This function allows you to override values returned from Tomatoes. |
Extend output function
This function can be used to change the data output of this actor. It takes a JQuery handle $ as an argument and it should return data that will be merged with the default output. This function allows you to override values returned from Tomatoes. Returning {} will skip the default output and only data returned from this function will be added.

1async ($) => { 2 return { 3 actor: 'Tom Cruise', 4 }; 5};
