Hi @rolandihms, yes I believe the docs are still being updated for v3. c.BodyParser() was removed in v3 in favor of moving implementation details for binding payloads to a struct and related tasks into a new *fiber.Bind struct located at fiber/bind.go. You can get a pointer to this struct by using the c.Bind() defined in fiber/ctx_interface.go.

To upgrade your code snippet to use the new c.Bind() method, it would look like this:

package main

import (
    "github.com/gofiber/fiber/v3"
    "log"
)

type payload struct {
    Html string `json:"html"`
}

func main() {
    app := fiber.New()
    app.Post("/html", func(c fiber.Ctx) error {
        body := new(payload)
        if err := c.Bind().JSON(body); err != nil {
	    return err
	}
	log.Println("html", body.Html)
	return c.Send(c.Body())
    })
    log.Fatal(app.Listen(":3000"))
}

Also, did you mean to use return c.Send(body) instead of return c.Send(c.Body())? Sending c.Body() wouldn't require using c.Bind().JSON() within the POST /html handler in this example.

I hope this is helpful!
