易于使用的扩展swift 3

extension CALayer {
    func addGradienBorder(colors:[UIColor] = [UIColor.red,UIColor.blue], width:CGFloat = 1) {
        let gradientLayer = CAGradientLayer()
        gradientLayer.frame =  CGRect(origin: .zero, size: self.bounds.size)
        gradientLayer.startPoint = CGPoint(x:0.0, y:0.5)
        gradientLayer.endPoint = CGPoint(x:1.0, y:0.5)
        gradientLayer.colors = colors.map({$0.cgColor})

        let shapeLayer = CAShapeLayer()
        shapeLayer.lineWidth = width
        shapeLayer.path = UIBezierPath(rect: self.bounds).cgPath
        shapeLayer.fillColor = nil
        shapeLayer.strokeColor = UIColor.black.cgColor
        gradientLayer.mask = shapeLayer

        self.addSublayer(gradientLayer)
    }
}

用你的观点，例子

yourView.addGradienBorder(color: UIColor.black, opacity: 0.1, offset: CGSize(width:2 , height: 5), radius: 3, viewCornerRadius: 3.0)

Xcode 11•Swift 5.1

你可以像下面这样设计你自己的渐变视图:

@IBDesignable
public class Gradient: UIView {
    @IBInspectable var startColor:   UIColor = .black { didSet { updateColors() }}
    @IBInspectable var endColor:     UIColor = .white { didSet { updateColors() }}
    @IBInspectable var startLocation: Double =   0.05 { didSet { updateLocations() }}
    @IBInspectable var endLocation:   Double =   0.95 { didSet { updateLocations() }}
    @IBInspectable var horizontalMode:  Bool =  false { didSet { updatePoints() }}
    @IBInspectable var diagonalMode:    Bool =  false { didSet { updatePoints() }}

    override public class var layerClass: AnyClass { CAGradientLayer.self }

    var gradientLayer: CAGradientLayer { layer as! CAGradientLayer }

    func updatePoints() {
        if horizontalMode {
            gradientLayer.startPoint = diagonalMode ? .init(x: 1, y: 0) : .init(x: 0, y: 0.5)
            gradientLayer.endPoint   = diagonalMode ? .init(x: 0, y: 1) : .init(x: 1, y: 0.5)
        } else {
            gradientLayer.startPoint = diagonalMode ? .init(x: 0, y: 0) : .init(x: 0.5, y: 0)
            gradientLayer.endPoint   = diagonalMode ? .init(x: 1, y: 1) : .init(x: 0.5, y: 1)
        }
    }
    func updateLocations() {
        gradientLayer.locations = [startLocation as NSNumber, endLocation as NSNumber]
    }
    func updateColors() {
        gradientLayer.colors = [startColor.cgColor, endColor.cgColor]
    }
    override public func traitCollectionDidChange(_ previousTraitCollection: UITraitCollection?) {
        super.traitCollectionDidChange(previousTraitCollection)
        updatePoints()
        updateLocations()
        updateColors()
    }

}

很容易

    // MARK: - Gradient
extension CAGradientLayer {
    enum Point {
        case topLeft
        case centerLeft
        case bottomLeft
        case topCenter
        case center
        case bottomCenter
        case topRight
        case centerRight
        case bottomRight
        var point: CGPoint {
            switch self {
            case .topLeft:
                return CGPoint(x: 0, y: 0)
            case .centerLeft:
                return CGPoint(x: 0, y: 0.5)
            case .bottomLeft:
                return CGPoint(x: 0, y: 1.0)
            case .topCenter:
                return CGPoint(x: 0.5, y: 0)
            case .center:
                return CGPoint(x: 0.5, y: 0.5)
            case .bottomCenter:
                return CGPoint(x: 0.5, y: 1.0)
            case .topRight:
                return CGPoint(x: 1.0, y: 0.0)
            case .centerRight:
                return CGPoint(x: 1.0, y: 0.5)
            case .bottomRight:
                return CGPoint(x: 1.0, y: 1.0)
            }
        }
    }
    convenience init(start: Point, end: Point, colors: [CGColor], type: CAGradientLayerType) {
        self.init()
        self.startPoint = start.point
        self.endPoint = end.point
        self.colors = colors
        self.locations = (0..<colors.count).map(NSNumber.init)
        self.type = type
    }
}

像这样使用:-

let fistColor = UIColor.white
let lastColor = UIColor.black
let gradient = CAGradientLayer(start: .topLeft, end: .topRight, colors: [fistColor.cgColor, lastColor.cgColor], type: .radial)
gradient.frame = yourView.bounds
yourView.layer.addSublayer(gradient)

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]
    }
}

有一个名为Chameleon (https://github.com/viccalexander/Chameleon)的库可以用于渐变颜色。它甚至有渐变的风格来实现。这就是如何在swift 4 podfile中添加它 “变色龙框架/Swift”，:git => 'https://github.com/ViccAlexander/Chameleon.git'，:branch => 'wip/swift4'

import ChameleonFramework

let colors:[UIColor] = [
  UIColor.flatPurpleColorDark(), 
  UIColor.flatWhiteColor()
]
view.backgroundColor = GradientColor(.TopToBottom, frame: view.frame, colors: colors)

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)
    }
}
