@implementation UIImage (Extended)

- (NSString *)base64String {

    return [NSString stringWithUTF8String:[data bytes]];
}

我尝试了所有的解决方案，没有一个对我有效(使用Swift 4)，这是对我有效的解决方案，如果将来有人面临同样的问题。

let temp = base64String.components(separatedBy: ",")
let dataDecoded : Data = Data(base64Encoded: temp[1], options: 
 .ignoreUnknownCharacters)!
let decodedimage = UIImage(data: dataDecoded)

yourImage.image = decodedimage

在swift 2.0中使用此扩展(credit to Jonas Franz)

extension UIImage{
  func toBase64() -> String{
    let imageData = UIImagePNGRepresentation(self)!
    return imageData.base64EncodedStringWithOptions(.Encoding64CharacterLineLength)
  }
}

很好理解你是否传递了Tyler Sheaffer所说的前缀。 但出于某种原因，你可能需要这个前缀来描述base64字符串开头的mime类型，所以我建议这段代码在编码之前传递一些选项(Swift 5):

extension UIImage {

    enum Format: String {
        case png = "png"
        case jpeg = "jpeg"
    }

    func toBase64(type: Format = .jpeg, quality: CGFloat = 1, addMimePrefix: Bool = false) -> String? {
        let imageData: Data?
        switch type {
        case .jpeg: imageData = jpegData(compressionQuality: quality)
        case .png:  imageData = pngData()
        }
        guard let data = imageData else { return nil }

        let base64 = data.base64EncodedString(options: Data.Base64EncodingOptions.lineLength64Characters)

        var result = base64
        if addMimePrefix {
            let prefix = "data:image/\(type.rawValue);base64,"
            result = prefix + base64
        }
        return result
    }
}

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
}
