":help 'swapfile'" says, "This option can be reset when a swapfile
is not wanted for a specific buffer."  So, something like this in
your ~/.vimrc should work.  (Untested)

    au BufNewFile,BufRead /path/to/directory/* setlocal noswapfile

That will handle files _in_ a certain directory.  I think changing
the pattern to /path/to/directory/** will handle files in that
directory and below.
