Can't find a synonym for the word logging?

Question

Ruby on Rails

Actually, help explain to people who are not familiar with the word 'logging'.
I would like to find a well-aimed word, not a sentence or a set of words, but a single word that
would sound equally good both in Russian and in English translation!
In the future, there should be a method of the same name:
write_log("Application started")

Answer 1

tracking

Answer 2

Journaling

Answer 3

chronicle writing

Answer 4

The logging is fine.

Answer 5

Shorthand, event writing what where when remembering...

Answer 6

Journaling, logging, chronicle, but there is no need to reinvent the wheel, what is a log should be logging. Ignorance of this word should not be the reason for its replacement.

Answer 7

I could not find one word,
the most accurate would be "event log" but these are two words. Just "magazine" - not quite right.
Although - a magazine, also not a Russian word.

Answer 8

In general, the words journal and protocol are quite suitable, you just need to take into account when translating into English that it will be log, and not journal.

Answer 9

Journaling. But the word is too long, not always applicable in the texts.
