Answer 1

I usually print the logs on screen and write into a file as well. Hope this helps someone.

f, err := os.OpenFile("/tmp/orders.log", os.O_RDWR|os.O_CREATE|os.O_APPEND, 0666)
if err != nil {
    log.Fatalf("error opening file: %v", err)
}
defer f.Close()
wrt := io.MultiWriter(os.Stdout, f)
log.SetOutput(wrt)
log.Println(" Orders API Called")
