Fonts preview sets

I want to create fonts preview sets in InDesign as shown in screenshot. I want to apply all the fonts available in a particular family so that It becomes easy for me to copy and paste such styles in an existing document.

Now, I'm doing the regular "drag, select and apply the font" method. Is there a faster way to apply all the font styles available in a family to text lines?

Might be scriptable. Check in the scripting forum.

Just out of curiosity, why do you feel the need for this?

I want to create a styles template for me. This will be handy whenever I want to browse through different fonts and apply paragraph styles based on them quickly. Should I repost this into scripting forum?
