🚀 New

• Add support for configuring the Regex engine on the router (#4254) Swap the compiler used for regex() route constraints. Assign a drop-in engine such as coregex.MustCompile for faster matching;Fiber reuses the compiled matcher across requests. app := fiber.New(fiber.Config{ RegexHandler: coregex.MustCompile, // default: regexp.MustCompile }) https://docs.gofiber.io/api/fiber#regexhandler
• Host auth middleware (#4199) New hostauthorization middleware that validates the incoming Host header against an allowlist (exact host, .subdomain wildcard, CIDR range) to protect against DNS rebinding attacks. app.Use(hostauthorization.New(hostauthorization.Config{ AllowedHosts: []string{"api.myapp.com", ".myapp.com", "10.0.0.0/8"}, })) https://docs.gofiber.io/middleware/hostauthorization
• Delegate implementation to fasthttp/prefork (#4210) Prefork now delegates to fasthttp's prefork package and adds PreforkRecoverThreshold (max child restarts before the master exits) and PreforkLogger to ListenConfig. https://docs.gofiber.io/api/fiber#preforkrecoverthreshold
• Add support for contextual logs (#4241) Render request-scoped fields in log.WithContext(c) by configuring a template with log.SetContextTemplate, reusing the middleware/logger engine (including ${value:key} for arbitrary context values). log.MustSetContextTemplate(log.ContextConfig{Format: log.RequestIDFormat}) app.Get("/", func(c fiber.Ctx) error { log.WithContext(c).Info("start") // renders the request id return c.SendString("ok") }) https://docs.gofiber.io/api/log#bind-context
• Add storage backed SharedState for prefork applications (#4243) A prefork-safe, storage-backed key/value store via app.SharedState() for data shared across workers/processes, with JSON/MsgPack/CBOR/XML helpers and automatic key namespacing. app.State() stays process-local. app := fiber.New(fiber.Config{ SharedStorage: redis.New(), // any fiber.Storage shared across workers }) app.SharedState().SetJSON("config", cfg, 0) https://docs.gofiber.io/api/state#sharedstate-prefork-safe
• Add lightweight SSE middleware (#4239) A Fiber-native middleware/sse for Server-Sent Events: SSE headers, event/comment/retry frames, per-write flushing, heartbeats, Last-Event-ID access, and disconnect detection via stream.Context(). app.Get("/events", sse.New(sse.Config{ Handler: func(c fiber.Ctx, stream *sse.Stream) error { return stream.Event(sse.Event{Name: "message", Data: fiber.Map{"message": "hello"}}) }, })) https://docs.gofiber.io/middleware/sse
