Plist是一个简单的Swift枚举，用于处理属性列表。

// load an applications info.plist data

let info = Plist(NSBundle.mainBundle().infoDictionary)
let identifier = info["CFBundleIndentifier"].string!

更多的例子:

import Plist

// initialize using an NSDictionary
// and retrieve keyed values

let info = Plist(dict)
let name = info["name"].string ?? ""
let age = info["age"].int ?? 0


// initialize using an NSArray
// and retrieve indexed values

let info = Plist(array)
let itemAtIndex0 = info[0].value


// utility initiaizer to load a plist file at specified path
let info = Plist(path: "path_to_plist_file")

// we support index chaining - you can get to a dictionary from an array via
// a dictionary and so on
// don't worry, the following will not fail with errors in case
// the index path is invalid
if let complicatedAccessOfSomeStringValueOfInterest = info["dictKey"][10]["anotherKey"].string {
  // do something
}
else {
  // data cannot be indexed
}

// you can also re-use parts of a plist data structure

let info = Plist(...)
let firstSection = info["Sections"][0]["SectionData"]
let sectionKey = firstSection["key"].string!
let sectionSecret = firstSection["secret"].int!

Swift -读写plist和文本文件....

override func viewDidLoad() {
    super.viewDidLoad()

    let fileManager = (NSFileManager .defaultManager())
    let directorys : [String]? = NSSearchPathForDirectoriesInDomains(NSSearchPathDirectory.DocumentDirectory,NSSearchPathDomainMask.AllDomainsMask, true) as? [String]

    if (directorys != nil){
        let directories:[String] = directorys!;
        let dictionary = directories[0]; //documents directory


        //  Create and insert the data into the Plist file  ....
        let plistfile = "myPlist.plist"
        var myDictionary: NSMutableDictionary = ["Content": "This is a sample Plist file ........."]
        let plistpath = dictionary.stringByAppendingPathComponent(plistfile);

        if !fileManager .fileExistsAtPath(plistpath){//writing Plist file
            myDictionary.writeToFile(plistpath, atomically: false)
        }
        else{            //Reading Plist file
            println("Plist file found")

            let resultDictionary = NSMutableDictionary(contentsOfFile: plistpath)
            println(resultDictionary?.description)
        }


        //  Create and insert the data into the Text file  ....
        let textfile = "myText.txt"
        let sampleText = "This is a sample text file ......... "

        let textpath = dictionary.stringByAppendingPathComponent(textfile);
        if !fileManager .fileExistsAtPath(textpath){//writing text file
            sampleText.writeToFile(textpath, atomically: false, encoding: NSUTF8StringEncoding, error: nil);
        } else{
            //Reading text file
            let reulttext  = String(contentsOfFile: textpath, encoding: NSUTF8StringEncoding, error: nil)
            println(reulttext)
        }
    }
    else {
        println("directory is empty")
    }
}

这个答案使用Swift本机对象而不是NSDictionary。

//load the plist as data in memory

现在可以使用decodedable协议将.plist解码为自定义结构。我将介绍一个基本的例子，对于更复杂的。plist结构，我建议阅读Decodable/Encodable(一个很好的资源是:https://benscheirman.com/2017/06/swift-json/)。

首先将结构设置为.plist文件的格式。对于这个例子，我将考虑一个根级字典和3个条目:1个字符串键“name”，1个Int键“age”，1个布尔键“single”。下面是结构体:

struct Config: Decodable {
    private enum CodingKeys: String, CodingKey {
        case name, age, single
    }

    let name: String
    let age: Int
    let single: Bool
}

很简单。现在是最酷的部分。使用PropertyListDecoder类，我们可以很容易地将.plist文件解析为这个结构体的实例化:

func parseConfig() -> Config {
    let url = Bundle.main.url(forResource: "Config", withExtension: "plist")!
    let data = try! Data(contentsOf: url)
    let decoder = PropertyListDecoder()
    return try! decoder.decode(Config.self, from: data)
}

不用担心太多代码，而且都在Swift中。更好的是，我们现在有一个Config结构的实例化，我们可以很容易地使用:

let config = parseConfig()
print(config.name) 
print(config.age)
print(config.single) 

打印。plist中“name”、“age”和“single”键的值。

我已经创建了一个简单的字典初始化器替换NSDictionary(contentsOfFile: path)。只要去掉NS。

extension Dictionary where Key == String, Value == Any {

    public init?(contentsOfFile path: String) {
        let url = URL(fileURLWithPath: path)

        self.init(contentsOfURL: url)
    }

    public init?(contentsOfURL url: URL) {
        guard let data = try? Data(contentsOf: url),
            let dictionary = (try? PropertyListSerialization.propertyList(from: data, options: [], format: nil) as? [String: Any]) ?? nil
            else { return nil }

        self = dictionary
    }

}

你可以这样使用它:

let filePath = Bundle.main.path(forResource: "Preferences", ofType: "plist")!
let preferences = Dictionary(contentsOfFile: filePath)!
UserDefaults.standard.register(defaults: preferences)

我使用swift字典，但在我的文件管理器类中转换它们和nsdictionary，如下所示:

    func writePlist(fileName:String, myDict:Dictionary<String, AnyObject>){
        let docsDir:String = dirPaths[0] as String
        let docPath = docsDir + "/" + fileName
        let thisDict = myDict as NSDictionary
        if(thisDict.writeToFile(docPath, atomically: true)){
            NSLog("success")
        } else {
            NSLog("failure")
        }

    }
    func getPlist(fileName:String)->Dictionary<String, AnyObject>{
        let docsDir:String = dirPaths[0] as String
        let docPath = docsDir + "/" + fileName
        let thisDict = NSDictionary(contentsOfFile: docPath)
        return thisDict! as! Dictionary<String, AnyObject>
    }

这似乎是最不麻烦的读写方式，但让我的其余代码保持尽可能快。
