Gradient View
Easily use gradients in UIKit. Gradient View is a simple UIView wrapper around CGGradient.
Gradient View is tested on iOS 8. Released under the MIT license.
Usage
// Initialize a gradient view
let gradientView = GradientView(frame: CGRectMake(x: 20, y: 20, width: 280, height: 280))
// Set the gradient colors
gradientView.colors = [UIColor.greenColor(), UIColor.yellowColor()]
// Optionally set some locations
gradientView.locations = [0.8, 1.0]
// Optionally change the direction. The default is vertical.
gradientView.direction = .Horizontal
// Add some borders too if you want
gradientView.topBorderColor = UIColor.redColor()
gradientView.bottomBorderColor = UIColor.blueColor()
// Add it as a subview in all of its awesome
view.addSubview(gradientView)
See the source for full documentation.
