What's the easiest way to map JSON array values to a dictionary using jq?

How can I make a key value dictionary using jq?

If I do: cat api_fm.json | jq -r "[ .[].name, .[].status ]"
I receive:

[
"plugin",
"c_docker_2",
"c_docker_5",
"c_docker_4",
"c_docker_3",
"c_docker_1",
"Started",
"Started",
"Started",
"Started",
"Started",
"Started"
]

So, I would like to map the name with the status like this:

[
"plugin: started"
…
]

>Solution :

Here is one way:

jq 'map("\(.name): \(.status)")'
