Swift 4:结合Sulthan和Luca Torella的回答:

extension UIColor {
    convenience init(hexFromString:String, alpha:CGFloat = 1.0) {
        var cString:String = hexFromString.trimmingCharacters(in: .whitespacesAndNewlines).uppercased()
        var rgbValue:UInt32 = 10066329 //color #999999 if string has wrong format

        if (cString.hasPrefix("#")) {
            cString.remove(at: cString.startIndex)
        }

        if ((cString.count) == 6) {
            Scanner(string: cString).scanHexInt32(&rgbValue)
        }

        self.init(
            red: CGFloat((rgbValue & 0xFF0000) >> 16) / 255.0,
            green: CGFloat((rgbValue & 0x00FF00) >> 8) / 255.0,
            blue: CGFloat(rgbValue & 0x0000FF) / 255.0,
            alpha: alpha
        )
    }
}

使用例子:

let myColor = UIColor(hexFromString: "4F9BF5")

let myColor = UIColor(hexFromString: "#4F9BF5")

let myColor = UIColor(hexFromString: "#4F9BF5", alpha: 0.5)

extension UIColor {
    public convenience init?(hex: String) {
        let r, g, b, a: CGFloat

        if hex.hasPrefix("#") {
            let start = hex.index(hex.startIndex, offsetBy: 1)
            let hexColor = String(hex[start...])

            if hexColor.count == 8 {
                let scanner = Scanner(string: hexColor)
                var hexNumber: UInt64 = 0

                if scanner.scanHexInt64(&hexNumber) {
                    r = CGFloat((hexNumber & 0xff000000) >> 24) / 255
                    g = CGFloat((hexNumber & 0x00ff0000) >> 16) / 255
                    b = CGFloat((hexNumber & 0x0000ff00) >> 8) / 255
                    a = CGFloat(hexNumber & 0x000000ff) / 255

                    self.init(red: r, green: g, blue: b, alpha: a)
                    return
                }
            }
        }

        return nil
    }
}

用法:

let white = UIColor(hex: "#ffffff")

这是一个接受十六进制字符串并返回UIColor的函数。 (你可以输入十六进制字符串格式:#ffffff或ffffff)

用法:

var color1 = hexStringToUIColor("#d3d3d3")

Swift 5:(Swift 4+)

func hexStringToUIColor (hex:String) -> UIColor {
    var cString:String = hex.trimmingCharacters(in: .whitespacesAndNewlines).uppercased()

    if (cString.hasPrefix("#")) {
        cString.remove(at: cString.startIndex)
    }

    if ((cString.count) != 6) {
        return UIColor.gray
    }

    var rgbValue:UInt64 = 0
    Scanner(string: cString).scanHexInt64(&rgbValue)

    return UIColor(
        red: CGFloat((rgbValue & 0xFF0000) >> 16) / 255.0,
        green: CGFloat((rgbValue & 0x00FF00) >> 8) / 255.0,
        blue: CGFloat(rgbValue & 0x0000FF) / 255.0,
        alpha: CGFloat(1.0)
    )
}

编辑:更新代码。谢谢，Hlung, jaytrixz, Ahmad F, Kegham K和Adam Waite!

这是UIColor的一个Swift扩展，它采用十六进制字符串:

import UIKit

extension UIColor {

    convenience init(hexString: String) {
        // Trim leading '#' if needed
        var cleanedHexString = hexString
        if hexString.hasPrefix("#") {
//            cleanedHexString = dropFirst(hexString) // Swift 1.2
            cleanedHexString = String(hexString.characters.dropFirst()) // Swift 2
        }

        // String -> UInt32
        var rgbValue: UInt32 = 0
        NSScanner(string: cleanedHexString).scanHexInt(&rgbValue)

        // UInt32 -> R,G,B
        let red = CGFloat((rgbValue >> 16) & 0xff) / 255.0
        let green = CGFloat((rgbValue >> 08) & 0xff) / 255.0
        let blue = CGFloat((rgbValue >> 00) & 0xff) / 255.0

        self.init(red: red, green: green, blue: blue, alpha: 1.0)
    }

}

extension UIColor {

      convenience init(hex: Int, alpha: Double = 1.0) {

      self.init(red: CGFloat((hex>>16)&0xFF)/255.0, green:CGFloat((hex>>8)&0xFF)/255.0, blue: CGFloat((hex)&0xFF)/255.0, alpha:  CGFloat(255 * alpha) / 255)
     }
}

使用这个扩展像:

let selectedColor = UIColor(hex: 0xFFFFFF)
let selectedColor = UIColor(hex: 0xFFFFFF, alpha: 0.5)

在Swift 2.0和Xcode 7.0.1中，你可以创建这个函数:

    // Creates a UIColor from a Hex string.
    func colorWithHexString (hex:String) -> UIColor {
        var cString:String = hex.stringByTrimmingCharactersInSet(NSCharacterSet.whitespaceAndNewlineCharacterSet()).uppercaseString

        if (cString.hasPrefix("#")) {
            cString = (cString as NSString).substringFromIndex(1)
        }

        if (cString.characters.count != 6) {
            return UIColor.grayColor()
        }

        let rString = (cString as NSString).substringToIndex(2)
        let gString = ((cString as NSString).substringFromIndex(2) as NSString).substringToIndex(2)
        let bString = ((cString as NSString).substringFromIndex(4) as NSString).substringToIndex(2)

        var r:CUnsignedInt = 0, g:CUnsignedInt = 0, b:CUnsignedInt = 0;
        NSScanner(string: rString).scanHexInt(&r)
        NSScanner(string: gString).scanHexInt(&g)
        NSScanner(string: bString).scanHexInt(&b)


        return UIColor(red: CGFloat(r) / 255.0, green: CGFloat(g) / 255.0, blue: CGFloat(b) / 255.0, alpha: CGFloat(1))
    }

然后这样使用它:

let color1 = colorWithHexString("#1F437C")

Swift 4更新

func colorWithHexString (hex:String) -> UIColor {

    var cString = hex.trimmingCharacters(in: CharacterSet.whitespacesAndNewlines).uppercased()

    if (cString.hasPrefix("#")) {
        cString = (cString as NSString).substring(from: 1)
    }

    if (cString.characters.count != 6) {
        return UIColor.gray
    }

    let rString = (cString as NSString).substring(to: 2)
    let gString = ((cString as NSString).substring(from: 2) as NSString).substring(to: 2)
    let bString = ((cString as NSString).substring(from: 4) as NSString).substring(to: 2)

    var r:CUnsignedInt = 0, g:CUnsignedInt = 0, b:CUnsignedInt = 0;
    Scanner(string: rString).scanHexInt32(&r)
    Scanner(string: gString).scanHexInt32(&g)
    Scanner(string: bString).scanHexInt32(&b)


    return UIColor(red: CGFloat(r) / 255.0, green: CGFloat(g) / 255.0, blue: CGFloat(b) / 255.0, alpha: CGFloat(1))
}
