Swift
First we need to have image's NSData
//Use image name from bundle to create NSData
let image : UIImage = UIImage(named:"imageNameHere")!
//Now use image to create into NSData format
let imageData:NSData = UIImagePNGRepresentation(image)!
//OR next possibility
//Use image's path to create NSData
let url:NSURL = NSURL(string : "urlHere")!
//Now use image to create into NSData format
let imageData:NSData = NSData.init(contentsOfURL: url)!
Swift 2.0 > Encoding
let strBase64:String = imageData.base64EncodedStringWithOptions(.Encoding64CharacterLineLength)
Swift 2.0 > Decoding
let dataDecoded:NSData = NSData(base64EncodedString: strBase64, options: NSDataBase64DecodingOptions.IgnoreUnknownCharacters)!
Encoding :
let strBase64 = imageData.base64EncodedStringWithOptions(.allZeros)
print(strBase64)
Decoding :
let dataDecoded:NSData = NSData(base64EncodedString: strBase64, options: NSDataBase64DecodingOptions(rawValue: 0))!
let decodedimage:UIImage = UIImage(data: dataDecoded)!
print(decodedimage)
yourImageView.image = decodedimage
Objective-C
iOS7 > version
You can use NSData's
base64EncodedStringWithOptions
Encoding :
- (NSString *)encodeToBase64String:(UIImage *)image {
return [UIImagePNGRepresentation(image) base64EncodedStringWithOptions:NSDataBase64Encoding64CharacterLineLength];
}
Decoding :
- (UIImage *)decodeBase64ToImage:(NSString *)strEncodeData {
NSData *data = [[NSData alloc]initWithBase64EncodedString:strEncodeData options:NSDataBase64DecodingIgnoreUnknownCharacters];
return [UIImage imageWithData:data];
}
iOS 6.1 and < version
First Option : Use this link to encode
and decode
image
Add Base64 class in your project
.
Encoding :
NSData* data = UIImageJPEGRepresentation(yourImage, 1.0f);
NSString *strEncoded = [Base64 encode:data];
Decoding :
NSData* data = [Base64 decode:strEncoded ];;
image.image = [UIImage imageWithData:data];
Another Option: Use QSUtilities for encoding
and decoding
