在Swift3试试这个:

 func addGradient(){

    let gradient:CAGradientLayer = CAGradientLayer()
    gradient.frame.size = self.viewThatHoldsGradient.frame.size
    gradient.colors = [UIColor.white.cgColor,UIColor.white.withAlphaComponent(0).cgColor] //Or any colors
    self.viewThatHoldsGradient.layer.addSublayer(gradient)

}

如果你有视图集合(多视图)，请这样做

  func setGradientBackground() {
    let v:UIView
    for v in viewgradian
    //here viewgradian is your view Collection Outlet name
    {
        let layer:CALayer
        var arr = [AnyObject]()
        for layer in v.layer.sublayers!
        {
           arr.append(layer)
        }

        let colorTop = UIColor(red: 216.0/255.0, green: 240.0/255.0, blue: 244.0/255.0, alpha: 1.0).cgColor
        let colorBottom = UIColor(red: 255.0/255.0, green: 255.0/255.0, blue: 255.0/255.0, alpha: 1.0).cgColor
        let gradientLayer = CAGradientLayer()
        gradientLayer.colors = [ colorBottom, colorTop]
        gradientLayer.startPoint = CGPoint(x: 1.0, y: 0.0)
        gradientLayer.endPoint = CGPoint(x: 0.0, y: 1.0)
        gradientLayer.frame = v.bounds
        v.layer.insertSublayer(gradientLayer, at: 0)
    }
}

你提供给渐变的颜色必须是CGColor类型。设置CGColor数组为gl。colors。

正确的代码是:

class Colors {
    var gl:CAGradientLayer!

    init() {
        let colorTop = UIColor(red: 192.0 / 255.0, green: 38.0 / 255.0, blue: 42.0 / 255.0, alpha: 1.0).cgColor
        let colorBottom = UIColor(red: 35.0 / 255.0, green: 2.0 / 255.0, blue: 2.0 / 255.0, alpha: 1.0).cgColor

        self.gl = CAGradientLayer()
        self.gl.colors = [colorTop, colorBottom]
        self.gl.locations = [0.0, 1.0]
    }
}

试试这个，对我很有效，

  var gradientView = UIView(frame: CGRect(x: 0, y: 0, width: 320, height: 35))
  let gradientLayer:CAGradientLayer = CAGradientLayer()
  gradientLayer.frame.size = self.gradientView.frame.size
  gradientLayer.colors = 
  [UIColor.white.cgColor,UIColor.red.withAlphaComponent(1).cgColor] 
  //Use diffrent colors
  gradientView.layer.addSublayer(gradientLayer)

你可以添加渐变颜色的起点和终点。

    gradientLayer.startPoint = CGPoint(x: 0.0, y: 1.0)
    gradientLayer.endPoint = CGPoint(x: 1.0, y: 1.0)

希望这是对某人的帮助。

这是一个快速扩展，你可以通过任意数量的颜色。在插入一个渐变图层之前，它会删除之前的任何渐变图层，如果需要的话，它会返回新插入的渐变图层进行进一步的操作:

    extension UIView {

    /**
     Given an Array of CGColor, it will:
        - Remove all sublayers of type CAGradientLayer.
        - Create and insert a new CAGradientLayer.

     - Parameters: 
        - colors: An Array of CGColor with the colors for the gradient fill

     - Returns: The newly created gradient CAGradientLayer
     */
    func layerGradient(colors c:[CGColor])->CAGradientLayer {
        self.layer.sublayers = self.layer.sublayers?.filter(){!($0 is CAGradientLayer)}
        let layer : CAGradientLayer = CAGradientLayer()
        layer.frame.size = self.frame.size
        layer.frame.origin = CGPointZero
        layer.colors = c
        self.layer.insertSublayer(layer, atIndex: 0)
        return layer
    }
}

SwiftUI:你可以使用线性梯度结构作为ZStack的第一个元素。作为ZStack的“底部”，它将作为背景色。AngularGradient和RadialGradient也可用。

import SwiftUI

struct ContentView: View {
    var body: some View {
        ZStack {
            LinearGradient(gradient: Gradient(colors: [.red, .blue]), startPoint: .top, endPoint: .bottom)
                .edgesIgnoringSafeArea(.all)
            // Put other content here; it will appear on top of the background gradient
        }
    }
}
