let gradient = CAGradientLayer()
gradient.frame = CGRect(origin: CGPointZero, size: self.myButton.frame.size)
gradient.colors = [UIColor.blueColor().CGColor, UIColor.greenColor().CGColor]
let shape = CAShapeLayer()
shape.lineWidth = 2
shape.path = UIBezierPath(rect: self.myButton.bounds).CGPath
shape.strokeColor = UIColor.blackColor().CGColor
shape.fillColor = UIColor.clearColor().CGColor
gradient.mask = shape
self.myButton.layer.addSublayer(gradient)
Swift 3 version:
let gradient = CAGradientLayer()
gradient.frame = CGRect(origin: CGPoint.zero, size: self.myButton.frame.size)
gradient.colors = [UIColor.blue.cgColor, UIColor.green.cgColor]
let shape = CAShapeLayer()
shape.lineWidth = 2
shape.path = UIBezierPath(rect: self.myButton.bounds).cgPath
shape.strokeColor = UIColor.black.cgColor
shape.fillColor = UIColor.clear.cgColor
gradient.mask = shape
self.myButton.layer.addSublayer(gradient)
