These are the functions which are planned for 5.0. As was pointed out
elsewhere, since 5.0 is not yet released it's possible something could
come up that precludes releasing them.
xdmp:hmac-md5()
xdmp:hmac-sha1()
xdmp:hmac-sha256()
xdmp:hmac-sha512()
xdmp:md5()
xdmp:sha1()
xdmp:sha256()
xdmp:sha512()

Can we get the SHA-2 functions as well? (SHA-256 and SHA-512 at least.)
Thanks.

I stand corrected.
I've just been reminded that some new crypto builtins are coming in
5.0, including xdmp:hmac-sha1.

AWS computes signatures based on the encoded data, which I believe to
be the result of signature checking being in the wrong layer of the
service architecture. As a result they are sensitive to differences
in hex digit capitalization, and to the precise set of reserved
characters, which is not universally standardized. Because
xdmp:url-encode does not conform to their specifications, and may be
subject to change, a new version was added to ensure compatibility.
I'm sorry to say there's no xdmp:hmac-sha1. One of the benefits of
adding undocumented functions to support specific features is a
reduction in the cost of testing, documentation, and
completeness. There has been discussion in the past of including a
full suite of public crypto functions, wrapping more of what's already
present in the OpenSSL library, but I don't believe there's a plan to
do that at this time. Add your voice to the RFE process if you crave
this functionality.

Hi,
Browsing through the MarkLogic built-in Modules in search for some
modules I knew must be there, my eye was caught by the EC2 and AWS
modules. Scanning through them I noticed the use of the following
undocumented functions:
- xdmp:aws-url-encode
- xdmp:hmac-sha256
Can anyone explain in which way xdmp:aws-url-encode differs from
xdmp:url-encode. And since there is an hmac-sha256 function, is there
a hmac-sha1 function as well?
Kind regards,
Geert
