Use Laravel Fractal (https://github.com/spatie/laravel-fractal) to transform data, but produce standard Laravel Pagination formatted result. This keeps compatibility with existing Vue components designed for Laravel (e.g. https://github.com/gilbitron/laravel-vue-pagination)

fractalPaginate.php

// copy'n'paste to use, e.g. into your support.php file

if (! function_exists('fractalPaginate')) {
    function fractalPaginate($query, $transformer, $size = 10) {
        $paginator = $query->paginate($size);
        return [
            'total'=> $paginator->total(),
            'count' => $paginator->count(),
            'per_page'=> $paginator->perPage(),
            'current_page'=> $paginator->currentPage(),
            'last_page'=> $paginator->lastPage(),
            'first_page_url'=> $paginator->url(1),
            'last_page_url'=> $paginator->url($paginator->lastPage()),
            'next_page_url'=> $paginator->nextPageUrl(),
            'prev_page_url'=> $paginator->previousPageUrl(),
            'path'=> url()->current(),
            'from'=> $paginator->firstItem(),
            'to'=> $paginator->lastItem(),
            'has_more_pages' => $paginator->hasMorePages(),
            'data' => fractal($paginator->getCollection(), $transformer),
        ];
    }
}
