Is there a way to put swap stataus in i3status bar?

I can't seem to find a way to put swap status, usage/total, in i3status bar. Does anyone know about this?

Thanks.

Doesn't look like the "Memory" module has a swap option so I think you'll have to wrap a script around it that parses /proc/meminfo for SwapTotal & SwapFree to print the information you want.

See https://man.archlinux.org/man/i3status. … H_I3STATUS for a trivial example of this.
