11.5. Using Map Services

You can use the mapping services key() and value() to extract keys and values, for example from a guideword analysis table.

To recreate part of a guideword analysis table as a table in a report, you can use a template as shown below. Keys, such as guideword names, and values, such as the corresponding failure descriptions, can be mapped from the guideword analysis table to the M2Doc report.

Note that this table is structured to list the guidewords and findings vertically instead of horizontally. This is because there are variable numbers of guideword results and findings results for each entry. Because we are using for loops, the table can grow vertically, but not horizontally.

Element

Guideword

Findings

{ m:for e | analysis.entries }

{ m:e.element.name }

{ m:for f | e.guidewordToFailures }

{ m:f.key().name }

{ m:for mf | f.value() }

{ m:mf.name }

{ m:endfor }

The resulting table is shown below.
