Hi Alumio,
Quite often we’re running into scenario’s where we have to map a particular value. For example doing stuff like “AC” → “Ebook”.
The dictionary mapper is great for this work. It’s easy to use, fits compactly into the UI.
However, it doesn’t allow for “Else” functionality.
Let’s say the customer wants this:
“AC” → “Ebook”
“BB” → “Hardback”
“SC” → “Softcover”
everything else → “Other”
That’s not really possible with the current implementation of the dictionary mapper (I sometimes use stuff like a conditional at the end which checks with regex whether the value has changed, but that’s not a nice solution). You could do it with a conditional with Else-ifs and ending in the ‘else’, but then you’d have an enormous, unreadably long page.
So my question is: could you either add a type of dictionary mapper or update the current dictionary mapper to add an “if nothing matches, then do this” option?
Thanks!
