Here's an example written in Swift 3:

let barButtonItem = UIBarButtonItem(image: UIImage(named: "image_path"), style: UIBarButtonItemStyle.done, target: self, action: #selector(ViewController.didTapBarButtonItem))
barButtonItem.tintColor = YOUR_COLOR_HERE
navigationItem.rightBarButtonItem = barButtonItem

You place this in the viewDidLoad method of your view controller.
