AWS have published that their AMI with PHP 7.2 has sodium (cryptography).

Plainly (as at writing) it does not. There is no package available. There is no solution.

Have attempted installing etc, but it is a long way around and messy.

Instead, there is an excellent PHP 7.2 Polyfill, from the orignal authors - right here: https://github.com/paragonie/sodium_compat

Here's how to install it:

<script type="text/javascript">

    (function(){

        // These are <<functions>> exposed on the object as properties.
        var _publics = {
            globals       : _globals
        };

Sometimes some websites require https to work. This can be useful in those cases.

This has been tested with XAMPP (PHP 7.0.8) on Windows 7. Please see the Reference links at the end if in confusion about some step.
