sodium_get_key() retrieves the key. It returns NULL if no key has been set.

sodium_get_key_or_ask() retrieves the key. If no key has been set and the session is interactive, the user is prompted for the key.

cache_sodium_key() can be used to set the sodium key if key is provided. Otherwise it is retrieved. This matches the cache-style accessors.
