斯威夫特5。

class ImageConverter {

    func base64ToImage(_ base64String: String) -> UIImage? {
        guard let imageData = Data(base64Encoded: base64String) else { return nil }
        return UIImage(data: imageData)
    }

    func imageToBase64(_ image: UIImage) -> String? {
        return image.jpegData(compressionQuality: 1)?.base64EncodedString()
    }

}

@implementation UIImage (Extended)

- (NSString *)base64String {
    NSData * data = [UIImagePNGRepresentation(self) base64EncodedDataWithOptions:NSDataBase64Encoding64CharacterLineLength];
    return [NSString stringWithUTF8String:[data bytes]];
}

@end

在Swift 3.0中

func decodeBase64(toImage strEncodeData: String) -> UIImage {

    let dataDecoded  = NSData(base64Encoded: strEncodeData, options: NSData.Base64DecodingOptions.ignoreUnknownCharacters)!
    let image = UIImage(data: dataDecoded as Data)
    return image!

}

Swift版本-创建base64镜像

在我看来，在UIImagePNGRepresenatation()的情况下隐式Unwrapped Optional是不安全的，所以我建议使用扩展如下:

extension UIImage {

    func toBase64() -> String? {
        let imageData = UIImagePNGRepresentation(self)
        return imageData?.base64EncodedStringWithOptions(NSDataBase64EncodingOptions.Encoding64CharacterLineLength)
    }
}

编码

func convertImageToBase64String (img: UIImage) -> String {
    return img.jpegData(compressionQuality: 1)?.base64EncodedString() ?? ""
}

解码

func convertBase64StringToImage (imageBase64String:String) -> UIImage {
    let imageData = Data(base64Encoded: imageBase64String)
    let image = UIImage(data: imageData!)
    return image!
}

注意:在xcode 10.2中测试

编码

func convertImageToBase64String (img: UIImage) -> String {
    let imageData:NSData = UIImageJPEGRepresentation(img, 0.50)! as NSData //UIImagePNGRepresentation(img)
    let imgString = imageData.base64EncodedString(options: .init(rawValue: 0))
    return imgString
}

解码

func convertBase64StringToImage (imageBase64String:String) -> UIImage {
    let imageData = Data.init(base64Encoded: imageBase64String, options: .init(rawValue: 0))
    let image = UIImage(data: imageData!)
    return image
}

注意:在xcode 9.4.1中测试

解码使用方便的初始化器- Swift 5

extension UIImage {
    convenience init?(base64String: String) {
        guard let data = Data(base64Encoded: base64String) else { return nil }
        self.init(data: data)
    }
}
