swift 4 firebase GeoPoint decode

I was wondering if it is possible to encode and decode a GeoPoint from the firebase's JSON response using standard swift 4?

It looks like as of now that the GeoPoint is not Codable?

I get the following error

No 'decode' candidates produce the expected contextual result type 'GeoPoint'

in my Codable class

final class Data: Codable
{
  var location:GeoPoint = GeoPoint(latitude:0,longitude:0)

  private enum CodingKeys: String, CodingKey
  {
    case geoloc
  }

  init(from decoder: Decoder) throws
  {
    let values = try decoder.container(keyedBy: CodingKeys.self)

    do
    {
      located = try values.decode(Location.self, forKey: .geoloc) //error here
    }
    catch
    {
      print("data has location in server response\n")
    }

  }

  func encode(to encoder: Encoder) throws
  {
    var container = encoder.container(keyedBy: CodingKeys.self)
    try container.encode(location, forKey: .geoloc)

  }
}

I was able to extend the GeoPoint class and make it Codable. That is how I solved it.

import UIKit

final class MyGeoPoint: GeoPoint, Codable
{
  override init(latitude: Double, longitude: Double)
  {
    super.init(latitude: latitude, longitude: longitude)
  }

  private enum CodingKeys: String, CodingKey
  {
    case latitude  = "_latitude"
    case longitude = "_longitude"
  }

  init(from decoder: Decoder) throws
  {
    let container = try decoder.container(keyedBy: CodingKeys.self)
    var lat:Double   = 0
    var lon:Double  = 0

    do
    {
      lat = try container.decode(Double.self, forKey: .latitude)
    }
    catch
    {
      print("no latitude for MyGeoPoint")
    }

    do
    {
      lon = try container.decode(Double.self, forKey: .longitude)
    }
    catch
    {
      print("no longitude for MyGeoPoint")
    }


    super.init(latitude: lat, longitude: lon)
  }

  func encode(to encoder: Encoder) throws
  {
    var container = encoder.container(keyedBy: CodingKeys.self)
    try container.encode(latitude,  forKey: .latitude)
    try container.encode(longitude, forKey: .longitude)
  }

}

Now I can use my original Data class to consume the JSON response from Google, using my extended MyGeoPoint class (instead of Google's GeoPoint directly)

final class Data: Codable
{
  var location:MyGeoPoint = MyGeoPoint(latitude:0,longitude:0)
  private enum CodingKeys: String, CodingKey
  {
    case geoloc
  }
  init(from decoder: Decoder) throws
  {
    let values = try decoder.container(keyedBy: CodingKeys.self)

    do
    {
      //no error here anymore
      location = try values.decode(MyGeoPoint.self, forKey: .geoloc) 
    }
    catch
    {
      print("data has location in server response\n")
    }

  }

  func encode(to encoder: Encoder) throws
  {
    var container = encoder.container(keyedBy: CodingKeys.self)
    try container.encode(location, forKey: .geoloc)

  }
}
