你可以创建UIColor的扩展类:-

扩展UIColor {

// MARK: - getColorFromHex ／** 此函数将颜色十六进制代码转换为RGB。

- parameter color  hex string.

- returns: RGB color code.
*/
class func getColorFromHex(hexString:String)->UIColor{

    var rgbValue : UInt32 = 0
    let scanner:NSScanner =  NSScanner(string: hexString)

    scanner.scanLocation = 1
    scanner.scanHexInt(&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))
}

}

swift 1.2更新

class func colorWithHexString (hex:String) -> UIColor {
    var cString: NSString = hex.stringByTrimmingCharactersInSet(NSCharacterSet.whitespaceAndNewlineCharacterSet()).uppercaseString

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

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

    var rString: String = cString.substringToIndex(2)
    var gString: String = (cString.substringFromIndex(2) as NSString).substringToIndex(2)
    var bString: String = (cString.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(Float(r) / 255.0), green: CGFloat(Float(g) / 255.0), blue: CGFloat(Float(b) / 255.0), alpha: CGFloat(1))

}

有cocoapod支持，这很好

https://github.com/mRs-/HexColors

// with hash
NSColor *colorWithHex = [NSColor colorWithHexString:@"#ff8942" alpha:1];

// wihtout hash
NSColor *secondColorWithHex = [NSColor colorWithHexString:@"ff8942" alpha:1];

// short handling
NSColor *shortColorWithHex = [NSColor colorWithHexString:@"fff" alpha:1]

Swift 2.0版本的解决方案，将处理alpha值的颜色和完美的错误处理:

func RGBColor(hexColorStr : String) -> UIColor?{

    var red:CGFloat = 0.0
    var green:CGFloat = 0.0
    var blue:CGFloat = 0.0
    var alpha:CGFloat = 1.0

    if hexColorStr.hasPrefix("#"){

        let index   = hexColorStr.startIndex.advancedBy(1)
        let hex     = hexColorStr.substringFromIndex(index)
        let scanner = NSScanner(string: hex)
        var hexValue: CUnsignedLongLong = 0

        if scanner.scanHexLongLong(&hexValue)
        {
            if hex.characters.count == 6
            {
                red   = CGFloat((hexValue & 0xFF0000) >> 16) / 255.0
                green = CGFloat((hexValue & 0x00FF00) >> 8)  / 255.0
                blue  = CGFloat(hexValue & 0x0000FF) / 255.0
            }
            else if hex.characters.count == 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
            }
            else
            {
                print("invalid hex code string, length should be 7 or 9", terminator: "")
                return nil
            }
        }
        else
        {
            print("scan hex error")
       return nil
        }
    }

    let color: UIColor =  UIColor(red:CGFloat(red), green: CGFloat(green), blue:CGFloat(blue), alpha: alpha)
    return color
}

self.view.backgroundColor = colorWithHex(hex: yourColorCode)

从hexaDecimalCode创建颜色的代码

func colorWithHex (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:UInt32 = 0
    Scanner(string: cString).scanHexInt32(&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)
    )
}

据我所知，没有从十六进制字符串到UIColor(或CGColor)的内置转换。但是，您可以很容易地为此目的编写几个函数—例如，参见iphone开发访问uicolor组件
