如果你想使用HEX而不是RGBA，只需拖动一个新的空的.swift并添加下面提到的代码:

     import UIKit

    extension UIColor {
        convenience init(rgba: String) {
            var red:   CGFloat = 0.0
            var green: CGFloat = 0.0
            var blue:  CGFloat = 0.0
            var alpha: CGFloat = 1.0

            if rgba.hasPrefix("#") {
                let index   = advance(rgba.startIndex, 1)
                let hex     = rgba.substringFromIndex(index)
                let scanner = NSScanner(string: hex)
                var hexValue: CUnsignedLongLong = 0
                if scanner.scanHexLongLong(&hexValue) {
                    switch (count(hex)) {
                    case 3:
                        red   = CGFloat((hexValue & 0xF00) >> 8)       / 15.0
                        green = CGFloat((hexValue & 0x0F0) >> 4)       / 15.0
                        blue  = CGFloat(hexValue & 0x00F)              / 15.0
                    case 4:
                        red   = CGFloat((hexValue & 0xF000) >> 12)     / 15.0
                        green = CGFloat((hexValue & 0x0F00) >> 8)      / 15.0
                        blue  = CGFloat((hexValue & 0x00F0) >> 4)      / 15.0
                        alpha = CGFloat(hexValue & 0x000F)             / 15.0
                    case 6:
                        red   = CGFloat((hexValue & 0xFF0000) >> 16)   / 255.0
                        green = CGFloat((hexValue & 0x00FF00) >> 8)    / 255.0
                        blue  = CGFloat(hexValue & 0x0000FF)           / 255.0
                    case 8:
                        red   = CGFloat((hexValue & 0xFF000000) >> 24) / 255.0
                        green = CGFloat((hexValue & 0x00FF0000) >> 16) / 255.0
                        blue  = CGFloat((hexValue & 0x0000FF00) >> 8)  / 255.0
                        alpha = CGFloat(hexValue & 0x000000FF)         / 255.0
                    default:
                        print("Invalid RGB string, number of characters after '#' should be either 3, 4, 6 or 8")
                    }
                } else {
                    println("Scan hex error")
                }
            } else {
                print("Invalid RGB string, missing '#' as prefix")
            }
            self.init(red:red, green:green, blue:blue, alpha:alpha)
        }
}

类似地，拖动另一个空的.swift文件并添加下面提到的代码:

    class Colors {
    let colorTop = UIColor(rgba: "##8968CD").CGColor
    let colorBottom = UIColor(rgba: "#5D478B").CGColor

    let gl: CAGradientLayer

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

然后在视图控制器中，在类下面实例化你的Color类，像这样:

let colors = Colors()

添加一个新函数:

func refresh() {
        view.backgroundColor = UIColor.clearColor()
        var backgroundLayer = colors.gl
        backgroundLayer.frame = view.frame
        view.layer.insertSublayer(backgroundLayer, atIndex: 0)
    }

在viewDidLoad中声明函数:

refresh()

你完成了:)) 如果与RGBA相比，使用HEX太容易了。: D

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)

}

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()
    }

}

如果你需要改变渐变的方向你必须使用startPoint和endPoint。

let gradient: CAGradientLayer = CAGradientLayer()

gradient.colors = [UIColor.blue.cgColor, UIColor.red.cgColor]
gradient.locations = [0.0 , 1.0]
gradient.startPoint = CGPoint(x: 0.0, y: 1.0)
gradient.endPoint = CGPoint(x: 1.0, y: 1.0)
gradient.frame = CGRect(x: 0.0, y: 0.0, width: self.view.frame.size.width, height: self.view.frame.size.height)

self.view.layer.insertSublayer(gradient, at: 0)

Xcode 11 | Swift 5

如果有人正在寻找一个快速和简单的方法来添加一个渐变视图:

extension UIView {
    
    func addGradient(colors: [UIColor] = [.blue, .white], locations: [NSNumber] = [0, 2], startPoint: CGPoint = CGPoint(x: 0.0, y: 1.0), endPoint: CGPoint = CGPoint(x: 1.0, y: 1.0), type: CAGradientLayerType = .axial){
        
        let gradient = CAGradientLayer()
        
        gradient.frame.size = self.frame.size
        gradient.frame.origin = CGPoint(x: 0.0, y: 0.0)

        // Iterates through the colors array and casts the individual elements to cgColor
        // Alternatively, one could use a CGColor Array in the first place or do this cast in a for-loop
        gradient.colors = colors.map{ $0.cgColor }
        
        gradient.locations = locations
        gradient.startPoint = startPoint
        gradient.endPoint = endPoint
        
        // Insert the new layer at the bottom-most position
        // This way we won't cover any other elements
        self.layer.insertSublayer(gradient, at: 0)
    }
}

关于如何使用扩展的例子:

// Testing
view.addGradient()
        
// Two Colors
view.addGradient(colors: [.init(rgb: 0x75BBDB), .black], locations: [0, 3])
        
// Full Blown
view.addGradient(colors: [.init(rgb: 0x75BBDB), .black], locations: [0, 3], startPoint: CGPoint(x: 0.0, y: 1.5), endPoint: CGPoint(x: 1.0, y: 2.0), type: .axial)

可选地，使用以下命令输入十六进制数字。init(rgb: 0x75BBDB)

extension UIColor {
   convenience init(red: Int, green: Int, blue: Int) {
       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
       )
   }
}
