Grammar
N3AI-drafted〜とおり(に)
just as; exactly as
Formation
V-る/V-た + とおり(に)/N + のとおり(に)/N + どおり(に)
Usage
This says an action is done, or a result turns out, exactly in the way indicated: as instructed, as expected, as written. V-る + とおりに looks forward to what is about to be shown or said, while V-た + とおりに refers to what has already been done or said. After a noun, both Nのとおりに and the compound form Nどおりに are used (予定どおり, 説明どおり); the どおり form is very common in set phrases. It is neutral in register and appears in both instructions and everyday speech.
