Ecoji-Swift

A Swift 5 implementation of the Ecoji encoding standard.

Provides a library for encoding and decoding data as a base-1024 sequence of emojis

Usage

Works a lot like a JSONEncoder/Decoder

Encoding

Encode is implemented for Data or String inputs

import Ecoji
let encoder = EcojiEncoder()
let emojiString = encoder.encode(from: "Hello World!")
print(emojiString)
// "🏯🔩🚗🌷🍉👇🦒🕊👡📢☕☕"

Decoding

You can decode into Data like this:

let decoder = EcojiDecoder()
do {
  let data = try decoder.decode(string: "🏯🔩🚗🌷🍉👇🦒🕊👡📢☕☕"
  print(data)
  // "12 bytes"
} catch let err as DecodingError {
  print(err)
}

Theres also a convenience method for reconstruction utf strings from the data:

let decoder = EcojiDecoder()
do {
  let data = try decoder.decodeToString(string: "🏯🔩🚗🌷🍉👇🦒🕊👡📢☕☕"
  print(data)
  // "Hello World!"
} catch let err as DecodingError {
  print(err)
}

TODO:

• Decode/Encode
• Tests
• Linux compatibility
• swift package manager
• cocoa pod
