## 🐞 Examples

```php

// ++++++++++++++++++ hasMetadata ++++++++++++++++++
$model->hasMetadata();
/** Returns true if metadata record exists, false otherwise */


// ++++++++++++++++++ hasFilledMetadata ++++++++++++++++++
$model->hasFilledMetadata();
/** 
* Returns true if metadata exists and is not empty
* Returns false if:
*  - No metadata record exists
*  - Metadata exists but is null
*  - Metadata exists but is an empty array/collection
*/


// ++++++++++++++++++ hasKeyMetadata ++++++++++++++++++
$model->hasKeyMetadata('name');
$model->hasKeyMetadata(7);
$model->hasKeyMetadata(null); // returns false
/** Returns true if the key exists in metadata */


// ++++++++++++++++++ hasAllKeysMetadata ++++++++++++++++++
$model->hasAllKeysMetadata(['name', 'age']); // true if BOTH keys exist
$model->hasAllKeysMetadata(collect(['name', 'age'])); // accepts Collection
$model->hasAllKeysMetadata('name'); // true if 'name' exists
$model->hasAllKeysMetadata(8); // check list array
$model->hasAllKeysMetadata([5, 6]);
$model->hasAllKeysMetadata(null); // returns false


// ++++++++++++++++++ hasAnyKeysMetadata ++++++++++++++++++
$model->hasAnyKeysMetadata(['name', 'age']); // true if Any keys exist
$model->hasAnyKeysMetadata(collect(['name', 'age'])); // accepts Collection
$model->hasAnyKeysMetadata('name'); // true if 'name' exists
$model->hasAnyKeysMetadata(8); // check list array
$model->hasAnyKeysMetadata([5, 6]);
$model->hasAnyKeysMetadata(null); // returns false

```
