Usage

1. To simply get and recognize faces in one image

$ curl -F 'image=@myImage.png' http://localhost:9999/recognize

If one or more faces were found, we get a json response (name and base64 image)

[
    {
        "name" : "Diams",
        "string_img" : "iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAAGsAAABrCAIAAAD/3etbAAA5WElEQVR4nHW9244kSZIldo6IqrlHXqq..."
    }

]

2. To simply save a known face

$ curl -H "Content-Type:application/json" -d "[{\"name\" : \"Diams\", string_img : \"iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAAGsAAABrCAIAAAD/3etbAAA5WElEQVR4nHW9244kSZIldo6IqrlHXqq...\"}]

if there is no error the answer will be

{
    "done": true
}

3. To simply get all known faces

$ curl http://localhost:9999/get_all_faces

the response return all saved faces

    {
        "name" : "Voanjo",
        "string_img" : "iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAAGsAAABrCAIAAAD/3etbAAA5WElEQVR4nHW9244kSZIldo6IqrlHXsdxqq..."
