How do I check if a string contains another string in Swift?

Question

In Objective-C the code to check for a substring in an NSString is:

NSString *string = @\"hello Swift\";
NSRange textRange =[strin         


        

Answer 1

Another one. Supports case and diacritic options.

Swift 3.0

struct MyString {
  static func contains(_ text: String, substring: String,
                       ignoreCase: Bool = true,
                       ignoreDiacritic: Bool = true) -> Bool {

    var options = NSString.CompareOptions()

    if ignoreCase { _ = options.insert(NSString.CompareOptions.caseInsensitive) }
    if ignoreDiacritic { _ = options.insert(NSString.CompareOptions.diacriticInsensitive) }

    return text.range(of: substring, options: options) != nil
  }
}

Usage

MyString.contains("Niels Bohr", substring: "Bohr") // true

iOS 9+

Case and diacritic insensitive function available since iOS 9.

if #available(iOS 9.0, *) {
  "Für Elise".localizedStandardContains("fur") // true
}
