This is what I’ve been doing for a while now:

<?php

namespace AppProviders;

use IlluminateSupportServiceProvider;
use IlluminateHttpResourcesJsonJsonResource;

class AppServiceProvider extends ServiceProvider
{
    /**
     * Register any application services.
     */
    public function register(): void
    {
    }

    /**
     * Bootstrap any application services.
     */
    public function boot(): void
    {
        JsonResource::macro('paginationInformation', function ($request, $paginated, $default) {
            array_shift($default['meta']['links']);
            array_pop($default['meta']['links']);

            return $default;
        });
    }
}

I was wondering if there’s a best practice to do it – or a Laravel provided way to do it, like a built-in “removePrevNextLinks” or something.

Example response I get:

And basically, this is the goal:

So I still want to keep the links – except the “Previous” and “Next” ones.
But without messing with the service provider, using laravel-provided methods instead of customizations like the above.

I checked out other stack posts, but most of them removed the meta links completely, or other solutions that does not provide the desired response.
