First steps

in app.py you'll see the available requests. Initially the mongodb is empty to fill it run:

curl -X POST http://localhost:5000/load

That is going to load the file data.json in mongodb as two collections: countries and series.

Now you can retrieve countries or series:

curl http://localhost:5000/country/AFG

curl http://localhost:5000/series/country/AFG
