[Feature Request]: Handle `Locale` in `Decodable`
MasterJ93 opened this issue · comments
Summary
KeyedDecodingContainer will need to be extended to support Locale.
Pain points
As it stands, Locale has trouble being decoded. If doing so directly, then a decoding error is thrown.
As a solution, we need methods that will handle the translation for us.
The solution is to extend KeyedDecodingContainer with the following:
encodeLocale()encodeLocaleIfPresent()
This will function similarly with truncatedEncode[IfPresent]().
Considered Alternatives
We could write the code like this in a custom decoding method:
let string = try container.decode(String.self, forKey: .lang)
self.lang = Locale(identifier: str)However, this looks ugly. A one-lined solution is better.
Is this a breaking change?
