Adding meta data to output? about fractal

[ipalaus]

You can't do it right now, see how the output is generated: https://github.com/thephpleague/fractal/blob/master/src/League/Fractal/Scope.php#L110

I definitely want to add a simple way to append meta data to the output, but have not got the time to work on this for a few weeks.

If anyone wants to take a stab at it I certainly wouldn’t be mad. :)

More a question than an issue I think (hope xD).
But how can I add meta data to the output?

fx. adding a token property like this:

{
"token": "b94hIJINQlPYIz7sOLRXbuMmsOH9KF60",
"data": {
"id": 26,
"email": "[email protected]",
"name": "Test User",
"api_token": null,
"created_at": "2014-01-24 03:34:58",
"updated_at": "2014-01-24 03:34:58"
},
"embeds": [
"games"
]
}

Just adding something "besides" data and embeds?

What if a Transformer included a meta method that could return an array of meta data that would simply be merged with the top level?

Just thinking. Would meta data be applicable to embeddable data or should it always go to the top level?

@jasonlewis that certainly seems logical enough. :)
