Transformers not working with pagination?

Hello

I was using an older version of dingo (months ago) and this would be run through the transformer and properly return only the values I want returned.

`return $this->response->paginator($companies, new CompanyTransformer);`

But now, when I run this in my new project, it seems to completely ignore what I have in my transform function and returns all the values from the database.

This, tho, DOES return the appropriate fields that I selected

`$this->response->item($company, new CompanyTransformer)`

I've spent several hours trying to narrow down what it is with no luck, documentation says it should work. I also tried connecting to slack but won't let me join without an invite :(

Edit:
Seems I reverted back to the version I was using months ago and still all the values from the database are being returned. Perhaps it's another issue if anyone can lend a hand!...
