documentation

Each service is initialized with resources it needs and consists of:
-service (logical implementation)
-transport (communication HTTP)
-transportRoutes (Aggregation of all transports).
There is an additional default implementation of transport which implements:
DecodeRequest and EncodeResponse.
Utils and Dao are additional layer added to service to add more structure and code familiarity.
Errors and logging are subtly handled by go error and typecasting at transport level. Errors may also be logged at the time of creation.

TODO

Add unit tests
Add db migration tool
