对于那些想要Objective C版本的答案的人。经过测试，在iOS13上运行

// Done here so that constraints have completed and the frame is correct.
- (void) viewDidLayoutSubviews { 
    [super viewDidLayoutSubviews];
    UIColor *colorTop = [UIColor colorWithRed:(CGFloat)192.0/255.0 green: 38.0/255.0 blue: 42.0/255.0 alpha:1.0];
    UIColor *colorBottom = [UIColor colorWithRed: 35.0/255.0 green: 2.0/255.0 blue: 2.0/255.0 alpha: 1.0];
    CAGradientLayer *gl = [CAGradientLayer new];
    [gl setColors:@[(id)[colorTop CGColor], (id)[colorBottom CGColor]]];
    [gl setLocations:@[@0.0f, @1.0f]];
    self.view.backgroundColor = [UIColor clearColor];
    CALayer *backgroundLayer = gl;
    backgroundLayer.frame = self.view.frame;
    [self.view.layer insertSublayer:backgroundLayer atIndex: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]
    }
}

我想添加一个渐变到一个视图，然后使用自动布局锚定它。

    class GradientView: UIView {

    private let gradient: CAGradientLayer = {
        let layer = CAGradientLayer()
        let topColor: UIColor = UIColor(red:0.98, green:0.96, blue:0.93, alpha:0.5)
        let bottomColor: UIColor = UIColor.white
        layer.colors = [topColor.cgColor, bottomColor.cgColor]
        layer.locations = [0,1]
        return layer
    }()

    init() {
        super.init(frame: .zero)
        gradient.frame = frame
        layer.insertSublayer(gradient, at: 0)
    }

    required init?(coder aDecoder: NSCoder) {
        fatalError("init(coder:) has not been implemented")
    }

    override func layoutSubviews() {
        super.layoutSubviews()
        gradient.frame = bounds

    }
}

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)

}

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)

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)
    }
}
