Swift 4:结合Sulthan和Luca Torella的回答:

extension UIColor {
    convenience init(hexFromString:String, alpha:CGFloat = 1.0) {
        var cString:String = hexFromString.trimmingCharacters(in: .whitespacesAndNewlines).uppercased()
        var rgbValue:UInt32 = 10066329 //color #999999 if string has wrong format

        if (cString.hasPrefix("#")) {
            cString.remove(at: cString.startIndex)
        }

        if ((cString.count) == 6) {
            Scanner(string: cString).scanHexInt32(&rgbValue)
        }

        self.init(
            red: CGFloat((rgbValue & 0xFF0000) >> 16) / 255.0,
            green: CGFloat((rgbValue & 0x00FF00) >> 8) / 255.0,
            blue: CGFloat(rgbValue & 0x0000FF) / 255.0,
            alpha: alpha
        )
    }
}

使用例子:

let myColor = UIColor(hexFromString: "4F9BF5")

let myColor = UIColor(hexFromString: "#4F9BF5")

let myColor = UIColor(hexFromString: "#4F9BF5", alpha: 0.5)

最新swift3版本

        extension UIColor {
convenience init(hexString: String) {
    let hex = hexString.trimmingCharacters(in: CharacterSet.alphanumerics.inverted)
    var int = UInt32()
    Scanner(string: hex).scanHexInt32(&int)
    let a, r, g, b: UInt32
    switch hex.characters.count {
    case 3: // RGB (12-bit)
        (a, r, g, b) = (255, (int >> 8) * 17, (int >> 4 & 0xF) * 17, (int & 0xF) * 17)
    case 6: // RGB (24-bit)
        (a, r, g, b) = (255, int >> 16, int >> 8 & 0xFF, int & 0xFF)
    case 8: // ARGB (32-bit)
        (a, r, g, b) = (int >> 24, int >> 16 & 0xFF, int >> 8 & 0xFF, int & 0xFF)
    default:
        (a, r, g, b) = (255, 0, 0, 0)
    }
      self.init(red: CGFloat(r) / 255, green: CGFloat(g) / 255, blue:      CGFloat(b) / 255, alpha: CGFloat(a) / 255)
}
}

在你的类或任何你把hexcolor转换为uicolor的地方使用这种方法

             let color1 = UIColor(hexString: "#FF323232")

在Swift 2.0和Xcode 7.0.1中，你可以创建这个函数:

    // Creates a UIColor from a Hex string.
    func colorWithHexString (hex:String) -> UIColor {
        var cString:String = hex.stringByTrimmingCharactersInSet(NSCharacterSet.whitespaceAndNewlineCharacterSet()).uppercaseString

        if (cString.hasPrefix("#")) {
            cString = (cString as NSString).substringFromIndex(1)
        }

        if (cString.characters.count != 6) {
            return UIColor.grayColor()
        }

        let rString = (cString as NSString).substringToIndex(2)
        let gString = ((cString as NSString).substringFromIndex(2) as NSString).substringToIndex(2)
        let bString = ((cString as NSString).substringFromIndex(4) as NSString).substringToIndex(2)

        var r:CUnsignedInt = 0, g:CUnsignedInt = 0, b:CUnsignedInt = 0;
        NSScanner(string: rString).scanHexInt(&r)
        NSScanner(string: gString).scanHexInt(&g)
        NSScanner(string: bString).scanHexInt(&b)


        return UIColor(red: CGFloat(r) / 255.0, green: CGFloat(g) / 255.0, blue: CGFloat(b) / 255.0, alpha: CGFloat(1))
    }

然后这样使用它:

let color1 = colorWithHexString("#1F437C")

Swift 4更新

func colorWithHexString (hex:String) -> UIColor {

    var cString = hex.trimmingCharacters(in: CharacterSet.whitespacesAndNewlines).uppercased()

    if (cString.hasPrefix("#")) {
        cString = (cString as NSString).substring(from: 1)
    }

    if (cString.characters.count != 6) {
        return UIColor.gray
    }

    let rString = (cString as NSString).substring(to: 2)
    let gString = ((cString as NSString).substring(from: 2) as NSString).substring(to: 2)
    let bString = ((cString as NSString).substring(from: 4) as NSString).substring(to: 2)

    var r:CUnsignedInt = 0, g:CUnsignedInt = 0, b:CUnsignedInt = 0;
    Scanner(string: rString).scanHexInt32(&r)
    Scanner(string: gString).scanHexInt32(&g)
    Scanner(string: bString).scanHexInt32(&b)


    return UIColor(red: CGFloat(r) / 255.0, green: CGFloat(g) / 255.0, blue: CGFloat(b) / 255.0, alpha: CGFloat(1))
}

以编程方式添加颜色的最简单方法是使用ColorLiteral。

只要像例子中那样添加ColorLiteral属性，Xcode就会提示你一个你可以选择的颜色列表。这样做的好处是代码更少，添加HEX值或RGB。您还将从故事板中获得最近使用的颜色。

