Rest API encoding of double quotes

I’ll show here an example of how you can convert the HTML to Plain Text in Swift 4.

This example simulate that you’re receiving this:

WordPress&#8216House –> WordPress’House

1. Add this extension to convert your html code to a regular string:

`

extension Data {
    var html2AttributedString: NSAttributedString? {
        do {
            return try NSAttributedString(data: self, options: [.documentType: NSAttributedString.DocumentType.html, .characterEncoding: String.Encoding.utf8.rawValue], documentAttributes: nil)
        } catch {
            print("error:", error)
            return  nil
        }
    }
    var html2String: String {
        return html2AttributedString?.string ?? ""
    }
}

extension String {
    var html2AttributedString: NSAttributedString? {
        return Data(utf8).html2AttributedString
    }
    var html2String: String {
        return html2AttributedString?.string ?? ""
    }
}

2. Use the extension

`

let htmlString = "WordPress&#8216House"

print("String is: ", textFromWP.html2String)
