On one of my all snaps devices I had the need to create swap space but wanted it in place on reboot so I created a devmode snap: https://code.launchpad.net/~jdstrand/+git/swaps This is a throwaway snap for 'managing' (trying not to oversell this thing ;) swap files (as opposed to swap partitions) that I created for myself until snappy supported this properly but feel free to use/steal/improve it to unblock yourself. I'm not sure what the plans are here: whether it is a gadget thing, a snap config thing for the core snap or something else. If people think managing swap by 'type: app' snaps is useful as an interface (eg, 'swap-control') let me know and I can submit a PR. -- Jamie Strandboge | http://www.canonical.com
