🔥 Consider adding support for custom Context about fiber HOT 6 CLOSED

Hey @cgiacomi, many web frameworks use the Context feature WithValue & Value to extend the Ctx. Fiber is really flexible and has a method called Locals (pass data between middlewares) which basically does the same. Let me show you an example:

package main

import "github.com/gofiber/fiber"

func main() {
  app := fiber.New()
  app.Post(Valiware())
  app.Post("/register", func(c *fiber.Ctx) {
    body := c.Locals("validator")
  })
  app.Listen(3000)
}

func Valiware() func(*fiber.Ctx) {
  // initiate your validator once
  vali := validator.New()
  return func(c *fiber.Ctx) {
    parsed, err := vali(c.Body())
    if err == nil {
      c.Locals("validator", parsed)
    }
    c.Next()
  }
}

This is just a basic example, you can implement your validator logic in a 1000 ways.

@Fenny tnx and sorry for the late reply, I saw the Locals method, but wasn't sure what the intended use was. I will try to see how it works out with that.

By the way great work with the framework... I usually use Echo, but looking at Fiber it feels more like what I like. Again tnx for the great work!
