Xcode 8。3. Swift;X或以上

do {
    // get the documents folder url
    if let documentDirectory = FileManager.default.urls(for: .documentDirectory, in: .userDomainMask).first {
        // create the destination url for the text file to be saved
        let fileURL = documentDirectory.appendingPathComponent("file.txt")
        // define the string/text to be saved
        let text = "Hello World !!!"
        // writing to disk 
        // Note: if you set atomically to true it will overwrite the file if it exists without a warning
        try text.write(to: fileURL, atomically: false, encoding: .utf8)
        print("saving was successful")
        // any posterior code goes here
        // reading from disk
        let savedText = try String(contentsOf: fileURL)
        print("savedText:", savedText)   // "Hello World !!!\n"
    }
} catch {
    print("error:", error)
}

目前从亚当上面接受的答案对我来说有一些错误，但这是我如何重做他的答案，使这个工作对我来说。

let file = "file.txt"

let dirs: [String]? = NSSearchPathForDirectoriesInDomains(NSSearchPathDirectory.DocumentDirectory, NSSearchPathDomainMask.AllDomainsMask, true) as? [String]

if (dirs != nil) {
    let directories:[String] = dirs!
    let dirs = directories[0]; //documents directory
    let path = dirs.stringByAppendingPathComponent(file);
    let text = "some text"

    //writing
    text.writeToFile(path, atomically: false, encoding: NSUTF8StringEncoding, error: nil);

    //reading
     var error:NSError?

    //reading
    let text2 = String(contentsOfFile: path, encoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding, error: &error)

    if let theError = error {
        print("\(theError.localizedDescription)")
    }
}

do {
    // get the documents folder url
    if let documentDirectory = FileManager.default.urls(for: .documentDirectory, in: .userDomainMask).first {
        // create the destination url for the text file to be saved
        let fileURL = documentDirectory.appendingPathComponent("file.txt")
        // define the string/text to be saved
        let text = "Hello World !!!"

        try text.write(to: fileURL, atomically: false, encoding: .utf8)
        print("saving was successful")
        // any posterior code goes here
        // reading from disk
        let savedText = try String(contentsOf: fileURL)

Xcode 8, Swift 3从应用程序包中读取文件的方法:

if let path = Bundle.main.path(forResource: filename, ofType: nil) {
    do {
        let text = try String(contentsOfFile: path, encoding: String.Encoding.utf8)
        print(text)
    } catch {
        printError("Failed to read text from \(filename)")
    }
} else {
    printError("Failed to load file from app bundle \(filename)")
} 

这是一个方便的复制和粘贴扩展

public extension String {
    func contentsOrBlank()->String {
        if let path = Bundle.main.path(forResource:self , ofType: nil) {
            do {
                let text = try String(contentsOfFile:path, encoding: String.Encoding.utf8)
                return text
                } catch { print("Failed to read text from bundle file \(self)") }
        } else { print("Failed to load file from bundle \(self)") }
        return ""
    }
    }

例如

let t = "yourFile.txt".contentsOrBlank()

你几乎总是想要一个行数组:

let r:[String] = "yourFile.txt"
     .contentsOrBlank()
     .characters
     .split(separator: "\n", omittingEmptySubsequences:ignore)
     .map(String.init)

Xcode 8.3.2 Swift 3.x。使用NSKeyedArchiver和NSKeyedUnarchiver

从文档中读取文件

let documentsDirectoryPathString = NSSearchPathForDirectoriesInDomains(.documentDirectory, .userDomainMask, true).first!
let documentsDirectoryPath = NSURL(string: documentsDirectoryPathString)!
let jsonFilePath = documentsDirectoryPath.appendingPathComponent("Filename.json")

let fileManager = FileManager.default
var isDirectory: ObjCBool = false

if fileManager.fileExists(atPath: (jsonFilePath?.absoluteString)!, isDirectory: &isDirectory) {

let finalDataDict = NSKeyedUnarchiver.unarchiveObject(withFile: (jsonFilePath?.absoluteString)!) as! [String: Any]
}
else{
     print("File does not exists")
}

将文件写入文档

NSKeyedArchiver.archiveRootObject(finalDataDict, toFile:(jsonFilePath?.absoluteString)!)

在Swift > 4.0中读取文件的最简单方法

 let path = Bundle.main.path(forResource: "data", ofType: "txt") // file path for file "data.txt"
        do {
            var text = try String(contentsOfFile: path!)
        }
        catch(_){print("error")}
    }
