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
    }
}

将图像转换为base64字符串

操场测试

    var logo = UIImage(named: "image_logo")
    let imageData:Data =  UIImagePNGRepresentation(logo)
    let base64String = imageData.base64EncodedString()
    print(base64String)

See my class -  AppExtension.swift


// MARK: - UIImage (Base64 Encoding)

public enum ImageFormat {
    case PNG
    case JPEG(CGFloat)
}

extension UIImage {

    public func base64(format: ImageFormat) -> String {
        var imageData: NSData
        switch format {
        case .PNG: imageData = UIImagePNGRepresentation(self)
        case .JPEG(let compression): imageData = UIImageJPEGRepresentation(self, compression)
        }
        return imageData.base64EncodedStringWithOptions(.allZeros)
    }
}
