// prgm mark ---- 

// convert images into base64 and keep them into string

func convertImageToBase64(image: UIImage) -> String {

    var imageData = UIImagePNGRepresentation(image)
    let base64String = imageData.base64EncodedStringWithOptions(.allZeros)

    return base64String

}// end convertImageToBase64


// prgm mark ----

// convert images into base64 and keep them into string

func convertBase64ToImage(base64String: String) -> UIImage {

    let decodedData = NSData(base64EncodedString: base64String, options: NSDataBase64DecodingOptions(rawValue: 0) )

    var decodedimage = UIImage(data: decodedData!)

    return decodedimage!

}// end convertBase64ToImage

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)
    }
}

4.2扩展方法

extension UIImage {
    func toBase64() -> String? {
        guard let imageData = self.pngData() else { return nil }
        return imageData.base64EncodedString(options: .lineLength64Characters)
    }
}

XCode 9.1和Swift 4.0

//
// Convert UIImage to a base64 representation
//
class func convertImageToBase64(image: UIImage) -> String {
    let imageData = UIImagePNGRepresentation(image)!
    return imageData.base64EncodedString(options: Data.Base64EncodingOptions.lineLength64Characters)
}

//
// Convert a base64 representation to a UIImage
//
class func convertBase64ToImage(imageString: String) -> UIImage {
    let imageData = Data(base64Encoded: imageString, options: Data.Base64DecodingOptions.ignoreUnknownCharacters)!
    return UIImage(data: imageData)!
}

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)
    }
} 

斯威夫特5号，Xcode 10号。

let imageData = UIImage（named：“imagename”）.pngData（）？.base64EncodedString（选项： .lineLength64Characters） 打印（图像数据）

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)
  }
}
