How to write log to file

Question

I\'m trying to write to a log file with Go.

I have tried several approaches, all of which have failed. This is what I have tried:

func TestLogging(t          


        

Answer 1

I prefer the simplicity and flexibility of the 12 factor app recommendation for logging. To append to a log file you can use shell redirection. The default logger in Go writes to stderr (2).

./app 2>> logfile
