iOS Tutorial => Change UIImage Color

Example

Swift Add this extension to UIImage :

extension UIImage {
    func maskWithColor(color: UIColor) -> UIImage? {
    
        let maskImage = self.CGImage
        let width = self.size.width
        let height = self.size.height
        let bounds = CGRectMake(0, 0, width, height)
    
        let colorSpace = CGColorSpaceCreateDeviceRGB()
        let bitmapInfo = CGBitmapInfo(rawValue: CGImageAlphaInfo.PremultipliedLast.rawValue)
        let bitmapContext = CGBitmapContextCreate(nil, Int(width), Int(height), 8, 0, colorSpace, bitmapInfo.rawValue) //needs rawValue of bitmapInfo
    
        CGContextClipToMask(bitmapContext, bounds, maskImage)
        CGContextSetFillColorWithColor(bitmapContext, color.CGColor)
        CGContextFillRect(bitmapContext, bounds)
    
        //is it nil?
        if let cImage = CGBitmapContextCreateImage(bitmapContext) {
            let coloredImage = UIImage(CGImage: cImage)
        
            return coloredImage
        
        } else {
            return nil
        }
    }
}
