Calling set on a appscript Map object doesn't update the Map

[Jonah Thiele]

I need to create a local map variable for this function however when I run my code below the console logs the key and value pair fine, but displays the map as empty {} braces. I want to figure out how to add to a map in google app script.

function generateMap() {

const scriptPrp = PropertiesService.getScriptProperties();

const anglishWordsE = new Map();

//open by the correct Id

var spreadSheet = SpreadsheetApp.openByUrl("https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/17LscYcsoplcwgqf1f9zE1_eNyNH7pc01WIohO2FEMPs/edit#gid=251904751");

var sheet = spreadSheet.getSheetByName("Wordbook");

//select C2 all the way down the column

var unformattedMeanings = sheet.getRange(2,3,sheet.getLastRow() - 1, 1).getValues();

var unformattedWord = sheet.getRange(2,1,sheet.getLastRow() - 1, 1).getValues();

for(var i = 0; i < unformattedMeanings.length; i++)

{

//split based on the dot seperator

const splitMeanings = unformattedMeanings[i].toString().trim().slice(1,-1).split("᛫");

for(var b = 0; b < splitMeanings.length; b++)

{

// get anglish word

const anglishWord = unformattedWord[i].toString();

console.log(anglishWord);

console.log(splitMeanings[b]);

anglishWordsE.set(anglishWord, splitMeanings[b]);

console.log(anglishWordsE);

}

}

//console.log(anglishWordsE);

//scriptPrp.setProperty("anglishWords", JSON.stringify([...anglishWordsE]));

}

my console output:

What did I miss in creating the map object that is causing the weird errata? I have limited experience with java script so it is possible I missed something elementary.

I think that when the Map object is seen with console.log(anglishWordsE), unfortunately, the values cannot be directly seen. So, please modify your script as follows.

From

console.log(anglishWordsE);

To

console.log([...anglishWordsE]);
