# Always find my self creating 1G swapfile for tiny EC2 machines (I know I should rely only on RAM, but the free ssd is there | |
# and it had saved my life in the past), and not getting better at recalling each step. | |

# Oneliner: | |
# sudo fallocate -l 1G /swapfile ; sudo chmod 600 /swapfile ; sudo mkswap /swapfile ; sudo swapon /swapfile ; echo '/swapfile none swap sw 0 0' | sudo tee -a /etc/fstab ; swapon --show | |
if [ "$EUID" -ne 0 ] | |
then echo "Please run as root" | |
exit | |

fallocate -l 1G /swapfile | |
chmod 600 /swapfile | |
mkswap /swapfile | |
swapon /swapfile | |
echo '/swapfile none swap sw 0 0' | sudo tee -a /etc/fstab | |
