PunycodeSwift

PunycodeSwift is a pure Swift library to allows you to encode and decode punycoded strings by using String extension.

What is Punycode?

Punycode is a representation of Unicode with the limited ASCII character subset used for Internet host names. Using Punycode, host names containing Unicode characters are transcoded to a subset of ASCII consisting of letters, digits, and hyphen, which is called the Letter-Digit-Hyphen (LDH) subset. For example, München (German name for Munich) is encoded as Mnchen-3ya. (Wikipedia)

Requirements

iOS 9.3 or later
macOS 10.12 or later
tvOS 10.2 or later
Swift 4.2 or later

Installation

Carthage

Add the following to your Cartfile and follow these instructions.

github "gumob/PunycodeSwift"          # Latest (Swift 5.0)
github "gumob/PunycodeSwift" ~> 2.0   # Swift 5.0
github "gumob/PunycodeSwift" ~> 1.0   # Swift 4.2

CocoaPods

To integrate Punycode into your project, add the following to your Podfile.

platform :ios, '9.3'
use_frameworks!

pod 'Punycode'             # Latest (Swift 5.0)
pod 'Punycode', '~> 2.0'   # Swift 5.0
pod 'Punycode', '~> 1.0'   # Swift 4.2

Usage

Encode and decode IDNA:

import Punycode

var sushi: String = "寿司"

sushi = sushi.idnaEncoded!
print(sushi)  // xn--sprr0q

sushi = sushi.idnaDecoded!
print(sushi)  // "寿司"

Encode and decode Punycode directly:

import Punycode

var sushi: String = "寿司"

sushi = sushi.punycodeEncoded!
print(sushi)  // sprr0q

sushi = sushi.punycodeDecoded!
print(sushi)  // "寿司"