例子: self.view.backgroundColor = ColorLiteral

Swift 5 (Swift 4, Swift 3) UIColor扩展:

extension UIColor {
    convenience init(hexString: String) {
        let hex = hexString.trimmingCharacters(in: CharacterSet.alphanumerics.inverted)
        var int = UInt64()
        Scanner(string: hex).scanHexInt64(&int)
        let a, r, g, b: UInt64
        switch hex.count {
        case 3: // RGB (12-bit)
            (a, r, g, b) = (255, (int >> 8) * 17, (int >> 4 & 0xF) * 17, (int & 0xF) * 17)
        case 6: // RGB (24-bit)
            (a, r, g, b) = (255, int >> 16, int >> 8 & 0xFF, int & 0xFF)
        case 8: // ARGB (32-bit)
            (a, r, g, b) = (int >> 24, int >> 16 & 0xFF, int >> 8 & 0xFF, int & 0xFF)
        default:
            (a, r, g, b) = (255, 0, 0, 0)
        }
        self.init(red: CGFloat(r) / 255, green: CGFloat(g) / 255, blue: CGFloat(b) / 255, alpha: CGFloat(a) / 255)
    }
}

用法:

let darkGrey = UIColor(hexString: "#757575")

斯威夫特2。x版本:

extension UIColor {
    convenience init(hexString: String) {
        let hex = hexString.stringByTrimmingCharactersInSet(NSCharacterSet.alphanumericCharacterSet().invertedSet)
        var int = UInt32()
        NSScanner(string: hex).scanHexInt(&int)
        let a, r, g, b: UInt32
        switch hex.characters.count {
        case 3: // RGB (12-bit)
            (a, r, g, b) = (255, (int >> 8) * 17, (int >> 4 & 0xF) * 17, (int & 0xF) * 17)
        case 6: // RGB (24-bit)
            (a, r, g, b) = (255, int >> 16, int >> 8 & 0xFF, int & 0xFF)
        case 8: // ARGB (32-bit)
            (a, r, g, b) = (int >> 24, int >> 16 & 0xFF, int >> 8 & 0xFF, int & 0xFF)
        default:
            (a, r, g, b) = (255, 0, 0, 0)
        }
        self.init(red: CGFloat(r) / 255, green: CGFloat(g) / 255, blue: CGFloat(b) / 255, alpha: CGFloat(a) / 255)
    }
}

#ffffff实际上是16进制表示法的3个颜色组件——红色ff，绿色ff和蓝色ff。你可以在Swift中使用0x前缀编写十六进制符号，例如0xFF

为了简化转换，让我们创建一个初始化式，它接受整数(0 - 255)值:

extension UIColor {
   convenience init(red: Int, green: Int, blue: Int) {
       assert(red >= 0 && red <= 255, "Invalid red component")
       assert(green >= 0 && green <= 255, "Invalid green component")
       assert(blue >= 0 && blue <= 255, "Invalid blue component")

       self.init(red: CGFloat(red) / 255.0, green: CGFloat(green) / 255.0, blue: CGFloat(blue) / 255.0, alpha: 1.0)
   }

   convenience init(rgb: Int) {
       self.init(
           red: (rgb >> 16) & 0xFF,
           green: (rgb >> 8) & 0xFF,
           blue: rgb & 0xFF
       )
   }
}

用法:

let color = UIColor(red: 0xFF, green: 0xFF, blue: 0xFF)
let color2 = UIColor(rgb: 0xFFFFFF)

如何得到alpha?

根据您的用例，您可以简单地使用本机UIColor。withAlphaComponent方法，例如:

let semitransparentBlack = UIColor(rgb: 0x000000).withAlphaComponent(0.5)

或者你可以在上面的方法中添加一个额外的(可选的)参数:

convenience init(red: Int, green: Int, blue: Int, a: CGFloat = 1.0) {
    self.init(
        red: CGFloat(red) / 255.0,
        green: CGFloat(green) / 255.0,
        blue: CGFloat(blue) / 255.0,
        alpha: a
    )
}

convenience init(rgb: Int, a: CGFloat = 1.0) {
    self.init(
        red: (rgb >> 16) & 0xFF,
        green: (rgb >> 8) & 0xFF,
        blue: rgb & 0xFF,
        a: a
    )
}

(我们不能将参数命名为alpha，因为与现有的初始化式名称冲突)。

称为:

let color = UIColor(red: 0xFF, green: 0xFF, blue: 0xFF, a: 0.5)
let color2 = UIColor(rgb: 0xFFFFFF, a: 0.5)

为了得到0-255的整数，我们可以

convenience init(red: Int, green: Int, blue: Int, a: Int = 0xFF) {
    self.init(
        red: CGFloat(red) / 255.0,
        green: CGFloat(green) / 255.0,
        blue: CGFloat(blue) / 255.0,
        alpha: CGFloat(a) / 255.0
    )
}

// let's suppose alpha is the first component (ARGB)
convenience init(argb: Int) {
    self.init(
        red: (argb >> 16) & 0xFF,
        green: (argb >> 8) & 0xFF,
        blue: argb & 0xFF,
        a: (argb >> 24) & 0xFF
    )
}

称为

let color = UIColor(red: 0xFF, green: 0xFF, blue: 0xFF, a: 0xFF)
let color2 = UIColor(argb: 0xFFFFFFFF)

或者是前面几种方法的组合。绝对没有必要使用字符串。
