JavaScript heap out of memory in Angular 7 using Azure DevOps

Question

I'm receiving the following error: FATAL ERROR: CALL_AND_RETRY_LAST  After upgrading to Angular 7.1, the allocation failed because the JavaScript heap was out of memory. The prior version, 6.1, worked flawlessly.

Only when I perform the ng build —prod command in Azure DevOps do I get the problem. In local, it works perfectly. Please help.

Answer 1

Try running the prod build as follows:

node --max_old_space_size=5048 ./node_modules/@angular/cli/bin/ng build --prod
