kit"}}
