Gradient Roulette
RandientView is a simple view that will display a randomly selected gradient from the uiGradients catalog.
let randientView = RandientView()
randientView.frame = CGRect(x: 0, y: 0, width: 100, height: 100)
view.addSubview(randientView)Updating to a new gradient is as simple as...
randientView.randomize(animated: true)Those wonderful gradients
An enum of all the gradients from uiGradients is generated every time that Randient is built.
These are available as an enum via UIGradient.
let gradient = UIGradient.royalBlue
let colors = gradient.data.colorsIf you're feeling lucky, a randomized UIGradient can also be retrieved.
let randomGradient = Randient.randomize()The raw stuff
Each UIGradient has associated Data which can be accessed via .data.
struct Data {
public let name: String
public let colors: [UIColor]
}Metadata is also available, accessible via .metadata.
struct Metadata {
public let isPredominantlyLight: Bool
}Gradient View
RandientView inherits from GradientView, which under the hood uses simply uses a CAGradientLayer for rendering gradients.
GradientView provides the following:
.colors: [UIColor]?- Colors of the gradient..locations: [Double]?- Locations of each gradient stop..startPoint: CGPoint- Start point of the gradient (Defaults to0.5, 0.0)..endPoint: CGPoint- End point of the gradient (Defaults to0.5, 1.0).
