- golang's net/http
- mgo driver, which connects to MongoDB

-- this returns the total amount spent on that day
e.g. Request-> curl -G http://localhost:8080/totals/day
Response-> {[{"Date":"2015-11-30T05:30:00+05:30","Amount":600}]}
b. "/totals/category" -- this returns the category wise total amount spent
e.g. Request-> curl -G http://localhost:8080/totals/category
Response-> [{"Category":"Food","Amount":600}]
- POST request

-- this is used to add expenses in the database
e.g. curl -d '{"Amount":300,"Category":"Food","Date":"2015-11-30T00:00:00Z"}' http://localhost:8080/expense
