我对这个问题的更快速的回答是:

func randomAlphanumericString(length: Int) -> String {

    let letters = "abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ0123456789".characters
    let lettersLength = UInt32(letters.count)

    let randomCharacters = (0..<length).map { i -> String in
        let offset = Int(arc4random_uniform(lettersLength))
        let c = letters[letters.startIndex.advancedBy(offset)]
        return String(c)
    }

    return randomCharacters.joinWithSeparator("")
}

在Swift 4.2中，你最好的方法是创建一个包含你想要的字符的字符串，然后使用randomElement来选择每个字符:

let length = 32
let characters = "abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ0123456789"
let randomCharacters = (0..<length).map{_ in characters.randomElement()!}
let randomString = String(randomCharacters)

我将在这里详细介绍这些变化。

        let c = letters[letters.startIndex.advancedBy(offset)]
        return String(c)
    }

    return randomCharacters.joinWithSeparator("")
}

简单快捷——UUID().uuidString

//返回由UUID创建的字符串，例如"E621E1F8-C36C-495A-93FC-0C247A3E6E5F" uuidString:字符串{get} https://developer.apple.com/documentation/foundation/uuid

斯威夫特3.0

let randomString = UUID().uuidString //0548CD07-7E2B-412B-AD69-5B2364644433
print(randomString.replacingOccurrences(of: "-", with: ""))
//0548CD077E2B412BAD695B2364644433

EDIT

请不要与UIDevice.current.identifierForVendor混淆。uuidString它不会给出随机值。

SwifterSwift有这个实现

/// SwifterSwift: Create a new random string of given length.
///
///     String(randomOfLength: 10) -> "gY8r3MHvlQ"
///
/// - Parameter length: number of characters in string.
init(randomOfLength length: Int) {
    guard length > 0 else {
        self.init()
        return
    }

    let base = "abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ0123456789"
    var randomString = ""
    for _ in 1...length {
        randomString.append(base.randomElement()!)
    }
    self = randomString
}

我做了一些改变，并使用这个实现

static func random(randomOfLength length: Int) -> String {
    guard length > 0 else { return "" }
    let base = "abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ0123456789"
    var randomString = ""
    for _ in 1...length {
        guard let randomCharacter = base.randomElement() else { continue }
        randomString.append(randomCharacter)
    }
    return randomString
}

func randomUIDString(_ wlength: Int) -> String {

    let letters : NSString = "abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ0123456789"
    var randomString = ""

    for _ in 0 ..< wlength {
        let length = UInt32 (letters.length)
        let rand = arc4random_uniform(length)
        randomString = randomString.appendingFormat("%C", letters.character(at: Int(rand)));
    }

    return randomString
}
