Metadata

Override meta() to add metadata to a single top-level Resource response.

class UserResource extends Resource<User> {
  toArray() {
    return {
      id: this.resource.id,
      name: this.resource.name,
    };
  }

  meta() {
    return {
      version: "1.0",
    };
  }
}

Output:

{
  "data": {
    "id": 1,
    "name": "John"
  },
  "meta": {
    "version": "1.0"
  }
}

Scope

Metadata applies to top-level make() responses only.

• Collection items do not include per-item metadata.
• Nested Resource metadata is discarded.
• Pagination uses its documented pagination metadata.

This keeps response envelopes stable and easy to consume.
