⁠Service endpoints

Endpoints are documented in Swagger⁠

Based on the following google doc⁠.

⁠Healthchecks

Admin endpoints are:

/__gtg

/__health

/__build-info

⁠Logging

• The application uses logrus⁠; the log file is initialised in main.go⁠.
• Logging requires an env app parameter, for all environments other than local logs are written to file.
• When running locally, logs are written to console. If you want to log locally to file, you need to pass in an env parameter that is != local.
• NOTE: /__build-info and /__gtg endpoints are not logged as they are called every second from varnish/vulcand and this information is not needed in logs/splunk.
