Hi everyone, I've updated the RFC to make libsodium a core PHP extension in 7.1, to include references to the online documentation. https://wiki.php.net/rfc/libsodium All new functions and classes would exist in the Sodium namespace. e.g. $ciphertext = \Sodium\crypto_box($message, $nonce, $keypair); This is part of an overall effort to improve PHP's cryptography; up next will be the pluggable crypto API that supports multiple backends (with a scope limited to openssl and libsodium at the time of release) but always provide conservative defaults. Then I'd like to look at deprecating ext/mcrypt back to PECL and add more hash functions to ext/hash.
