How do I decode HTML entities in Swift?

Question

I am pulling a JSON file from a site and one of the strings received is:

The Weeknd ‘King Of The Fall&         


        

Answer 1

Swift 4.1 +

var htmlDecoded: String {


    let attributedOptions: [NSAttributedString.DocumentReadingOptionKey : Any] = [

        NSAttributedString.DocumentReadingOptionKey.documentType : NSAttributedString.DocumentType.html,
        NSAttributedString.DocumentReadingOptionKey.characterEncoding : String.Encoding.utf8.rawValue
    ]


    let decoded = try? NSAttributedString(data: Data(utf8), options: attributedOptions
        , documentAttributes: nil).string

    return decoded ?? self
}
