嗨，这可能有点晚，但值得一试。这是一个游乐场的文件。你可以让它成为一个字符串扩展名。

这是在Swift 5.3中编写的

方法1:

var str = "\n \tHello, playground       "
if let regexp = try? NSRegularExpression(pattern: "^\\s+", options: NSRegularExpression.Options.caseInsensitive) {
    let mstr = NSMutableString(string: str)
    regexp.replaceMatches(in: mstr, options: [], range: NSRange(location: 0, length: str.count), withTemplate: "")
    str = mstr as String
}

Result: "Hello, playground       "

方法2:

if let c = (str.first { !($0 == " " || $0 == "\t" || $0 == "\n") }) {
    if let nonWhiteSpaceIndex = str.firstIndex(of: c) {
        str.replaceSubrange(str.startIndex ..< nonWhiteSpaceIndex, with: "")
    }
}

Result: "Hello, playground       "

另一个答案是，有时输入字符串在单词之间可以包含多个空格。如果你需要标准化，单词之间只有一个空格，试试这个(Swift 4/5)

let inputString = "  a very     strange   text !    "
let validInput = inputString.components(separatedBy:.whitespacesAndNewlines).filter { $0.count > 0 }.joined(separator: " ")

print(validInput) // "a very strange text !"

我会使用这个扩展，以灵活和模仿其他集合如何做到这一点:

extension String {
    func filter(pred: Character -> Bool) -> String {
        var res = String()
        for c in self.characters {
            if pred(c) {
                res.append(c)
            }
        }
        return res
    }
}

"this is a String".filter { $0 != Character(" ") } // "thisisaString"

删除开头和结尾的空格:

let trimmedString = string.stringByTrimmingCharactersInSet(NSCharacterSet.whitespaceCharacterSet())

Swift 3 / Swift 4:

let trimmedString = string.trimmingCharacters(in: .whitespaces)

extension String {

    var removingWhitespaceAndNewLines: String {
        return removing(.whitespacesAndNewlines)
    }

    func removing(_ forbiddenCharacters: CharacterSet) -> String {
        return String(unicodeScalars.filter({ !forbiddenCharacters.contains($0) }))
    }
}

如果你想要从前面(和后面)而不是中间删除空格，你应该使用stringByTrimmingCharactersInSet

    let dirtyString   = " First Word "
    let cleanString = dirtyString.stringByTrimmingCharactersInSet(NSCharacterSet.whitespaceCharacterSet())

如果你想从字符串的任何地方删除空格，那么你可能需要查看stringbyreplacement…
