HexColor

HexColor is a simple extension that lets you initialize UIColors the way they were meant to be initialized: With hex integer values.

Requirements

• iOS 7.0
• Xcode 7.0 (Swift 2.0)

Installation

To use HexColor with a project targeting iOS 7, simply copy HexColor.swift into your project.

CocoaPods

CocoaPods 0.36 adds supports for Swift and embedded frameworks. To integrate HexColor into your project add the following to your Podfile:

platform :ios, '8.0'
use_frameworks!

pod 'HxColor', '~> 2.0'

Carthage

To integrate Signals into your project using Carthage add the following to your Cartfile:

github "artman/HexColor" ~> 2.0

Quick start

myLabel.textColor = UIColor(0xFFFFFF) // Let there be white
myView.backgroundColor = UIColor(0x0f126f) // Deep blue

// Yay, finally you can stop to use this crap:
// UIColor.colorWithRed(0x0f/255.0, green: 0x12/255.0, blue: 0x65/255.0, 1.0)

Need colors with alpha? No worries:

myLabel.textColor = UIColor(0xFF0000).alpha(0.5) // Red with 50% opacity
myLabel.textColor = UIColor(0xFF0000, alpha: 0.5) // Another way to do this

You can also mix two colors together easily:

myLabel.textColor = UIColor(0x3377FF).mixWithColor(0xFF2222, amount: 0.25)
